Oh, aging. It happens to everyone. Many people begin to see signs of aging as early as their 30s. The skin begins to lose its elasticity, and many men and women begin to notice sagging or drooping around the cheeks, jowls, and neck area. While a traditional facelift is appropriate for those who are looking to reduce wrinkles and sagging throughout their entire face, a mini facelift is intended for younger patients who wish to take preventive measures instead of waiting to undergo a more intensive surgery. At Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, we understand the effects aging and the sun have on the facial skin. A mini facelift surgery can restore the appearance of youth by greatly decreasing the effects of early aging on the face.
A mini facelift is commonly referred to as a “weekend” facelift because the incisions are quite small and the recovery period is much quicker. The mini facelift is one of the least invasive procedures in facial surgery because it involves minimal cutting of the skin. As the skin ages, several changes also occur. Loosening and descending of fatty tissues, loss of elasticity, loss of fatty tissue, and natural changes in the facial structure all combine to result in a face that appears tired and older. Meeting with a plastic surgeon who is an expert in the face such as Dr. Benjamin C. Stong is essential to acquiring optimal results. Dr. Stong is qualified and experienced in mini facelift procedures and can create a youthful, beautiful, and natural facial appearance.
