Portland Mini-Facelifts

The Mini-Facelift is best suited for people in their 30s and 50’s who have good skin tone, but are starting to see some laxity in their lower face around the jaw.

The surgery is similar to a traditional facelift, but the difference is that the scar is shorter and there are fewer complications. There is also a little less swelling post-operatively and the recovery period is quick compared to a standard facelift. The patient can usually return to work after five to seven days.

The incisions are made around the ear, but not in the hairline. There is also a small incision underneath the chin. These smaller incisions mean less downtime.
