I have been researching different options to address skin laxity. I m really not interested in a full facelift, but in reading material about the mini, I am wondering if this might be a viable option. 68 years old, healthy and good skincare regime. These photos are from when I was a pdo thread training model in February, 2020. My question is: How long does a skin only lift last? I have had a plastic surgeon say one year but read 2-6 years. That is a considerable difference. ???

Answer: An Advanced Lower Face/Neck MiniLift is your best option by far. You need a lower face/neck minilift which lifts not only skin but muscle as well. It is done under local with a little iv sedation for complete comfort. Skin lifts alone don't last more than 3-6 months. That is why LifeStylelifts went bankrupt. Expect to pay roughly $15-20,000 for a great lift with natural results and dramatic results.

Answer: The problem with skin-only lifts A skin-only lift is a procedure that was performed when facelifts were first introduced. The procedure is limited to removing redundant skin without repositioning any of the underlying structure. In addition to not lasting long, these procedures produced a very unnatural, windswept appearance. I offer both a traditional facelift and a mini facelift, depending on the amount of correction each patient requires. Both procedures work into the deep structure (SMAS) to move muscle and fat to a very natural position before tightening the skin. Results from mini facelifts last 5-8 years. Always work with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure the best possible results.
