Orange County Plastic Surgeon Q & A

Ask Doctor Grover - What is a mid-face lift?  Is it the same as a cheek lift?

A mid-face lift, also known as a ‘cheek lift,’ blends the lower lid/cheek junction. It differs from a lower facelift or facelift, which addresses the lower two-thirds of the face. There are several different techniques that plastic surgeons utilize to address the midface, including techniques through the lower eyelid in both the subperiosteal and suborbicularis planes.

Other techniques can approach the midface from the temporal approach in the hair and from the mouth. Others will address the midface during a facelift. Many options exist, and every surgeon will have their preferred techniques.

For more information, contact Orange County Plastic Surgeon Dr. Sanjay Grover.
