Mini Facelift in NYC #21070

This case features a 50-year-old female who underwent a rhytidectomy (mini facelift) performed under local anesthesia, with results documented six months post-procedure. The pre-operative image demonstrates mild to moderate skin laxity in the lower face, particularly along the jawline, with reduced contour definition and early signs of soft tissue descent.

At six months post-operatively, the after image shows improvement in lower facial contour, with a reduction in skin laxity and enhanced definition along the jawline. The repositioning of underlying tissues contributes to a more structured and supported appearance, while excess skin removal allows for smoother transitions across the lower face.

This case illustrates the anatomical changes achieved through a mini facelift technique, highlighting improvements in tissue positioning, contour, and structural definition over the documented healing period.
