If you are like most people in Englewood, CO, you care about your appearance. You have seen firsthand the way your appearance impacts how other people treat you. You have also seen firsthand the way your appearance affects your self-esteem and your self-confidence. Maybe you have followed a strict cosmetic regimen to keep your face looking its best. Maybe you have used non-surgical procedures such as BOTOX® and dermal fillers to keep your face youthful. However, now you have reached a point where you realize that these non-surgical procedures are not producing the same results they did a few years back. You may be wondering when to consider a mini facelift in Englewood, CO.

Who Benefits from a Mini Facelift?

The majority of people considering a mini facelift have reached middle-age. They are looking to make noticeable changes to their face and to their neck. This procedure is especially beneficial for individuals who have mild to severe loose skin around their jowls and around their neck. To be a good candidate for this procedure, you need to be relatively healthy. You also need to have problems with your face that a mini facelift can address. If you feel that you meet these qualifications, it would be good to consider some of the benefits of the procedure.

Smaller Incisions

A full facelift procedure is quite involved. However, the incisions used for a mini facelift are much smaller than what’s needed for a full facelift. The location of the incisions is such that any scars are obscure. This means that no one will be able to see visible scars. Additionally, there is a reduced risk for major bruising or scarring because this procedure does not require the muscle layer to be dissected. Your muscles are only tightened.

Quicker Recovery Time

When compared to a full facelift procedure, a mini facelift in Englewood, CO does not require the same extensive recovery time. This does not mean that there is not downtime. However, in most cases, the downtime is relatively quick.

A mini facelift is a very individualized and personal procedure. To get the most out of this procedure, you’ll need to be open and honest with our surgeon during your initial consultation with us at Murphy Plastic Surgery in Englewood, CO. Contact us today to schedule an appointment!
