Full facelift or mini facelift (plus upper eyelids)?

A lot of it depends on what your definition of mini or full is.  They mean different things to different people.  Mini facelifts often produce disappointing results because they skip important steps.  Judging by your photo, I would definitely perform a full facelift.

Thank you for your question and photos.  The quick answer is that you would be much better served with a full facelift.  The more involved answer is that there is no real definition of what a "mini" facelift is.  It is a term that to some surgeons means a shorter scar or sometimes the scar is placed a little differently to save time.  To others, it means that the tissues are not lifted as much or the dissection of the tissues is less extensive.  Regardless, your lower face and neck will be challenging because of the amount of tissue.  You will almost certainly be disappointed with anything less than the "best" procedure someone can offer you for lower facial rejuvenation.  All the best!

there are three areas that we look at:skin surfacevolumelaxity of skin an muscleThese can all be addressed for you to get some rejuvenation.

I suggest you consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon
to receive the highest quality knowledge, treatment, care and skill available.

A consultation provides you the opportunity to relay your
concerns and desired outcome to the surgeon while the surgeon can assess your
health profile and discuss his/her pertinent advice.

You really need to go for live evaluations. There are many different opinions you are going to get from thois type of forum. Yet none of them can do you justice without a surgeon being able to move your tissues to see how they respond, and to be sure of exactly what your goals are. good luck.
