Facial aging typically shows up in multiple areas at about the same time. A mini facelift, however, doesn’t address concerns around the eyes and forehead. If you’re frustrated by forehead wrinkles, a droopy brow, or saggy eyelids, combining a mini facelift with procedures such as a brow lift or eyelid surgery refreshes your overall appearance.
We operate our own private surgery center—Apex Surgical Facility—at our Golden, CO, location. It is accredited by the AAAHC (Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Centers), which ensures our surgical equipment and staff meet rigorous standards to guarantee patient safety and superior outcomes.
We pride ourselves on providing the best possible patient experience, and that includes the benefits of having your mini facelift procedure performed in our private surgical center.
Those benefits include:
• Our talented, hand-picked staff supporting our surgeons
• Board-certified anesthesiologists who work with us consistently
• Surgeons who are always accessible
• Unsurpassed patient safety
‘Great Experience With Amazing Results’
“I am so happy I chose Dr. Wolfe to perform my surgery. Rather than tell me what I needed he asked me what was bothering me about my appearance. From there, Dr. Wolfe explained the surgical process to improve the areas of concern. He gave me a thorough explanation of what to expect during the healing process so there were no surprises. The follow-up with Dr. Wolfe and his staff was also a great experience.”

Don’t Go Anywhere Else!
“Dr. Vath is the absolute BEST. He is meticulous and honest to a fault. It took several years for me to decide to move forward with plastic surgery. I had very minimal swelling/bruising and the results were honestly better than he had advised me they would be. He seems to love what he does and does it with amazing precision.”

How much does a mini facelift cost in Denver?
The cost of a mini facelift varies from patient to patient, depending on the extent of the procedure and whether it is combined with other surgical or nonsurgical treatments. One of the benefits of a mini facelift is that it is typically less costly than a traditional facelift. We provide you with a detailed price quote that you can review before making your decision.
What do scars look like after a mini facelift?
One advantage of having our surgeons perform a mini facelift is that the incisions are much less conspicuous than those used for traditional facelift procedures. The techniques used by our surgeons camouflage the incisions in natural creases, and patients can wear their hair cut short or pulled back.
How long is mini facelift recovery?
Because a mini facelift is less invasive than traditional facelift surgeries, the recovery is usually shorter. Depending on the level of privacy you want to maintain about the procedure, you can return to work about a week after the procedure. You will still have some residual swelling. If you’re planning to attend a significant social event, such as a wedding, you should plan to have your surgery at least 6 weeks before the date.

Your face communicates how you feel, whether you’re upset or content, tired or refreshed. If you feel like your appearance is giving people the mistaken impression that you’re not as energetic or as happy as you feel because of wrinkles and sagging skin, a mini facelift is a solution.
A mini facelift, also called a short-scar facelift, performed by one of our board-certified or board-eligible plastic surgeons:

• Tightens sagging jowls
• Creates a more well-defined jawline
• Smooths wrinkled neck skin
• Elevates the cheeks
Most importantly, our surgeons accomplish these goals using techniques that are less invasive than traditional facelifts and produce results that look remarkably natural. Because the incisions they make for a mini facelift don’t extend into the hair-bearing scalp behind the ear, you can wear your hair short or pulled back without people seeing any scars.
