Who is an ideal candidate?
While there is no upper age limit for a mini facelift, those patients with moderate to severe skin ptosis may get better results from a conventional facelift. Dr. Engineer will assess your candidacy during a private consultation and thorough review of your goals and medical history. The following are signs that a mini facelift might be a good option for you:
- You are unhappy with sagging skin and wrinkles in the lower third of your face
- Your busy schedule demands a shorter recovery period
- You’re interested in subtle results with inconspicuous scarring
- You are a non-smoker
- You are in good mental and physical health
- You are free from any significant medical concerns
- You have realistic expectations for your results
- Your weight is stable
