Baby Boomers look years younger with mini-facelifts

Mini-facelifts are made to order for busy Baby Boomers—and even
women and men as young as their 30s—who want a younger-looking
face—without the downtime and cost of a traditional facelift.
Mini-facelifts offer:

O A one-hour procedure under local anesthesia

O Lower cost than a traditional facelift

What results can you expect?

A mini-facelift can help you look younger by reducing early signs

Patient of the month:  Jo

‘I feel younger—and a lot more confident!'

Jo, 54, is thrilled with the results of her mini-facelift. “It went so

quickly!” she says, “It took only about 45 minutes—I was even
chatting with Dr. Parungao during surgery.”

Dr. Parungao made sure I had very realistic expectations of the
surgery,” Jo recalls. “He told me he couldn't promise miracles, but
could smooth out my jowls and give me a younger-looking face.”

“Jo has excellent facial bone structure,” Dr. Parungao explains.
“When the excess skin was lifted and trimmed away, it took years
off her appearance.”

“I could see the results right away!” says Jo. “About a week and a
half later, I went to a family birthday party. My dad, whom I hadn't
seen in a few months, kept looking at me and saying, 'Something
about you looks so young—but I don't know what it is.'"

"A mini-facelift leaves you looking refreshed—not with the 'overoperated'
look that people associated with facelifts years ago,"

What's the difference between a mini-facelift
and a thread lift?

Unlike a mini-facelift, a thread lift is a non-surgical
procedure. A thread lift uses barbed facial
suspension sutures to lift sagging facial skin.
Because a thread lift removes no skin, the
results are less durable and less predictable
than those of a mini-facelift.
