What to Know About the Mid-Face Lift Procedure

The mid-face lift, also known as a cheek lift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is performed in patients who suffer from the effects of aging such as sagging cheeks or tired eyes. The mid-face lift surgery is appealing for those who would like an improved appearance, but are seeking a more natural look as opposed to a pulled look. A mid-face lift adds an extra step to the traditional facelift that caters to the middle of the face, and this type of procedure may also result in longer lasting aesthetic benefits.

What Are the Benefits of a Mid-Face Lift?

The mid-face lift is meant to restore the overall features of the face by tightening and toning the skin. This type of corrective cosmetic surgery reduces under-eye puffiness, strengthens the nasal folds and enhances the upper cheeks. Dramatic results can come from a mid-face lift leaving patients with an overall younger appearance.

When Is It Recommended to Get a Mid-Face Lift?

Many patients that are between the ages of thirty and fourty prefer a mid-face lift because they are not in need of a full face lift, but wish to appear more youthful. Adults whose lower eyelids and cheeks have started to sag may feel that a mid-face lift is necessary to improve self-esteem or enhance their overall appearance. Patients who are dissatisfied with the bottom of their nose or the corners of their mouths may also be interested in a mid-face lift. Higher cheeks can result and the surgery can be done with or without the combined efforts of additional procedures.
