Mini Lift


FAQ Page

As our skin becomes less elastic with age, we may develop loose and unsightly skin folds and wrinkles around the chin, jawline and neck. When this happens we look older, worn down, and can feel like a walking exhibit on the effects of gravity.

As featured in Cosmopolitan Magazine, the Mini Facelift or Monarch Lift™, can correct the effects of aging and restore a youthful appearance. Ideal for individuals coming into their 50s, the Monarch Lift™ can improve the neck-chin angle and restore a tight jawline for those noticing more advanced signs of aging.

The patient receives light sedation and local anesthesia so they remain comfortable throughout the 1 to 1-1/2 hour procedure. After a brief rest and instruction on home care, patients go home the same day. Post procedure discomfort is relieved with cold compresses and medication.

Patients are instructed to rest for a few days, and are usually ready to return to work and normal activities within a week. Complete results of the Monarch Lift™ are not apparent for a few weeks, as the skin and underlying tissue heal and tighten.

Monarch Lift™ can be combined with Microliposuction, to safely remove small fatty deposits and improve the contour of the face, jowls and neck. The Monarch Lift™ can help patients avoid the need for the much more surgically intensive full facelift procedure.

Our patients should feel confident that our Doctor has vast experience in minimally invasive rejuvenation techniques such as laser hair removal, laser resurfacing, IPL, laser vein removal, Botox/Restylane/Juvederm, and liposuction. He brings extensive experience in surgical rejuvenation such as chemical peels, face / necklifting and rhinoplasty.

New Advances

Cosmetic surgery can achieve amazing results, but it is important for patients to know that options such as facial implants, eyelid surgery, and facelift are most effective when they enhance a person's natural beauty — rather than overpower it with cookie-cutter features pulled from a magazine. For this reason, our doctor takes the time to learn about each patient's goals, to answer any questions, and to make sure that realistic expectations have been set. As a visual aid, our doctor can use state-of-the-art computer imaging to show you how you'll look after surgery — one more way of helping patients make an informed choice.
