Unfortunately, face is the first place where we feel the first the effects of aging. Face skin that cannot resist gravity and decreased volume of the face are first indicators of the onset of aging.
If you want to refresh and rejuvenate your face and even stop the time, facelift surgery might be suitable. In facelift surgery, the whole face can be rejuvenated and refreshed (face, neck skin and fat depositions below the chin).

As with all other aesthetic operations, facelift surgery must also be decided personally. A facelift operation decided under the pressure or desire of another person will make it very difficult for a healthy feedback. If you are making this decision on your own, if you don’t have any chronic or disease and you are not a smoker, you can have facelift surgery.
Your aesthetic surgeon, who will perform the surgery, will examine you and your medical images (taken before the operation). You should share all your medical history, medication, drug allergies and all other information with your doctor during the examination. Our doctor will evaluate you with all information obtained. All details about the surgery will be shared with you after the examination. Interview and examination prior to the operation and the trust of the patient for their doctor are as important as the facelift procedure itself. That is why it’s beneficial that the doctor and patient ask mutual questions. Your doctor will answer your questions about facelift and address the methods that are going to be used. At this stage, you can get information from your doctor about potential risks and complication.
The night before, rest. And if you plan to go to work, don’t because you have to rest after the surgery. You may need help. Facelift is a simple operation as per our experience, if you need to stay in the hospital due to an adverse event, arrange a family member or a friend to accompany you at the hospital.
Facelift aesthetic starts with local or general anesthesia method determined for you. In facelift aesthetic, surgical incisions are performed along the hair line and behind the ear. Subcutaneous tissue is corrected by being stretched in your face and neck areas where sagging skin and wrinkles form. Stem cell-enriched fat, which is collected from another part of your body, can be transferred to necessary areas. And you have your natural look after facelift.
After the Facelift Operation
When the facelift surgery is completed, there will be a loosely applied bandage on face and head. This bandaging is applied to minimize swelling and bruising. The drain under your bandage is placed to collect any possible excessive bleeding or exudate. It’s crucial that you protect your face and not move your bandage. Once you are home, we advise you to leave the hospital with information about the procedures you need to follow. After the facelift surgery, the recovery of the incisions, stabilization of reshaped lines and recovery of swelling will take a few weeks. Lifelong use of sunscreen lotions will help you to preserve your rejuvenated look by minimizing the damage caused by sunlight. In addition, a healthy lifestyle contributes to the long life of the results.
