Mini Facelift

Mini facelifts are a great way for women to remove wrinkles and reverse the effects of aging. They are usually much more affordable than full facelifts and often just as affective. If you are a woman that has been looking for a way to turn back time or to fix a part of your face that has been bothering you as you age, then consider getting a mini facelift. A mini facelift can help completely prevent signs of further aging will reversing the signs that already exist.

The Mini Facelift Procedure

The mini facelift procedure will help you fix any problems that aging has caused in certain parts of your face. The most popularly targeted facial areas are the neck, jaw line, and nose. With a mini face lift a plastic surgeon will make a small incision near the problem area and lift the skin and muscle tissue. This will give you a more youthful appearance by helping you achieve a browlift or fixing any other part of your body.

Recovery after a Mini facelift

Since the mini facelift is still a cosmetic surgery expect to spend some time recovering from it. Since it is less invasive than a full facelift you recovery time will be shorter. In most cases expect to be off of your feet for two to three days. During this time take any pain medication that has been prescribed to you and follow any instructions that your plastic surgeon has given you.

Cost of a Mini Facelift

Mini facelifts cost less than a full facelift but still expect to pay a decent amount of money. In most cases expect to pay half of what you would pay for a full facelift in your area. The final cost will usually be between $1,200 and $1,800. You will be required to pay the entire fee yourself since insurances will not cover a cosmetic surgery. Depending on your surgeon and area financing might be available which let you pay for the procedure in a few easy payments.

Risks Associated with a Mini Facelift

Even though a mini facelift has fewer risks than a full facelift the risk is still there. Be aware that you may get an infection at the incision sight or experience severe pain and bruising. Your plastic surgeon will tell you what levels of pain are acceptable and which levels of pain require immediate attention. Never hesitate to call your surgeon after your procedure if you are afraid that something has gone wrong.
