What is mini lifting?
Mini Lifting is one of the most demanding surgical procedures that requires the experience and skill of the surgeon who performs it and is most commonly used in patients with excessive skin in the middle and lower part of the face. Most commonly, patients of younger or middle age who have skin in the area of the neck are in good shape. It is a minimal scarring technique, a minimal surgical procedure performed in local anesthesia, and achieves the maximum aesthetic effect with minimal risk of complications.
The operation scar will be practically invisible, since it will be in the fold before the ankles or in the hair. And this operation can be combined with others, for example by correcting eyelids, forehead lifting.
Patient preparation
On the eve of the surgery, it is necessary to perform routine diagnostic tests, including laboratory blood tests, in consultation with the physician. It is important for the physician to mention which medicines are used, if they are used continually. It is important that you stop using acetylsalicylic acid-like medicines such as Aspirin, Andol or Acisal before the surgery itself. Such drugs, in turn, affect blood coagulation and increase the risk of hemorrhoid hemorrhage and hemorrhage.
One of the important rules for an optimal result is smoking cessation at least a week before surgery.
