Find Out the Various Types of Mini Facelift Procedure


Individuals who wants to look young and fresh but does not like getting a full facelift should consider a mini facelift procedure for it can give them a revitalized skin with only short scars. There are actually different sorts of techniques applied in doing this kind of facelift procedure. Keep on reading if you want to know each of them. 

MACS Facelift
This facelift method is the one favored by majority of cosmetic surgeons as it effectively leaves a short scar through tightening every facial deep tissue then putting it back once more to its usual place. 

S Lift
15 years ago, the S lift made its debut in the world of cosmetic surgery. During this mini facelift process, the hairline is cut down in front of the ear and will then continue to slightly elevate. The lifts of the skin in this facelift technique are straight up and backwards.

Hollywood Facelift
If you want a facelift that’s done simply, then a Hollywood facelift will be perfect for you. This cosmetic process can be administered under a local anesthesia and is less invasive compared to others.  During the operation, some tissue on the temples are lifted and then stitched up. So the scars that will be left behind are only seen in the temple, hidden under the hairline. 

Thread Lifts
Even though the thread lifts method is well-known, they are not often used due to being painful as barbed threads – or other sort of surgical threads – are put beneath the skin that will compress the tissue and lift them up. Moreover, this mini facelift technique will give the face some fold lines (wrinkles) since the surgery procedure does not take out skin. 

Keep in mind that each type of the mini facelift I just discussed will show amazing outcomes to those individuals that are 40 years old and up, plus those patients in the mid 50’s age range.
