Band Aid Facelift

Performed in Atlanta, GA by Dr. John L. LeRoy.

Not ready for a full face-lift procedure? Then consider the “Band Aid” mini facelift performed exclusively by Atlanta facelift surgeon Dr. John LeRoy since 1997. The mini facelift utilizes smaller incisions and significantly reduces the recovery period. The “Band Aid” facelift reduces smile lines and gives you a refreshed, younger appearance.

The mini face lift, often called the “weekend facelift,” decreases signs of aging on many areas of the face. The procedure is simpler than a traditional facelift, and significantly reduces the recovery time. A mini facelift can be performed through a small incision under the chin, above the ears, or the nape of the neck, depending on the patient’s desired results. Mini facelift procedures carry fewer risks than traditional facelift procedures because they are less invasive and can be performed in-office with gentle numbing local anesthesia instead of using general anesthesia. For patients looking for a quick and subtle change, mini facelifts have great appeal.

Introduction to the Band Aid Facelift

How permanent are the results of a Band Aid Facelift?

While a Band Aid Facelift can noticeably reduce signs of aging on the face, it does not stop the aging process, so as the patient continues to age, their skin will again lose elasticity and volume. Non-surgical procedures like Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing and Band Aid Skin Tightening can  minimize signs of aging as they appear and help patients maintain the rejuvenated results of their Band Aid Facelift.

How do I know whether a traditional facelift or a Band Aid Facelift is best for me?

While a traditional facelift provides more comprehensive results, a Band Aid Facelift involves less recovery time and less risk of bruising, swelling, and scarring. At your individualized consultation with Dr. John LeRoy, he will discuss your surgical options and help you determine which procedure can provide the best balance between your desired results and the required downtime.

What other procedures can be combined with a Band Aid Facelift?

Combining surgical procedures can be an effective way to minimize the amount of time and cost required to achieve well-rounded results for patients who want to address several concerns at once. Many patients combine a Band Aid Facelift with other facial rejuvenation procedures like Band Aid Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and a Band Aid Brow Lift.
