Unlike a standard facelift, which primarily addresses the lower face and neck, the mid-face lift is beneficial for those who show early signs of aging in the cheek area and below the eyes.

Incisions will be made in the lower eyelid or temple area so that the tissue of the face can be repositioned. This procedure can be performed alone or as part of a conventional facelift, eyelid surgery or brow lift.

The healing process is similar to that of a conventional facelift, and you should avoid strenuous activity for four to six weeks.
