I am very interested in the mini face lift because it is less invasive than a regular face lift.

05/03/2011 by Dr. Bentkover

Question:
I am very interested in the mini face lift because it is less invasive than a regular face lift. Most of my issues are with the lower half of my face, my neck, lower cheeks and jowls, so I think I am a good candidate for this surgery. How does the mini face lift differ surgically from the traditional face lift?

Answer:
Hate to be the bearer of potentially bad news, but if you have an issue with jowls and your neck, a full lower face lift may be the best operation for you.  Most “most mini lifts” are cheek lifts.  They mostly tighten your jawline.  A submental platysmaplasty  tightens the skin and muscles under your chin.  A neck lift tightens the entire neck.  These are also “mini lifts” when done as individually.  Both also usually include some liposuction of the neck.  I would be happy to look at some photos to give you an educated guess as to what you need.  You can contact us at [email protected].  Also, here is a link to our page on mini lifts.  It explains the whole subject pretty clearly:  http://www.drbentkover.com/procedures/mini-facelift
