I turn 30 soon and I am really considering a mini lift. Although the most comfortable in my body I've ever been, my face looks a lot older than I am. In the last 10 years I smoked a lot, slept very little and with the bonus of genetics, my face has sagged quite a lot for my age. I've always looked older but it's becoming noticeably worse. My eyes are hollow with dark circles (genetics again) and always carried weight on my lower cheeks. Would a mini lift remove these without being obvious?
Answer: Mini face lift expectations You still have a beautiful look. I think 30 years-old is too young for facelifting surgery. I'd be looking more at adding volume to your face (HA fillers, or perhaps fat transfer). The best thing you could possibly do for your face (and overall health) is to work on smoking cessation. That ages our skin terribly fast. Best wishes.

CONTACT NOW Answer: What a mini lift can do A Mini lift is designed to tighten and re drape the jawline and neck skin. It is meant to do this in the least invasive way possible. This is done by shortening the skin incisions and limiting the amount of skin that is undermined relative to a formal facelift. As a result the surgery is quicker, the anesthesia required is lighter and the recovery time is shorter. It is not as powerful a lift as can be achieved from a traditional full facelift so its more appropriate for a younger age group that doesn't need as big a pull. Facial volumization is another useful tool. It does not tighten or re-drape the skin but can add fullness and shape to areas of the face that can deflate with age or weight loss. This is achieved by injecting commercial fillers or a patients own fat into the deflated areas. The effect of Volume can enhance the results of facelift surgery and for some patients it's really all they need.I would recommend you consult with a practice that does all of these treatments so you get an unbiased opinion as to what would be most h helpful for you.Good luck!

Answer: Mini-Facelift Hi and thanks for your question and photos. Yes, you are on the young side for surgery, but it does appear that you would benefit from a mini-facelift. You don't need a bigger traditional facelift. Good luck.

Answer: Facelift Under Local Anaesthetic Thank you for your pictures. You would need an examination to see how lax your skin was, however from the pictures I can see some elasticity, a facelift under local anaesthetic maybe a good option for you. Most of my patient want a facelift however do not want the downtime associated. The Concept Facelift is the procedure I perform, which combines the latest surgical techniques with the use of local anaesthetic to dramatically reduce the risks associated with traditional facelifts, while significantly reducing the bruising and downtime of your recovery, from months to a matter of days.

Answer: Options for facial rejuvenation Thank you for the pictures. I do see that you have volume loss in the cheek area and you have mild jowling or sagging skin along your jawline. You may be a candidate for a milift and I would consider some kind of facial volumizing such as a facial fat transfer (once again, its hard to tell without examining you). Another options would be to consider something noninvasive for lower face skin tightening such as Ultherapy. That may also lift, tone and tighten enough to give you the results you are looking for.
