Dr. Law performs full and mini facelift procedures in Dallas, addressing mid-face sagging, nasolabial folds, jowls, and loose neck skin.

A mini facelift uses shorter incisions for earlier-stage laxity. Surgery takes approximately two hours under IV sedation or general anesthesia, with most patients returning to normal activities by week three.
About this treatment
Facelift surgery at Law Plastic Surgery in Dallas is tailored to each patient's degree of facial aging and anatomical goals. Dr. Huay-Zong Law's training encompasses both cosmetic facial surgery and craniofacial reconstruction — a combination that translates into a deep understanding of facial anatomy and natural-looking, lasting results.

This approach suits patients in their late thirties and forties who want to intervene before more significant descent occurs.
