A midface lift is a procedure aimed at elevating the cheeks. A 'regular facelift' generally refers to a facial rejuvenation procedure aimed at improving the jowl (lower jawline) or neck area. A mini-lift is a minimal incision lower facelift which usually is used to adress the jowl area.
A midface lift can be performed using several techniques with various incisions. Silicone or other implants can be placed through incisions in the mouth to add volume to the cheeks. Fats can be transferred from the thighs or the abdomen to add lost volume. Finally, the cheek tissues can be lifted either through a lower eyelid incision or a hairline incision to recreate a more youthful and full cheek.
