How long is numbness normal after a mini facelift?

Question:
How long is numbness normal after a mini facelift?

Answer:
The numbness you will experience in your face following a mini face lift can last a few weeks. Even though the procedure is less aggressive in the amount of facial skin that is operated on compared to a full face lift, a considerable amount of skin dissection does take place so the sensory nerves of the areas of the face where you had the mini facelift will take some time to rejuvenate fully.
