I'm still relatively young, but was seeing greater premature agging/sagging in my midface area from lack of fullness in and effect of gravity on my cheeks. I had requested a mini cheek lift from a few surgeons who said I was too young/didn't need it/wouldn't benefit from it before I finally had a positive consultation with Dr. Standefer. He listened to my concerns and really took the time to see whether correction could be made with a mini cheek lift. Upon evaluation, he agreed he could give me a positive yet subtle result, and he thoroughly explained to me what to expect throughout the process. The procedure went very well and did not require general anesthesia. I have since healed well over the past month and am happy with the subtle, yet good result. No one has looked at me and asked what I had done, yet when I look in the mirror...I can see and feel the positive difference. I feel that my face looks refreshed and less aged without looking at all unnatural. I would not hesitate to return to Dr. Standefer for any procedures or treatments I might find necessary in the future!

I have the same issue you describe. Can you tell me where he placed your incisions? Can you see a scar at all?
