Understanding Facial Aging and Mini Facelift Solutions

A mini-facelift is an aesthetic procedure designed to correct sagging in the jawline, cheeks, and neck. This less invasive alternative to traditional facelifts offers effective results with reduced postoperative recovery time.

What Happens to Skin as We Age?

As we enter our 40s, skin support structures like collagen and elastin become less effective. This reduction leads to decreased skin elasticity and visible sagging in areas like the jawline and nasolabial folds.

Mini Facelift vs. Traditional Facelift

• Focuses on lower face region
• Recommended for patients under 50
• Shorter surgical time (approximately two hours)
• Faster recovery compared to full facelift
• Can be performed with local anesthesia

Ideal Candidates for Mini Facelift

Patients experiencing early signs of aging such as mild to moderate facial sagging are excellent candidates. Dr. Zarrabi recommends this procedure for individuals seeking subtle, natural-looking facial rejuvenation.

Procedure Details

Dr. Zarrabi performs the mini facelift using carefully concealed incisions around the ear. The procedure involves manipulating underlying facial tissues to achieve a lifted, youthful appearance with minimal scarring.

Recovery and Results

Recovery typically takes two to four weeks. Patients can expect mild discomfort and swelling, which subsides within the first week. Final results become apparent after approximately four weeks, with continued improvement over time.

Cost Considerations

Mini facelift costs vary based on individual needs. Factors influencing pricing include anesthesia and postoperative care. Financing options are available for qualified candidates.
