HERSHE Plastic Surgery's Double Chin Mini Facelift is different

Personalized 1:1 Consultation

Personalized 1:1 Consultation

Because every person's facial structure and concerns are different, personalized consultation is essential. Our medical team with extensive experience in lifting and anti-aging surgerycarefully analyzes the areas of concern, facial structure, and skin condition to establish an appropriate surgical plan.

Based on a systematic diagnosis that considers each person's facial characteristics, HERSHE Plastic Surgery recommends only the procedures necessary to achieve balanced, natural-looking results.

Improve and Maintain Lifting by Securing the SMAS Layer

Improve and Maintain Lifting by Securing the SMAS Layer

The jawline mini facelift performed together with Double Chin Muscle Tightening uses a small incision extending along the earlobe to behind the ear. Dissection is carried down to the SMAS layer to lift and securely fix sagging tissue of the jawline, under-chin area, and neck, supporting a longer-lasting lifting effect.

Improve Skin Firmness by Removing Excess Skin

Improve Skin Firmness by Removing Excess Skin

Removing excess skin can help improve sagging tissue more effectively. The skin and SMAS layer are lifted together and excess skin is removed to pursue a more defined contour and natural-looking change.

Faster Return to Daily Life with a Relatively Small Incision

The incision is kept small within the range necessary for lifting and is designed along areas that are as inconspicuous as possible. Based on the extensive clinical experience of the dedicated lifting team, tissues are carefully corrected with both the recovery process and lifting effect in mind.

  • Q.What concerns can Double Chin Mini Facelift improve?

  • A.Double Chin Mini Facelift can help improve a double chin, sagging jawline, jowls, and lower-face sagging. The platysma muscles beneath the chin are corrected, lax lower-face and jawline tissues are lifted together, and excess skin is removed to pursue a more defined jawline and smoother face-to-neck contour.

  • Q.Are incisions made during Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.A small incision of approximately 1–3 cm is made beneath the chin for muscle tightening, and an incision extending from in front of the ear to behind the ear is made for jawline and lower-face lifting. Incisions are designed with natural creases and contours in mind.

  • Q.Is Double Chin Mini Facelift painful?

  • A.The surgery is performed under sedation anesthesia, so little to no pain is felt during the procedure. After surgery, some patients may experience tightness, soreness, or swelling, which gradually improves over time.

  • Q.When are the sutures removed after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.You will return the day after surgery for a follow-up. Sutures are generally removed in stages on days 7 and 9. Depending on the incision site and recovery status, staples may be used on the neck or neck-to-scalp area to stabilize tissue and support recovery. An additional follow-up is recommended at around one month to assess healing.

  • Q.Do I need to wear a compression band after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.We generally recommend wearing it for about two weeks. Instructions will be provided according to your postoperative condition, and it may support the early recovery process.

  • Q.How long is the recovery period after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.Recovery varies by individual, but most patients can return to daily activities in about 1–2 weeks. Swelling and bruising may be most noticeable between days 3 and 7 after surgery and then gradually subside. Most patients settle into a more natural state after about 2–3 weeks.

  • Q.When can I resume daily activities after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.Light daily activities can usually be resumed relatively quickly, while exercise or strenuous activity is recommended after about 2–3 weeks. The exact timing may vary depending on recovery, so it is important to follow your medical team's guidance.

  • Q.When can I eat after double-chin surgery?

  • A.You can eat immediately after surgery, but for a more comfortable recovery, we recommend porridge or soft foods for the first 1–2 days. After that, you may return to a normal diet if there is no discomfort.

  • Q.Are scars noticeable after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A.The under-chin incision is small, approximately 1–3 cm, and is designed in a relatively inconspicuous position from the front or side. Scars around the ear also gradually fade during recovery, and visibility varies depending on skin condition and melanin levels. They generally improve significantly over 3–6 months, and laser scar treatment may be considered if needed.

  • Q.Are there any side effects after Double Chin Mini Facelift?

  • A. Swelling, bruising, and temporary tightness may commonly occur and usually improve gradually during recovery. Some individuals may experience inflammation or reduced sensation, so it is important to follow postoperative precautions and scheduled visits. The HERSHE medical team carefully manages the recovery process to help reduce the possibility of complications.
