The mid face lift is a surgical procedure designed to restore volume and firm the support structure of the facial skin in the middle of the face. This is a common procedure for patients seeking more dramatic facial rejuvenation than can be achieved with nonsurgical methods alone, including dermal fillers or liposuction.
Dr. Verma performs a comprehensive consultation for all of his patients and may recommend a mid face lift in conjunction with other procedures as part of a custom facial rejuvenation plan. In this way, he is able to tailor a treatment to meet each patient’s unique needs.
To begin your mid face lift procedure, the surgeon will administer general anesthesia. Through small incisions, which are hidden within the hairline and top of the head, the surgeon will access the facial muscles and fat at a deeper level to tighten them. In addition, excess fat and skin will be removed, which can result in smoother and firmer facial contours. The incisions will be closed and sutured.
After your procedure, you will need to allow several weeks for tissues to heal and for bruising and swelling to resolve. During this time, you will need to avoid any strenuous physical activity and exercise. As soon as bruising and swelling have resolved, you will be able to return to work and other normal activities.
