Weekend Mini Facelift Chicago, IL | Dr. Omotara Sulyman-Scott, MD

Understanding the Mini Facelift Procedure

Early signs of facial aging, such as jowls or lax skin in the cheeks, can be effectively addressed with a mini facelift. This procedure sculpts the mid and lower facial areas to achieve a more defined jawline and neck contour.

Mini Facelift: A Precise Facial Rejuvenation Technique

A mini facelift is a shorter, less invasive alternative to traditional facelifts. By targeting specific facial regions, this procedure reduces surgical trauma and offers a faster recovery period, earning it the nickname "the weekend lift".

Procedure Details

The mini facelift typically involves local anesthesia and small "S" shaped incisions near the hairline. These carefully placed incisions allow surgeons to sculpt underlying facial tissues and reposition skin for a more youthful appearance.

Key Benefits of a Mini Facelift

• Shorter surgical procedure
• Easier, faster recovery
• Minimal scarring
• Natural-looking results
• Improved facial definition
• Boosted self-confidence

Ideal Candidates for Mini Facelift

Patients typically in their late 40s or early 50s with moderate signs of aging are excellent candidates. Ideal patients have good skin quality, are in good health, and show minimal to moderate sagging in the cheek and jawline areas.

Candidate Requirements

• Generally good overall health
• Non-smokers
• Moderate facial skin laxity
• No serious medical conditions
• Realistic aesthetic expectations

Recovery and Results

Most patients recover within 7-10 days, with initial swelling and bruising subsiding after 3-5 days. Results can last up to 10 years, providing a more youthful and contoured facial appearance.
