The midface lift allows for improved access to the entire lower eyelid and cheek, leading to precise corrections under direct vision as well as the ability to lift the muscle layer and excise excess skin, leading to more significant improvements. The trade-off is a mildly longer downtime compared with other procedures, and the requirement of the recovery period before full results are seen. However, very often the results are worth it.
Individuals with early to moderate signs of ageing, with heavy facial skin, and without much involvement of the neck are suitable candidates. As the procedure has longevity, there is the possibility of avoiding repeat minimally invasive procedures. A full face and neck lift is recommended in those who require simultaneous neck rejuvenation. To decide which procedure is right for you, it is best to consult with our consultant plastic surgeon.
Transfer of your own fat to the face when purified well and injected properly leaves fat cells, stem cells, and growth factors in well-vascularized planes and locations of the face. If these components survive well, the face looks more youthful through a combination of volumnization and skin rejuvenation where fat has been shown to physically reverse skin ageing.
