Key Takeaways of the Page

The mid facelift is a surgical procedure that lifts sagging cheeks, giving the mid-face region a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance. Over time, the elasticity in the skin diminishes, resulting in sagging. This can be particularly noticeable in the cheek area. The mid facelift, which is also referred to as the cheek lift, elevates sagging facial tissue to improve drooping in the midface and cheek area. The procedure also reduces smiles lines (the nasolabial folds) and puffiness beneath the eyes. This, in turn, adds a youthful fullness and prominence to the cheeks.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Mid Facelift?

The mid facelift is appropriate for healthy men and women who have realistic expectations for improving sagging in the cheeks and midface, smile lines, and undereye puffiness. Less invasive than the traditional facelift, it is an ideal procedure for younger patients who do not have jowling or banding in the neck and are not yet ready for a full facelift.

The Procedure and What to Expect

A cheek lift in Beverly Hills or Newport Beach may take two or more hours to complete and is often performed with local anesthesia or with general anesthesia. This procedure may be performed as an endoscopic procedure using an endoscope (a small tool with a light and a camera) inserted through very small incisions.

The incisions are generally well concealed and are typically located by the hairline. Working through these incisions, Dr. Batniji will lift sagging the tissue of the cheek and midface region.

I am very pleased with the results of my surgery as well as the follow up care from the doctor, assistant, anesthesiologist, and office staff. I would highly recommend Dr. Batniji and staff to anyone who is considering plastic surgery.

The Recovery Process

The mid facelift may result in some amount of discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Swelling and bruising will fade, and the discomfort can be treated with medication. The sutures are often removed after five to seven days, or if dissolvable sutures are used, they will dissolve on their own.

One to two weeks after your mid facelift, you should feel well enough to return to work and most other strenuous activities. You will, however, be advised to postpone more strenuous activities for a longer time.

Mid Facelift Cost

When considering a mid facelift, it is important to look at its potential cost. The price of a mid facelift varies depending on the patient’s needs and goals, the anesthesia that will be used, the techniques being employed, and the overall time needed to perform the surgery.
