• Indicated in early stages of skin laxity, mild tissue sagging, and the first signs of wrinkles – most suitable for patients between 40 and 55 years of age.
• Technically less invasive: Smaller incisions (usually around the ears), less extensive dissection, and often performed under local anaesthesia with sedation.
A mini facelift targets mainly the superficial tissues, while a full SMAS lift also repositions deeper structures.
This makes it ideal for mild to moderate aging changes, but not suitable in cases of significant skin excess or pronounced tissue sagging.
However, combinations with other procedures – such as upper/lower eyelid surgery – are possible and often beneficial.
The procedure is carried out by Dr. Riikka Veltheim, a board-certified specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery with extensive experience in facial procedures.
Dr. Veltheim ensures a fresh and firm look without the deeper structural correction required in SMAS lifting.
The goal is always to preserve your unique expression – simply rejuvenated and harmoniously enhanced.

To support optimal healing after surgery, we recommend targeted micronutrients, collagen supplements, and trace elements. These help to regenerate tissue, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the immune system.
