Information about Face Lift
Face Lift
Facelift is a surgical method to give your face a younger look. After the face lift surgery, sagging or wrinkles on the cheeks and chin can be reduced. In face lift surgery, the skin on both sides of the face is pulled and stretched and excess skin is removed. In addition, the tissues under the skin are also processed to give your face a more beautiful appearance.
A facelift not only gives your skin a younger look, but also reduces your wrinkles. Although it does not reduce very fine wrinkles and sunspots on your skin, it visibly rejuvenates your skin.

Face Lift Surgery
Facelift is a treatment method in which excess skin is removed to make the face look younger and more beautiful. In addition, as people age, their skin loses its elasticity. However, facial fat and muscle tissues also change as we age. These changes on our face cause sagging and wrinkles. In order to achieve the best results with this treatment, methods such as neck lift, eyelid aesthetics, forehead lift and chin implant can also be applied.
How is it done?
A traditional facelift surgery is performed with an incision starting from the hairline above and in front of the ear. The incision is extended downwards in front of the ear, comes from under the ear and ends up behind the ear at the hairline behind the ear.
Skin, fat, muscle and connective tissues are lifted as needed to reduce sagging and wrinkled skin issues. If the surgeon performing the procedure deems it necessary, the underlying muscle and connective tissues can be tightened with sutures. The skin is pulled backwards and upwards and the excess skin is removed. Then the wound areas are closed with stitches and staples.
Excess blood may need to be removed after surgery. After the surgery, your face is bandaged. The healing process begins.
