Perhaps you made up your mind to undergo a surgical Facelift to get rid of facial wrinkles and sagginess. However, you may have difficulties in deciding which surgical approach is right for your facial concerns. Undoubtedly, both of the methods can give you great results. But which method is the best for you? In this post, I will describe the differences between a Mini-face lift and a Facelift.
What is the main difference between a Mini-face lift and a Facelift?
The facelift is a traditional surgery that involves a long incision made around and behind the ears. In a contrast, Mini-face lift is less invasive and is suitable for younger patients who have just started to notice the first signs of aging with a mild skin sagginess. Moreover, if you don’t have much time for a fast recovery period Mini-face lift may be the best option for you. In fact, it takes twice as fast to recover from the Mini-face lift.
In contrast, a Full facelift is advised for people with moderate to high skin sagginess. It mainly lifts the lower two-thirds of the face and improves the jawline. The results are long-lasting and can significantly improve your looks. However, the recovery period takes around 2 weeks.
To choose which type of surgery suits you better, we recommend you get a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. The doctor will describe in detail what to expect from the surgery and tailor it to your specific needs.
