Advanced surgical facelifts performed under local anaesthesia with light sedation—no general anaesthesia or hospitalisation required. These techniques restore youthful contours while preserving natural facial character, with recovery times tailored to the degree of rejuvenation needed.

Treatment Options
Mini Facelift
Designed for moderate lower face sagging (jowls, nasolabial folds), typically suitable for patients in their mid-40s to mid-50s. Small incisions hidden around the ears allow skin and tissue repositioning with minimal scarring. Recovery: 7–10 days downtime, results lasting 3–5 years.

SMAS Facelift
Comprehensive solution for advanced facial and neck ageing (mid-50s+). This technique lifts both skin and the deeper SMAS muscular layer for dramatic, long-lasting support. Incisions remain discreet within natural contours. Recovery: 10–14 days downtime, results lasting 7–10 years.
