Mission Viejo Mini Facelift
Orange County Surgical Specialists
Lift Your Lower Face
For many people, signs of aging begin in the lower face. As the skin’s production of collagen and elastin naturally slows down, the tissues in the chin and jaw area can become lax and saggy. A Mission Viejo mini facelift is a good option for individuals who want to address early to moderate signs of sagging or loss of definition in the cheeks and jowls. Similar to a facelift, a mini facelift is performed to lift, tighten, and minimize excess tissues to restore a smoother, more defined appearance. However, a mini facelift uses smaller incisions to lift underlying tissues of the lower face from within, making it a good option for people without too much excess skin. Double board-certified surgeon Reza Bolourian, M.D., F.A.C.S., of Orange County Surgical Specialists can help you assess your needs to determine whether a mini facelift is right for you.

What is a Mini Facelift?
With a mini facelift Mission Viejo cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Bolourian, will make small incisions at the hairline and around the ears to access and lift the tissues of the lower face.
This helps smooth the skin and re-contour the chin and jawline for a lifted, youthful appearance. While a full facelift utilizes longer incisions to facilitate the removal of excess skin, a mini facelift is ideal for those with less excess skin who can benefit from targeted lifting and repositioning of the tissues of the lower face and neck.
What are the Benefits of a Mini Facelift?
Reclaim Youthful Contours
A mini facelift is an excellent option for younger patients and those with less pronounced sagging of facial tissues. Because a mini facelift uses smaller incisions, recovery time is slightly shorter than recovery from a facelift, and the scars will be smaller. In addition, lifting and smoothing the tissues of the lower face enhances the appearance of the entire face and upper body, providing more youthful, toned contours. Some patients choose to combine a mini facelift with another procedure, such as a brow lift, blepharoplasty, or skin rejuvenation. We can help you decide if combining complementary procedures can provide the results you are looking for.

Your Mission Viejo Mini Facelift Procedure
Minimal Incisions. Maximum Results.
We will provide you with pre-operative instructions to help you prepare for a safe procedure and recovery. Your Mission Viejo mini facelift will most likely be performed using a combination of local anesthesia and twilight sedation. Our mini facelift takes advantage of small incisions in and around the hairline. A mini facelift still addresses the underlying SMAS layer by releasing and suspending it in a vertical direction.
Additional Reading
With our approach to the mini facelift Mission Viejo patients will have their saggy cheeks, jowls and chin line improved. If you are looking to correct a saggy neck or significant bands under the neck, a lower facelift may be more beneficial to you. When your mini facelift is complete, we will carefully monitor you in a comfortable recovery area until you are ready to safely and comfortably return home. We also offer aftercare from local nursing vendors should you wish for at-home support during early recovery.
