A Mini Facelift, or mini rhytidectomy, is an aesthetic procedure that combats the signs of aging in the lower area of the face and neck. It is a minimally invasive alternative to a full facelift, which targets specific areas such as the jawline, jowls, and neck. This innovative procedure offers a less invasive solution for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin in their lower face and neck region.
Although both the mini and traditional procedure aim to enhance facial appearance by restoring youthfulness, there are some significant differences between the two procedures. A Mini Facelift is best suited for individuals with mild to moderate sagging and wrinkles, as it requires less downtime and scarring than a traditional facelift. Moreover, a Mini Facelift targets specific areas of concern, resulting in a subtle yet noticeable rejuvenation effect.

The key benefits of a Mini Facelift include:
Revived Youth
Ideal candidates for a Mini Facelift are individuals with early signs of aging, such as mild to moderate skin laxity and wrinkles. Good general health and realistic expectations are essential for a successful outcome. However, patients with significant skin laxity may require a traditional facelift for optimal results.

During the consultation process, Dr. Santosa will take the time to understand your aesthetic goals and discuss the Mini Facelift procedure in detail. She will assess your facial anatomy and recommend a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired results. Prior to the procedure, our Atlanta Mini Facelift patients may be advised to avoid certain medications and supplements that can increase the risk of bleeding or complications.

To begin the procedure, a local anesthesia or sedation will be administered to ensure a comfortable process. Then, small incisions will be made around the ears to access the underlying tissues. Through these incisions, the facial muscles are tightened, excess skin is removed, and the skin is repositioned for a smoother, more youthful appearance. Dr. Santosa will handle all aspects of the procedure with care and precision to ensure the best possible outcome for her patients.

Our Atlanta Mini Facelift patients typically notice initial results within a few weeks after the procedure. The improvement continues over the following months, and it is essential to follow the post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Santosa to ensure optimal results. Such instructions may include avoiding strenuous activities, protecting the skin from sun exposure, and developing a skincare routine to maintain the facelift's effects. While recovery involves minimal discomfort and swelling, it is crucial to follow the instructions provided to achieve the desired outcome.
