The mini facelift is a facial rejuvenation procedure recommended for treating mild to moderate sagging of the face, especially in patients who are beginning to notice facial sagging but do not yet have significant sagging of the neck.
This is a short-scarfacelift in Barcelona , designed to remove excess skin and reposition facial tissues with a more precise and less extensive approach than a full neck and face lift.
The key isn't just in tightening the skin, but in targeting deeper structures to achieve a more stable and natural result.
Our patients are looking for a procedure that is medically appropriate, safe, and supported by genuine care, especially for a procedure that requires careful post-operative care.

A mini facelift in Barcelona is typically recommended for patients who:
In my experience, this technique works particularly well for younger patients, around 45 to 50 years old, when sagging is concentrated in the face and the neck does not yet require surgical treatment.
The mini facelift offers clear benefits for patients who are suitable candidates:
When performed appropriately, this procedure can help delay the visible signs of facial aging by 10 to 15 years, provided that expectations are realistic and tailored to each individual case.

Recovery
Recovery usually takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Final results
The final results are visible within 3 to 6 months.

Supervised process
Throughout the entire process, Dr. Dewever oversees the progress and follow-up.
Not all patients benefit equally from this technique. When there is:
It may be better to consider a more comprehensivefacelift.
That is why proper diagnosis is essential. The goal is not to perform a “smaller” surgery, but to choose the right technique to achieve the best possible outcome.
The procedure uses a short incision, typically located around the area in front of the ear, so that the scar is as inconspicuous as possible.
During surgery:
This step is particularly important. In my practice, I don’t just aim to remove excess skin; I also work on the SMAS to improve tissue support and achieve a more natural-looking rejuvenation. This vertical suturing technique helps redefine the facial contour and improve sagging without creating a tight or artificial appearance.

Not all patients require the same treatment. That is why, before recommending a mini facelift in Barcelona at Clínica Belba, we conduct a personalized consultation with a specialist doctor to assess:
This initial consultation is key to determining whether you're a good candidate and whether a mini facelift is truly the best option for you.
One of the biggest concerns patients have is looking like they've had surgery. That's completely normal.
The goal of a mini facelift isn’t to completely transform your face, but to restore a fresher, firmer, and more rested version of yourself. When performed on the right candidate and executed properly, the results should look natural, without excessive tightness and without altering your facial features.
Prices are provided only after a personalized medical evaluation with a specialist.

EXCELLENT Based on 169 reviews Published in Sara CastellDecember 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn't be happier!! I am so grateful to the entire team at the Belba Clinic, and especially to Dr. Felix. I had my blepharoplasty on November 13, and in less than a month the scars were barely noticeable—and today, December 22, they’re almost invisible!! The surgery was quick and painless, and the recovery was pain-free too. It’s been wonderful!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!Published in Carmen Lucas HernándezDecember 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Clínica Belba, especially to Dr. Dewever and his entire team. From the very beginning, they instilled in me a deep sense of trust and professionalism, but above all, they treated me with exceptional kindness. I had my surgery on November 27 of this year, and I couldn’t be more grateful for how they supported me throughout the entire process—always attentive, approachable, and addressing every concern. With each passing day, I am happier with the results. I would definitely recommend the clinic 100%. Thank you for making me feel so at ease and in the best hands.Published in Silvia SGDecember 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t thank Dr. Mike Dewever and his entire team enough for the incredible work they did on my breast implant replacement. After visiting several surgeons in Barcelona, he was the last one I saw and the one who inspired the most confidence in me. He strikes that perfect balance: he’s thorough in his explanations, as a true professional should be, but he always greets you with a smile and asks questions until he fully understands what you’re looking for. He knows how to advise you with honesty and professionalism. I especially want to highlight his compassionate and empathetic approach. At Clínica Belba, Raquel and Desiree are wonderful, incredibly friendly, and make you feel right at home from the very first moment. My biggest hurdle was my fear of general anesthesia, since during my first procedure (at another clinic) I had deep local sedation—this was almost 20 years ago. Dr. Mike knew how to calm me down from the start, but on the day of the surgery at Clínica Tres Torres, the entire team was exceptional, from the orderly to the nurses. My anesthesiologist, Dr. Carmona, deserves a special mention; she is a wonderful person and the best professional I could have had. She was the one who gave me the final reassurance I needed to enter the operating room feeling calm. It hasn’t even been a month since my surgery, and I’m having an exceptional recovery—I’ve had practically no pain, and from the very first day I had quite a bit of mobility in my arms. I’m thrilled with the results!! Thanks to this great team, I’ve fulfilled a dream. If you’re looking for a surgeon in Barcelona who is not only technically among the best but also takes care of you emotionally, Dr. Mike Dewever is the right choice. Highly recommended!Published in Alba MasipDecember 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had otoplasty surgery on September 1 with Dr. Chavarria. I know it’s not one of the most common surgeries, but it has given me confidence and self-esteem. The doctor treated me wonderfully, always explaining everything carefully—the entire process leading up to and following the surgery—and he’s also very approachable. I’m so happy!!Published in Ivy Scrancher-FerranDecember 22, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On December 4, I underwent a breast lift without implants at the Belba Clinic with Dr. Mike Devewer and his team. From the very first contact, the doctor and his team were very professional and attentive. I was very nervous and even scared, but I had a positive, warm experience. The doctor explained in detail what the results would look like and advised me to schedule post-surgical laser treatment to minimize scarring. I left the consultation with a date already set for the procedure. I had my surgery at Tecknon. I felt I was in good hands and well cared for. The result looks natural, and the scars are minimal and improving day by day. My self-confidence has already changed, and I feel very happy. Thank you, doctor, for helping me through this transformation process, which has changed my self-esteem. I will always remember you with great respect and admiration. Thank you to all the girls—they are lovely and treated me wonderfully. I certainly hope this review helps any woman who is in the process of choosing a doctor and clinic. Many thanks to the entire team. Merry ChristmasPublished in MiriamDecember 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had surgery on October 31: a tummy tuck and breast reduction performed by Dr. Chavarría. Everything was explained clearly, and he put me at ease and made me feel very secure. It went great; the results are already amazing, even though the healing process isn’t quite complete yet. The scar is healing beautifully, and everything has been easier than I expected.Published in Raquel Guerra NavasDecember 19, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Dr. Félix Chavarria performed my breast reduction surgery, and my experience has been very positive—the results look natural and proportionate, and my recovery was pain-free. I highly recommend this surgery to other women who feel self-conscious; I assure you that you’ll be in the best hands.Published in Laia Ruiz AmargantDecember 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the very beginning, Dr. Dewever and the Medics Integral Salut clinic inspired a level of trust in me that no one else could, and I wasn’t wrong—I’m thrilled with the process and the understanding and patience of the entire team. I just want to say a big thank you for everything, and I would do it all over again a thousand times over!
