Mini Facelift in Cancun
If you are bothered by the signs of aging in your face and neck but are hesitant to pay exorbitant prices to US surgeons, a mini facelift in Cancun, in one of Mexico’s reputable hospitals might be right for you.
A facelift or rhytidectomy is generally considered a restorative procedure that tightens sagging skin in the face and neck area, resulting in a smoother, younger-looking face. A mini facelift, however, may not get the same results as a regular facelift when it comes to the extent and the duration of effects. A mini facelift is mainly recommended to patients who are:
- In the earlier stages of face and neck skin wrinkling and sagging
- Experiencing small to medium displaced face fat especially in the chin area
- Losing some tone in their cheekbones and brows
Patients in the later stages of aging and those displaying more skin wrinkling and sagging may want to consider a full face lift for more dramatic results. Cosmetic surgeons also perform laser mini facelift surgery in Cancun, where they use laser technology to make the incisions.
Cost of Mini Facelift Surgery in Cancun
In the US, facelift surgery was listed by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) as the sixth most popular cosmetic procedure in 2008. In recent years, the advent of medical tourism in other countries near the US has encouraged Americans to work with foreign cosmetic surgeons to get great results for lesser money.
A mini-facelift surgery in Cancun can cost only 50% or lower than what one would normally pay in the US. The lower prices do not lower the quality of the procedures, as most Mexican plastic surgeons trained in the US with their American counterparts.
