A Mini Facelift in Your 40s
Dr. Lesley specializes in only the face – she is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who is among the best in her field. If you want to address aging issues early and maintain a natural, youthful appearance, a mini facelift may be your best option. A mini facelift can tighten and remove loose skin, as well as elevate the facial muscles and tissue in the lower face. However, the procedure is not as invasive, and often a short scar technique can be used. This can eliminate the long scar behind the ear that is used for facelifts performed on older individuals, creating a more discreet appearance. The recovery time is also shorter than a traditional facelift.
