As with a traditional facelift, you will be examined to confirm that you are a good candidate for a mini-facelift.

How Long Does It Take to Perform a Mini Facelift?
A mini facelift is typically complete within two hours.
What to Expect After a Mini Facelift

Swelling, bruising, sensitivity and discomfort are likely in the weeks following a mini facelift.
