Small incision, a cleaner jawline Mini Facelift Wan Plastic Surgery
EARLY SIGNS OF AGING When the face line starts to soften
Early sagging around the cheeks and jaw can blur the jawline and make the lower face look heavier. A mini facelift uses a relatively limited incision to lift sagging cheeks and the jaw area โ easing the lower face with less burden than a full facelift.
| Type | Incision | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Full facelift | Wider incision | Broad, advanced sagging |
| Mini facelift | Limited incision | Early sagging around cheeks & jaw |
The right approach depends on the extent of sagging, skin elasticity and the change you want.
POINT 01 ยท INCISION DESIGN The incision is chosen to keep scars discreet
We consider sideburn position, skin thickness and hair direction to choose where to approach โ planning to minimize the burden of scarring. The incision range and line can vary with your condition.
| Incision Type | Description |
|---|---|
| In front of the ear | Focused on the cheek and jawline area |
| Temporal (hairline) | Lifts upward from inside the hairline |
POINT 02 ยท SURGICAL PROCESS Focused where sagging began
After confirming where sagging started, correction centers on the needed range โ while checking line continuity and left-right balance.
Surgical Steps
- Step 01: Assess the sagging range and decide the incision site
- Step 02: Incise and dissect to secure the correction area
- Step 03: Reposition and fix the tissue, checking symmetry
