When it comes to facial rejuvenation, selecting the right procedure depends on which areas of your face need attention. A mid-facelift focuses on the central part of the face, particularly the cheeks and under-eye area, giving a lifted, youthful look. It’s ideal for younger patients with early signs of aging. In contrast, a full facelift addresses the lower face, including the jawline and neck, and offers more dramatic results for older individuals or those with sagging skin.

Key Differences:

• Target Areas: Mid-facelift is focused on cheeks and under-eyes; full facelift addresses lower face and neck.
• Ideal Candidates: Mid-facelift suits those with mild aging signs; full facelift is better for more advanced aging.
• Recovery: Mid-facelift typically requires shorter downtime, while full facelift has a longer recovery but more dramatic outcomes.

Combining Procedures for Best Results

In some cases, combining a mid-facelift with a traditional facelift offers a complete solution for facial rejuvenation, addressing both the central and lower face.
