The Mini Facelift is a less invasive facial surgery that targets early signs of aging in the lower face and jawline. Perfect for patients in their late 30s to 50s, this procedure redefines contours, lifts sagging skin, and delivers natural, youthful results with minimal recovery. At Zeal Plastic Surgery Clinic, Dr. Joe Baroud performs mini facelifts with precision and artistic finesse to ensure refreshed yet subtle outcomes tailored to your features.

Early jowling
Mild sagging in the lower cheeks
Blurred jawline definition
Early neck laxity
Folds around the mouth and chin
You may be a good candidate if you:
Are in your late 30s to 50s

Are seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation
Prefer a less invasive option with faster recovery
Have good skin elasticity and overall health
Zeal Approach to Mini Facelifts
At Zeal Plastic Surgery Clinic, Dr. Joe Baroud customizes every mini facelift using precise planning and modern surgical techniques. Incisions are placed discreetly around the ears or hairline to minimize visibility. Unlike many clinics, Zeal may combine mini facelifts with Fat Grafting, Skin Resurfacing (like CO2 laser), or Morpheus8 to enhance skin texture and results.

A mini facelift targets the lower face with smaller incisions and less tissue repositioning, making it ideal for early aging signs. A full facelift addresses more severe sagging in the midface, jawline, and neck.
Scars are minimal and carefully hidden within the natural folds around the ears and hairline. With proper care, they fade significantly over time.
