Mini vs. Full Facelift – What’s the Difference?

When it comes to achieving a noticeable youthful face – tighter, smoother skin with firm eyelids – no amount of skin cream can come close to the results achieved with a face lift.  A traditional facelift is a surgical solution to sagging cheeks and jowls, heavy bags under the eyes, and drooping eyebrows.  In other words, it’s the surgical solution to a face that constantly looks tired, fatigued, and older before its time.

Fortunately, there are two facelift procedures that can help you target your biggest trouble spots – and you’ll find both treatments at Rocheford Plastic Surgery in Woodbury, MN today.

Discover Two New Facelift Options

Owned and operated by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Heather Rocheford, Rocheford Plastic Surgery (serving the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area) is now home to the traditional facelift procedure, as well as the mini-lift.  Both procedures are designed to address the biggest signs of facial aging, including sagging jowls, loose skin on the neck, and deep folds on the face.

The main difference between the two treatments is critical for determining which option is right for you. Take a look:

• The traditional facelift is designed to address issues associated with sagging neck, cheek, and jowls.  This facelift procedure is best for patients who have significant sagging and want to address these three primary areas.

• The mini facelift is a newer procedure that’s designed to address issues associated with the sagging of the cheeks and jowls.

Both treatments lift the skin and muscle tissues, resulting in significant results that can last anywhere from seven to 10 years.  If you have any questions about which procedure is right for you, Dr. Rocheford can walk you through what to expect from each procedure.
