I would like to know how soon after a consultation could the surgery be carried out

Q. I would like to know how soon after a consultation could the surgery be carried out, and also could you give an average/approx cost of the mini face lift and full facelift. Thanks

A. Thank you very much for your enquiry regarding face lift surgery.   Generally, the recovery from a mini facelift procedure is slightly quicker than a full facelift.   However, with modern techniques there is much less bruising and swelling than there has been with previous techniques and I normally advise that most people are back to social activities within 2 weeks.   I tend to use a mini facelift procedure on people generally aged between 45-55 and more full facelift on people older than 55.   This often always varies with the individual and I’ll be delighted to discuss the best technique for you at the consultation.   If you would like to schedule a consultation please ring us on 01844-214362, we’ll be delighted to discuss a convenient time for this.   In the mean time, I think it might be sensible to have a look at our website http://aurora-skin-clinics.com.uk where you’ll find lots of information about the different types of facelift  procedures and the recovery period associated with them.   Many thanks for your enquiry, we do look forward to meeting you in person in the near future.   Best wishes yours sincerely,   Adrian Richards Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon Surgical Director of Aurora Clinics

I am interested in the mini facelift procedure

Q. I am interested in the mini facelift procedure. I have been looking at clinics in Europe as they are so inexpensive but I m a bit worried about the qualifications/expertise of the surgeons and it seems much harder to find information about results and the quality of aftercare so im having second thoughts. I don’t want to base my decision totally on how much surgery costs so may seek a financial resolution to be able to have surgery in the UK by borrowing the money. Can I have some details of facelift surgery and aftercare please.

A. You can visit the web site www.baaps.org.uk.If you wish to arrange a consultation appointment, please email plasticsurgeon@consultant.com . In the subject line please write :Out-patient appointment request Leicester. There is an initial consultation fees of £120.00Best wishesMr S Varma MS FRCSED FRCSED ( Plastic Surgery)Consultant Plastic SurgeonSpire Leicester HospitalNuffield Health HospitalBMI Lincoln Hospital

I am interested in mini facelift procedure with insignificant neck lift

Q. I am interested in mini facelift procedure with insignificant neck lift. But not with general anesteasia, I would prefer local anesteasia with intravenous sedation. Is this possible?

A. Thank you very much for your enquiry it sounds very much if you’d be suitable for a MACS Facelift, this is a facelift principly and tightens the cheek and jaw line areas rather than the neck. It is possible to perform the operation under a local anaesthetic sedation if you so wished and I think it would be worthwhile you having to look at our website http://aurora-clinics.co.uk where you will find more information about this procedure. If you feel you would like to schedule a free consultation to discuss the best way forward for you please do so by ringing 01844-214362 will be happy to arrange a suitable date for consultation.

I am old and my cheeks have under gone a bit sagging

Q. I am old and my cheeks have under gone a bit sagging. I want to know the cost of miniface lift

A. Thank you for your inquiry. If by mini facelift you mean a short scar facelift, you need to bear in mind that this is addressing primary the face and jawline but has very limited bearing on the contour of the neck. If this is suitable for your situation, the cost related to surgery is approximately £5500, and the operation is typically performed under general anesthetic and associated with an overnight stay in hospital.

Could you let me know a rough guide price for mini facelift?

Q. Could you please let me know a rough guide to the price for the mini facelift procedure, and how long do you have to wait between consultation and the actual surgery. I am 46 and need a mini face lift I’ve smoked for many years and it shows in my face i really need your help. Would i have to stop smoking to have the operation?

A. The mini facelift procedure is usually referred to as short scar facelift, because it addresses mainly the face rather than face and neck, and is more suitable for the  younger group of patients.Depending on surgeon and hospital, prices will vary roughly between £5000 and £6000.Smoking reduces oxygen supply to the skin through more than one mechanism. I always advise my patients to stop smoking at least a couple of weeks before a facelift and a month afterwards.In general, smoking leads to accelerated ageing of the skin, and becomes more noticeable after 40-45 years of age. If you are concerned about your appearance, you should think carefully about stopping smoking, not just for good general health risks, but also for your complexion.
