Refresh your youthful glow with natural-looking, long-lasting results
A mini facelift, also known as an LA facelift, is a popular cosmetic procedure designed to restore a refreshed and youthful appearance. Performed by our plastic and cosmetic surgeon Mr Muhammad Javaid, this less invasive alternative to a traditional facelift is ideal for those wanting to address the early signs of ageing – particularly in the lower portion of the face, including the jawline and jowls.
The lower face lift in Derby offers noticeable results, little downtime, and minimal scarring. The procedure can be performed under local anaesthetic, or patients can opt for conscious sedation or general anaesthetic, depending on their preference.
At Implant Perfection, our mini facelift surgery in Derby focuses on tightening the skin and underlying muscles of the lower face, specifically addressing sagging jowls and enhancing the jawline.
During the procedure, anaesthetic or sedation is administered before the incisions are made around the ears. The underlying facial muscles are then lifted and tightened, excess skin is removed, and the skin is repositioned for a smoother, more lifted appearance. After surgery, you’ll be monitored and discharged the same day, with a follow-up appointment and comprehensive aftercare instructions for optimal healing.
All our treatments are individually recommended and tailored to suit your lifestyle and budget.
You can expect the results to last around 5-10 years, depending on individual factors like skin quality and lifestyle choices.
The procedure can be performed under local anaesthesia, twilight sedation, or general anaesthesia, based on your preference, to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible throughout.
Due to smaller incisions, scarring from the lower face lift in Derby is kept to a minimum. Any scarring that does occur will be well concealed in the natural folds of the skin.
While the risks are minimal, there are some to be aware of, as with any medical procedure. Possible but rare complications include infection, scarring, and asymmetry. All of this and more will be discussed during your consultation.
The procedure at our Derby facelift clinic takes approximately 1.5 - 3 hours. You will be given a more accurate time estimate at your consultation.
The ideal candidates for our LA facelift in Derby are usually in their 40s to 50s and experiencing the early signs of ageing, such as sagging jowls or loose skin.
A consultation with Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon Mr Muhammad Javaid will evaluate your skin elasticity and facial structure. He will discuss your medical history, address any concerns, and help you decide if the procedure aligns with your desired outcomes.
