Mid-Face Lift

A mid-face lift is designed to help patients who choose to have facial rejuvenation specifically to address signs of aging in the middle part of the face. This procedure is particularly effective at enhancing the cheekbones and the area surrounding the eyes for a more youthful facial aesthetic. Plastic Surgeons at the Long Island Plastic Surgical Group are some of the most experienced and skilled in the region, and many of our physicians have been trained and educated at the most respected and well-known medical institutions in the country. Doctors at LIPSG can help you rejuvenate your facial skin with a mid-face lift that gives you a younger appearance with long-lasting results.

Please contact LIPSG for more information on mid-face lift surgery at our Long Island, New York practice, or to schedule a consultation for the procedure. During your initial mid-face lift consultation, one of our plastic surgeons will show you a Vectra 3-D image of your face exhibiting the possible outcome after surgery. This new technology can be extremely helpful for patients to visualize what they may potentially look like after having the procedure, before they even step into the operating room.

Mid-Face Lift

Wrinkles, excess skin and fat, undereye bags, and other signs of age that affect the nasolabial area, eyes, cheeks, and corners of the mouth can be addressed with a mid-face lift. Patients who have this procedure are often those with relatively good skin elasticity and individuals who are not looking for results that are better attained with a full face lift procedure.

To schedule a consultation for mid-face lift surgery, please contact one of our plastic surgeons. We will meet with you in an initial consultation to discuss all aspects of the mid-face lift procedure.

Mid-Face Lift Procedure

A traditional mid-face lift procedure involves small incisions made within the hairline around the temples, and sometimes in the lower eyelid and in the mouth. Fat and muscle tissue are adjusted and the skin of the mid-face is pulled up for a smoother appearance. Mid-face lift surgery typically takes about two hours to complete under general anesthesia. The procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis.

Mid-face lift procedures can involve a variety of techniques, including endoscopic surgery which involves smaller incisions and typically a shorter recovery period. One of our LIPSG plastic surgeons will discuss techniques that may be used at your initial consultation.

The mid-face lift can be performed at one of our new operating rooms recently unveiled at LIPSG’s Garden City facility. These new operatories are certified by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities, Inc. (AAAASF), signifying our adherence to the highest standard of care.

Mid-Face Lift Recovery

Some swelling, bruising, and discomfort can be expected in the days following mid-face lift surgery; however, any pain can be alleviated with medication. Mid-face lift patients can usually return to normal daily routines after about a week. Strenuous activity should be avoided for several weeks after surgery, and care should be taken to protect the face from potential harm. Any scarring from the procedure should be well-hidden within the hairline and/or natural creases in the face.

Mid-Face Lift Risks

We take every precaution to maximize your protection and ensure the safe and effective outcome of your mid-face lift surgery. Plastic surgeons at the Long Island Plastic Surgical Group and our entire staff are well-trained and highly experienced, and we will work diligently to make sure your entire treatment process is undertaken with the utmost regard for safety.
