Planning a Facelift? Find Out if a Mini Procedure is Right for You
If you’re planning surgical solutions to smooth away your age, Toronto facelift surgeon Dr. Cory Torgerson can help you realize your goals.
Face lifts are designed to elevate descended cheeks and sagging jawlines. When bone and muscle structure under the skin begins to diminish with age, the central facial tissue shifts downward, and fat pads may relocate. Collagen production decreases, skin hydration depletes, and wrinkles set in. All of these changes come with the march of time, but what if you were to intervene earlier? Have you heard of the mini facelift?
Younger patients in their 30s and 40s sometimes show wear and tear on the neck and jowl area first. A mini version of the more extensive full face lift allows for a subtle but lasting improvement long before deep wrinkles set in. How can you tell which version of this anti-aging favourite meets your needs? Here we’ll describe both and why you might want to meet with a facelift expert today.
Facelift: Dr. Torgerson specializes in several types
Are you in your 30s or 40s, in good health, but you see jowls creep up and don’t know what to do? Many men and women begin regular injectable treatments and laser skin tightening in midlife to help maintain their youthful vibrancy. Often the skillful placement of Botox and fillers can deliver a face-lift without surgery. However, there comes a time when skin laxity and other signs of time demand more. You may not have imagined a facial surgery at your age. You may not need lifting and tightening all over. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a facelift-lite just for you?
Much to our patients’ delight, there certainly is. The mini face lift procedure offers faster recovery times, shorter scars, and subtle but powerful improvements to the lower face. There are a few other bonuses for choosing the mini, and we think you’ll like them.
Facelift
What’s the purpose
This cosmetic surgery has been around for a long time, but it hasn’t always had a reputation for natural-looking results. In recent years, facial plastic surgery advancements have led to precise techniques that address all of the facial tissue layers and smooth the skin without creating a pulled or windswept look.
Through continuing innovations, the best facelift surgeons have created specialized and targeted techniques to address specific facial areas.
Taking years off your appearance is about your unique needs. What will make you look rested, refreshed, and confident? A face-lift should never be approached as a one-size-fits-all procedure, and now there’s no need to wait until you’re significantly aged before undergoing one.
We’ll tell you the difference between mini and full, but we’re also going to share what most people don’t know about starting young.

Who makes a good candidate for a facelift?
If you’re wondering whether you should wait or go for a mini lift now, consider this bonus: when younger people undergo subtle facial enhancements, it doesn’t readily appear to be the result of surgery. Everyone around them knows they look rejuvenated, but they can’t tell why. Small improvements that last for many years will ensure that you continue to look naturally young and refreshed, not wrinkled one day and smooth the next.
