Facelift or Mini Facelift: Your Path to Rejuvenation

At Weber Facial Plastic Surgery in Denver, Dr. Stephen Weber understands that every patient’s journey to a refreshed appearance is unique. Choosing between a facelift and a mini facelift depends on your goals and the signs of aging you’re experiencing.

Traditional Facelift:

The traditional facelift offers a comprehensive transformation, addressing significant sagging, deep wrinkles and jowls across the midface, lower face and neck. It delivers natural, long-lasting results that can rejuvenate your look for 10–15 years. It’s ideal for those seeking a dramatic yet natural and elegant change.

Mini Facelift:

The mini facelift is tailored for younger patients, often in their 40s, with early signs of aging like mild sagging or subtle jowls. It’s not simply a less costly or less involved procedure; it uses precise techniques to lift areas like the cheeks and jawline, providing a refreshed, natural appearance with less downtime and results that last 5–10 years.

How Much Does a Facelift Cost?

The cost of a facelift varies based on the extent of the procedure and whether additional treatments are included. Dr. Weber will discuss pricing during your consultation and provide a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals. It's important to openly share your vision during this time to ensure the approach aligns perfectly with your expectations.

What Is a Facelift (Rhytidectomy)?

A facelift or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to reverse signs of aging by lifting and tightening sagging facial tissues.

The procedure targets deep wrinkles, loose skin and diminished facial volume, restoring a smoother, more youthful appearance.

A facelift in Denver can address concerns in the midface, jawline and neck, creating a natural and refreshed look. It is often combined with other procedures, such as a neck lift or eyelid surgery, to achieve balanced and comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

What Can I Expect From a Facelift in Denver With Dr. Weber?

Dr. Weber strives to achieve a natural, youthful and well-rested appearance for his patients undergoing a facelift in Denver. He achieves this by actively listening to his patients and providing them with surgical options that align with their unique needs, desires and goals. By adopting an individualized approach, Dr. Weber can tailor the facelift procedure to suit each patient's requirements perfectly.

The two primary facelift methods employed by Dr. Weber are the mini facelift and the comprehensive facelift, chosen based on the patient's skin laxity and the specific signs of aging they wish to address. Typically, a mini facelift is recommended for early signs of aging, while a comprehensive facelift is more suitable for multiple signs of aging that usually occur later in life.

Facelift Options With Dr. Weber

Dr. Weber is committed to delivering natural, rejuvenated results by customizing each facelift to meet the unique needs of his patients. Whether addressing early signs of aging or significant skin laxity, he offers a range of facelift techniques designed to achieve balanced, youthful outcomes.

Mini Facelift

A mini facelift tightens mild sagging in the lower face with smaller incisions and minimal downtime. It refreshes facial contours while preserving a natural look.

Logo media

Deep Plane Facelift

The deep plane facelift technique repositions deeper facial tissues to restore volume and lift. It provides long-lasting, natural results without a tight appearance.

Logo media

Comprehensive Facelift

A comprehensive facelift corrects significant sagging in the lower face and neck. It delivers dramatic, long-lasting rejuvenation while maintaining natural facial expression.

Logo media

Revision Facelift

A revision facelift improves or corrects unsatisfactory results from a previous facelift. It restores balance and enhances facial harmony.

Logo media

Neck Lift

Although not classified as a facelift, addressing the neck area is often crucial to any anti-aging procedure. If the face is lifted and rejuvenated, but the neck still exhibits banding, sagging or crepe-paper skin changes, the overall effect of the facelift may be diminished. Including a neck lift with a facelift ensures a seamless and stunning outcome, leaving no room for chance.

Preparing for Surgery

Proper preparation is key to ensuring a smooth facelift experience and optimal results. Dr. Weber provides detailed pre-operative instructions to help patients prepare for their facelift in Denver. Some essential steps include:

  • Medical Evaluation: Patients may need to undergo lab testing or a medical assessment to confirm they are fit for surgery.
  • Medication Adjustments: Certain medications and supplements, particularly blood thinners, must be paused or adjusted before surgery to minimize bleeding risks.
  • Avoid Smoking and Alcohol: Smoking can interfere with healing, so patients should quit at least two weeks before and after surgery. Alcohol consumption should also be limited in the days leading up to the procedure.
  • Arrange for Assistance: Since patients cannot drive after surgery, arranging for a trusted friend or family member to provide transportation and support during recovery is essential.
  • Prepare a Recovery Space: Setting up a comfortable resting area with essential supplies such as pillows, cold compresses and prescribed medications can aid in a smoother recovery process.

What Does the Facelift Procedure Involve?

Dr. Weber performs most facelift procedures in his office surgical suite, using local anesthesia combined with mild oral sedation for a comfortable experience. For patients who prefer general anesthesia, the procedure can also be conducted at an accredited ambulatory surgery center under the supervision of a board-certified anesthesiologist. Once the patient is relaxed and comfortable, Dr. Weber follows these key steps:

Incision Placement

A carefully placed incision is made just below the hairline, starting near the sideburn and extending along the natural contours of the ear.

Muscle and Tissue Adjustment

Underlying muscles and tissues are tightened and volume is restored in areas that have experienced fat loss.

Skin Repositioning

The skin is gently redraped over the newly contoured structure, ensuring a smooth, natural appearance.

Incision Closure

The incisions are meticulously closed with fine sutures to promote optimal healing.

Post-Procedure Dressing

A supportive dressing is applied around the face to minimize swelling and aid recovery. In some cases, a small surgical drain may be used to prevent fluid buildup.

The entire procedure typically lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours, depending on the extent of correction needed.

Background media

What Can I Expect During Recovery?

After surgery, patients are monitored until anesthesia wears off. Those under general anesthesia require a ride home, while those with oral sedation can leave shortly after. Temporary side effects such as mild discomfort, swelling and numbness are normal and managed with Dr. Weber’s prescribed aftercare plan.

Most patients return the next day for a dressing change and have sutures removed around day five. Light activities can resume within a week, though full healing may take a few months.

As swelling fades, the rejuvenating effects of a facelift become more noticeable, often making patients look up to ten years younger. The procedure enhances multiple areas of the face, including:

  • Cheeks: Restoring lost volume for a lifted, youthful contour.
  • Mid-Face: Smoothing out sagging and refining facial balance.
  • Jowls: Reducing sagging along the lower face for a more defined appearance.
  • Mouth: Softening lines and improving overall facial harmony.
  • Jawline: Creating a firmer, more sculpted profile.
  • Neck: Addressing lax skin and excess fat for a smoother, youthful look.

During the initial consultation and before and after facelift surgery in Denver, Dr. Weber thoroughly discusses these symptoms with patients. He prescribes pain medications and provides detailed information to ensure patients are as comfortable as possible following the procedure.

Patients return to Dr. Weber's office the day after surgery for a dressing change and examination. Following a 5-day recovery period, patients return for their postoperative suture removal appointment and can generally resume daily activities and exercise.

Although surgical swelling and incisions may not be noticeable to others, patients of Dr. Weber have found that it may take 2-3 months to feel like their face has returned to normal regarding skin texture, muscle and tissue tightness. Most of Dr. Weber's facelift patients feel confident enough to attend work and social activities with minimal makeup as early as 5-7 days after the surgery.

Patient Testimonial

“What led me to Dr Weber was his double board certifications, reviews and impressive commitment to a career that is obviously his passion. What led me to write a review about what I feel is a very private procedure/choice is for anyone looking to inform themselves prior to making a decision, please do not hesitate. Dr Weber is not only skilled but also kind, patient, empathetic and trustworthy. His staff are a reflection of these values and a pleasure to work with. Their communication is impeccable and the facilities are top-notch. I experienced genuine encouragement, care and support from everyone. My results? Incredible. Everything I wanted and hoped for and nothing I didn’t. I am very happy with my deep plane lower face and neck lift. Dr Weber has said ‘True beauty is the epitome of nature's aesthetic. Its architect should remain invisible.’ He’s a man of his word and knows he can deliver. I look natural, healthy, refreshed and rejuvenated. My review serves as a public thank you to Dr Weber and his staff because without this review, you’d never know I had work done.”

Rhinoplasty - Septoplasty, Turbinated, Crooked Nose From Break!

Dr Weber is extremely good at explaining the procedure in layman's terms and gives careful instructions for caring for your nose after the procedure! He makes himself available at any time to answer any questions and has been helpful in the recovery process. I feel I've healed 10x quicker!

I am so pleased to have Dr Weber do my surgery! My husband and I had breathing problems as a result of injuries to our noses and waited until we both had enough time off to get it done! It was well worth the wait! We breathe better than ever, and even though it has only been a week of recovery, I can honestly say I'd recommend Dr Weber to anyone looking for a beautiful nose! I'm so happy, and I not only look better, but my self-confidence has also gone up!

I was so scared to do the procedure for so long because I didn't want to look different. I was scared it would be a botched job, especially since I'm Asian, and my relatives who have done theirs look so bad! He definitely applied his artistic skill to create an ethnically appropriate bridge for me! In other words, my nose job doesn't look like a stick got stuck up my nose! I look the same as I did before prior to the injury to my nose, and I am very, very pleased with the result! Thank you so much, Dr. Weber! You are amazing and extremely talented! Insurance paid for my procedure!

Dr. Weber Knows Noses!

I found Dr. Weber after looking through the reviews here at RealSelf, and after meeting him and his staff, I knew that I did not need to look any further. From the time I walked into his office, I knew that I had made the right choice. Every member of his staff took a personal interest in me. Camille, who is Dr. Weber's right hand, was my "go-to gal" before, during, and after my procedure. Dr. Weber and Camille were always available to me and that made me feel very comfortable. I love the fact that Dr. Weber does just faces, and I must say that he is an artist in his profession.

Dr. Weber took the time to find out what I was wanting to achieve. I was able to provide pictures and discuss what I liked and what I did not like, which is just as important. Dr. Weber's demeanor is very gentle, and I knew throughout the process that I was in great hands! I come away from this not only with a great doctor but also with some great new friends. I can not believe how easy this was, my only regret is that I should have done this years ago! I would highly recommend Dr. Weber and his staff!

When You Expect Excellent Results, Go To The Best

I found Dr. Weber to have everything I was looking for when it came to plastic surgeons. He was professional, caring, and honest, and from others who had surgery performed by him, he is extremely talented. Both he and his staff are 5-star. Last Sept (2013), I had a face/neck lift done by Dr. Weber. After consultations with plastic surgeons in 4 states, including Montana, I had made up my mind that Dr. Weber was definitely the 'one'.

I traveled from Montana, which is a 2-day trip one-way, and I am so thankful that I did. A superior facelift is what I ended up with, and how I knew it was superior is that I had just turned 66, but no one could tell. The facelift was so natural... Everyone wanted to know how I managed to stay so young-looking. I'm not the type just to say 'thank you' and move on...I want to share my story with everyone because when a person finally finds a great surgeon, others deserve to know. I will see Dr. Weber next month to get some BOTOX, Juvéderm, and perhaps a little Voluma. Oh sure, I can have everything done in Montana, but why, when I know Dr. Weber will do the best job? So far, it's unanimous .......He's worth the trip.

Corrected Life-Long Breathing Issues

Dr. Weber and his staff are exactly what I want out of medical professionals. Friendly, courteous, responsive, and caring. Dr. Weber takes the time to get to know you and what you are looking to obtain through surgery. I had trouble breathing through my right nostril my entire life, and finally decided to have it corrected. As it turns out, my left nostril needed some work too. Dr. Weber listened to my concerns and made thoughtful, well-explained recommendations. The surgery went well, and I'm breathing better than I ever thought I could. Food tastes a little better too :).

Voluma - Instant, Natural Youth!

Dr. Weber did a great job. Dr. Weber has a great "eye" for the face, and he took his time with small injections, making sure I ended up with a balanced and natural look. I am a 45-year-old woman who has always had a long/drawn face. As the years have crept on, I have lost serious volume in my face and cheeks, exacerbating the drawn look. Basically, I had no cheek definition prior to Voluma.

Voluma has made an amazing difference in the look of my face by filling out, raising, and rounding my cheekbones, making both my profile and frontal view much more appealing. I had no swelling, and the improvement was instantaneous! I saw Dr. Stephen Weber for the injections. After properly numbing the area, Dr. Weber did many small (painless) injections of the Voluma in various areas, to be sure he was getting the exact look he was going for. Dr. Weber has a very good eye for aesthetics, and he really took his time with the injections. I can't imagine trusting just anyone with my face and fillers, but Dr. Weber made me look far better than I could even imagine. I'm hoping the results last quite a while as I'm so pleased!

A Life-Changing Experience

Dr. Weber was excellent, and outside of having a master touch for otoplasty, was supportive and responsive throughout the entire process. Having now known him several months, I consider Dr. Weber not only my surgeon but also a family friend. Having had otoplasty at the age of 13 to pin back ears that hadn't achieved the desired correction, I was reluctant to have the procedure redone some 10+ years later. However, my results with Dr. Weber were truly revolutionary, and the process couldn't have been easier. I was able to schedule my surgery relatively quickly, which was excellent considering I don't live in the Lone Tree area. From there, the procedure was quick, my recovery relatively painless, and the follow-up and support from Dr. Weber truly top-notch.

What A Great Experience!

Dr. Stephen Weber did a great job! I had a Lipoma just below my collarbone. It had been there for almost 20 years. When I first had it looked at 20 years ago, they told me it was nothing to worry about. Well, there was one thing to worry about. The lipoma keeps growing slowly every year. It got so large it started bothering me. That's when I went out to meet with 3 surgeons to get pricing and to see who I was the most comfortable with. Dr. Weber is a great surgeon and has great bedside manners. I would do it again if needed. Thanks, Dr. Weber! You and the surgery center are amazing!

Voluma And Juvederm - Love My Cheeks

Dr. Weber performed Juvéderm and Voluma injections for me. I've been bothered for too long by flat cheeks and bad smile lines. I had Juvéderm before, which did help my smile lines, but never fixed my sagging cheeks. Dr. Weber recommended adding Voluma to lift my cheeks and Juvéderm to fill my smile lines. Since Voluma is new, I was reassured by the fact that Dr. Weber is a trainer who teaches other physicians how to use Voluma.

The injections were not painful. I did have a small bruise on my right cheek that I could cover up with makeup in a couple days. The good news ... I love my new cheeks! They look natural and have taken off some of my age, and my smile lines are much better also! Overall, I have had a great experience with Dr. Weber and his office staff. They were very helpful and didn't push me into any treatments that I didn't want, and the results look great!”

24-Year-Old Finally Decided To Do A Rhinoplasty

I am very impressed with Dr. Weber and his staff. Every person I have met within his office is very nice, and they act as if you are the only patient they are concerned about at that moment. I used Realself a lot to help inform myself about rhinoplasty, particularly the recovery process and results. Ever since I was about 12 years old, I have disliked my nose. I have the typical larger German nose, and I have a "dorsal bump" that I refer to as my ski slope. One of my best friends is getting married this summer, and since I am a bridesmaid, I really wanted to get rid of the bump before the wedding. I wanted to love looking at the pictures and not grimace every time I saw myself in one. I've chatted with friends and family about getting the surgery, and most said that they didn't see anything wrong with my nose but said I should do what I want to. I graduated last December and have a good job, so with the financials in place, I began to start researching surgeons and reading rhinoplasty blogs.

I decided on a surgeon in Denver, Dr. Weber. After two consultations, we set a date for surgery. I went through mixed emotions of excitement and anxiety, but I was committed to the procedure the entire time. I am still healing, so I cannot say yet that it was worth it, but so far, it has been a great decision for me. I get the splint off in two days and will be able to see the results more clearly.

Here is my journey so far: Day of Surgery: I was very, very nervous. I have never had surgery before, so I was kind of freaking out about electively putting myself through it. I was the most anxious about the anesthesia, which is very common. I did a lot of research about it before committing to the operation. After signing a pile of paperwork at the surgery center, I was taken back into pre-operative care. There was a desk of nurses to my right, a row of beds and curtains in front of me, and a small room to my left. I was taken into the small room where I got undressed and put on the very fashionable surgery robe and crawled onto the bed. A very sweet nurse came in who set up my IV and gave me a nice heated blanket. I was a little freaked out from all of the medical equipment and monitors that were hooked up to me. The anesthesiologist came in next and calmed my nerves. He explained how the anesthesia works and the process they use during surgery. He was also very nice and reassuring. My surgeon came in next and we talked about the procedure and my expectations again. I think that all of the staff could tell I was so scared that I was shaking because they were all so incredibly kind and calming. Next, two more nurses came into my room and gave me something like valium. It calmed my nerves a lot. So much to the point that as they were carting me to the OR, I asked if we could race the beds through the hallways. I don't remember much after this. I didn't see anything after they started pushing me, and the last thing I remember hearing is a nurse telling me to think of a family vacation, and then I was waking up in recovery.

Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty, Chin and Cheek Implants

I find it very difficult to fully express in words my enthusiasm and gratitude in regards to my whole surgical process with Dr. Weber and Weber Facial Plastic Surgery. When I look at myself in the mirror, I now see a better, natural, more rested, rejuvenated version of myself. I have received excellent results that have truly taken years, have opened up my eyes, and I no longer look angry all the time due to my former heavy lids. Recovery has been virtually pain-free, little bruising, and a breeze. My incisions are hardly noticeable at two weeks out and will further improve. I love my new eyes. I also had chin and cheek implants performed at the same time and am equally happy with these results as well. I find the implant recovery process a little bit more difficult due to the swelling, but this will resolve itself with just a little bit of time.

Facelift FAQs

Can a facelift be combined with other procedures?

Yes! Common complementary procedures include brow lift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, chin or cheek implants, rhinoplasty, dermal fillers and other cosmetic injectables.

Combining procedures can address multiple concerns in a single surgery, potentially reducing overall costs and recovery time while maximizing aesthetic results.

How can I maintain my facelift results?

It is helpful to wear sun protection daily, use medical-grade skincare products and maintain a healthy diet and active lifestyle.

When will my stitches be removed?

Stitches are typically removed during the second postoperative appointment, which takes place about five days after surgery.

Can a facelift correct "turkey neck"?

Only when combined with a neck lift can loose, sagging skin in the neck area, commonly referred to as a "turkey neck, " be effectively addressed. During your consultation, Dr. Weber will evaluate your concerns and recommend the best treatment option to achieve a smoother, more defined neckline.

What is the typical age range for facelift patients?

Facelifts are commonly performed on individuals between the ages of 40 and 80, depending on their unique aging concerns and skin condition.

Do I need to quit smoking before a facelift?

Smoking hampers healing, so it’s recommended to quit at least two weeks before and after surgery to reduce complications and improve results. Additionally, smoking post-surgery can decrease the lifespan of your facelift.

What are the risks of a facelift?

As with any surgery, a facelift carries potential risks, including infection, bleeding, scarring, nerve injury and prolonged swelling or numbness. Rare complications may include hematoma, skin irregularitiesor poor wound healing. However, complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced facial plastic surgeon. Dr. Weber will thoroughly discuss these risks and address any concerns before your procedure to ensure you are well-informed and prepared.

Is Dr. Weber board-certified?

Yes, Dr. Weber is a double board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon specializing in facial aesthetic surgery and non-surgical facial rejuvenation. His extensive experience and focus on facial procedures make him a leading expert in the field.

Are there non-surgical options for facial rejuvenation?

Yes! Non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers, Kybella, SculpSure and Ultherapy can help improve facial aging for patients who are not ready for surgery.
