The Mid Facelift at V CLINIC Brno addresses the central facial zone — cheeks and the area beneath the lower eyelid — which is typically the first region to show visible tissue descent. A single incision just below the lower lash line allows vertical repositioning of cheek structures, and lower eyelid surgery can be combined in the same session. The 45-minute outpatient procedure is performed under local anaesthesia or light sedation, with suture removal at day 7. It is best suited to patients with early ageing in the cheek and eye region who do not yet need lower face or neck correction.

About this treatment

The mid facelift specifically targets the middle third of the face — the malar (cheek) fat pads and the junctional area between the lower eyelid and upper cheek. This zone commonly shows the earliest signs of descent in patients aged 35 to 50, manifesting as flattening of the cheek prominence, deepening of the tear trough, and a tired appearance around the eyes that is not caused by excess eyelid skin alone.

At V CLINIC Brno, the procedure uses an incision placed just below the lower lash line, through which the deeper cheek structures are accessed and repositioned upward and outward toward their original anatomical position. The technique is entirely focused on the mid-face plane, making it a genuinely targeted intervention rather than a scaled-down version of a fuller lift. Because lower eyelid surgery accesses similar anatomy through the same approach, the…

The operation takes approximately 45 minutes and is performed under local anaesthesia or local plus analgosedation, with no overnight stay. Active recovery is two weeks, with sutures removed at day 7 and most patients returning to daily activities within one to two weeks. Final results stabilise at two to three weeks as swelling resolves. The mid facelift is clearly differentiated from the lower facelift, mini lift, and full deep plane procedures in that…
