What is a Mini Facelift?
A mini facelift is a shorter-scar surgical procedure that addresses early-to-moderate jowling and lower face laxity. It uses smaller incisions than a full facelift — typically hidden around the ear — and focuses on lifting the lower face and jawline without addressing the neck or midface.
Surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation and takes 2 to 3 hours. Most patients return to normal activities in 7 to 14 days, making it a popular option for those who want meaningful results with less downtime than a full facelift. Results typically last 5 to 8 years.
A mini facelift is most appropriate for patients in their 40s and 50s with early signs of aging. Patients with significant neck laxity or deep facial ptosis typically achieve better results with a full facelift and neck lift combination.
How much does a Mini Facelift cost in San Diego?

What to ask your provider
- Am I a better candidate for a mini facelift or a full facelift with neck lift?
- What incision technique do you use, and where will my scars be?
- Will you tighten the sheet of tissue under the skin, or is this a skin-only procedure?
- What does the quoted price include — surgeon fee, facility, anesthesia, and follow-up visits?
- How many facelifts do you perform per month?
- Can I see before-and-after photos of patients with similar anatomy and age to mine?
Frequently asked questions
How much does a mini facelift cost in San Diego?
A mini facelift in San Diego typically ranges from $11,400 to $21,717 all-in. San Diego has a mature aesthetic market with experienced practitioners and strong local demand.
What is the difference between a mini facelift and a full facelift?
A mini facelift uses smaller incisions, focuses on the lower face and jawline only, has faster recovery (7-14 days vs. 2-3 weeks), and is suited for patients with early-to-moderate laxity. A full facelift addresses the neck, midface, and lower face and produces more comprehensive rejuvenation for patients with more advanced aging.
How long does a mini facelift last?
Results typically last 5 to 8 years. Aging continues after surgery, but most patients maintain a more youthful appearance than they would have without the procedure for many years.
How long is mini facelift recovery?
Most patients are presentable within 7 to 10 days and return to normal activities within 2 weeks. Residual swelling and numbness can persist for 4 to 6 weeks but are typically not socially limiting after the first week.
