The mid face lift procedure lifts facial fat that has begun to sag back onto the cheekbone. This makes the contour of your face look much softer, augments the cheekbone area to make it more full and youthful, and raises the outer corners of the lips, eliminating that sad, tired expression about which so many patients complain. The end result of a mid facelift in Houston from Dr. Kent Davis is a rejuvenated expression and a younger-looking appearance.

How the Mid Face Lift Is Performed

The aging process can look different for everyone, but many of us begin to experience sagging skin around the checks at a certain point. During a mid face lift, the cheeks are lifted, and smile lines are smoothed.

This procedure is only designed to treat the mid face. Two small incisions will be made by the hairline to conceal any scarring that may occur. Through those two incisions, the surgeon will tighten the muscles beneath the skin and reposition any fat if necessary.

This procedure is performed in conjunction with an endoscopic brow lift because Dr. Davis uses the same surgical approach. Still, he just extends the surgery into the cheek area, where he can lift the sagging structures of the cheek.

Benefits of a Mid Face Lift

A mid face lift can help patients look more youthful and rejuvenated without a complete facelift. During your mid face lift, the surgeon will work to improve the delicate area beneath the skin. By tightening the muscles below the skin, the skin above will look more taut and firm. The surgeon will also remove any excess skin and reposition fat beneath the eyes to look less hollow. After your procedure, your face will look refreshed and as though you’ve turned back the clock.

What Makes a Mid Face Lift Unique

Today there are many facial rejuvenation procedures available, both surgical and non-surgical. With new procedures and advancements constantly occurring, it can be challenging to determine which procedure is best for you and what makes each unique. A mid face lift is a new procedure that tackles a specific portion of the face. An endoscopic forehead and midface lift targets the brows, lower eyelids, cheeks, and even some improvement down to the jowls. 

This procedure directly impacts the cheeks and leaves patients with less sagging and more taut skin. Standard facelifts target the lower face, jawline, and neck. An endoscopic brow lift with a mid face lift is an excellent option for the person who wants to improve the appearance around the eyes, brow, and cheek area through a minimally invasive approach. This procedure is frequently combined with an eyelid lift, laser resurfacing, or facelift.

Mid Face Lift Recovery

Recovery for the endoscopic mid face lift is a little longer, potentially three weeks, because the surgery pulls on the corners of the eyes. Postoperative massage of this area will correct this. While in recovery, you may experience some common surgery side effects such as bruising, pain, tenderness, and swelling. Contact Texas Facial Plastic Surgery to schedule your mid face lift consultation.
