Experience natural beauty with our facelift procedures
We understand the importance of rejuvenating your face while maintaining a natural appearance. At Plastic Surgery Turkey Group, our team of specialists is dedicated to helping you achieve natural beauty through our facelift procedures.
Despite the availability of numerous rejuvenation techniques, the most effective results can often be achieved through a traditional facelift, a proven rejuvenation procedure. While it involves surgical intervention, it offers a fast recovery time and minimal contraindications. The procedure typically involves the following steps:
- The surgeon makes incisions along the hairline around the ears.
- A small incision is also made under the chin.
- The skin is carefully separated from the underlying muscles.
- The muscle groups are then stitched together at the front of the neck to create a smooth contour and well-defined neckline.
- Excess fat may be removed as necessary.
- Any excess skin is trimmed and removed.
This comprehensive procedure yields impressive results for patients. Most individuals can return to work within 10 days, and stitches are typically removed after one week. In addition to the facelift, complementary procedures such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), fat transplantation, and rhinoplasty are often performed to further enhance the overall outcome and achieve the patient's desired goals.
There are several innovative methods based on existing technologies that are designed to achieve specific results. Our skilled surgeon will help determine which procedure will provide the greatest benefits based on individual requirements and the condition of the patient's skin:
- SMAS (Superficial Muscular-Aponeurotic Technique): This method builds upon traditional facelift techniques by focusing on the superficial muscular-aponeurotic system, a thin underlying layer of connective tissue. It effectively addresses deep creases around the nose and mouth, known as nasolabial folds.
- Subperistal Lift: This endoscopic procedure can lead to increased swelling and bruising but offers unique benefits.
- Deep Plane Facelift: A more invasive approach that reshapes the entire face, including the neck, eyebrows, and upper and lower eyelids. It provides comprehensive results through a deep facelift technique.
- Midface Lift: This procedure targets the middle part of the face, specifically addressing sagging skin, fat deposits, and tissues in the cheeks.
- Threadlifting: Considered the least invasive option, this technique utilizes patented self-locking polypropylene threads that have been safely used in surgical procedures for decades. It is a safe method that delivers natural-looking results.
The choice of facelift method depends on the individual requirements of each patient and the condition of their skin at the time of consultation with our specialist.
The presence of wrinkles and creases on the face is a common indication for seeking a facelift consultation. If you are experiencing the following signs of skin aging, it is recommended to schedule a consultation:
- Sagging skin in the cheeks and jaw area.
- Noticeable bags under the eyes.
- Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, such as crow's feet and smile lines.
- Deep creases over the bridge of the nose and on the forehead.
No matter the specific concern you have, our specialist will begin with a comprehensive consultation and examination to assess your individual needs and determine the most suitable course of action.

Preparation for a Facelift
Preparation for a facelift is an important step to ensure a successful procedure and smooth recovery. Here are some guidelines to follow:
- Massage and Masks: Starting a course of massage and using masks can be beneficial for the skin's condition. This is typically recommended to begin seven days before the surgery.
- Last Meal: It is important to have the last meal 8-12 hours before the facelift procedure.
- Bath or Shower: Taking a bath or shower is allowed on the day of the operation, but it is important to avoid using aggressive skin care products.
- No Food or Drink: On the day of the facelift, it is important not to eat or drink anything. This is done to prevent potential swelling and unwanted reactions during the surgery.
- No Decorative Cosmetics: It is strictly forbidden to use any form of decorative cosmetics on the day of the facelift surgery.
- Avoid Creams: On the day of the operation, it is important to refrain from applying any anti-aging, moisturizing, or other creams to the face. This is to ensure a clean and sterile surgical environment.
Your doctor will provide you with specific instructions and guidelines for preparing for a facelift during the consultation.

Performing a Facelift
During a traditional facelift procedure, the facial plastic surgeon utilizes a modern technique to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome while minimizing the appearance of scars. The procedure follows a specific sequence:
- Administration of General Anesthesia
- Incisions: The surgeon carefully makes small incisions that extend from the patient's ear to the back of the hairline. These incisions provide optimal access to the targeted area.
- Correction of Excess Skin: The surgeon addresses the issue of sagging or excess skin by meticulously lifting and repositioning it to create a more youthful appearance.
- Tightening and Fixation: The skin is tightened and secured in the desired position, enhancing the overall contour of the face.
- Removal of Excess Tissue: Any excess tissue, such as fat deposits, is carefully excised to achieve a smoother and more refined look.
- Cosmetic Stitches: The surgeon uses precise cosmetic stitches to close all the incisions made during the procedure.
Modern facelift techniques not only offer effective treatment for improving one's appearance but also strive to achieve minimal scarring. However, it is essential to entrust the procedure to a highly skilled and experienced plastic surgeon who can deliver the desired results.

Frequently asked questions
HOW MANY DAYS DO I NEED TO STAY IN TURKEY?
The optimal time is 8-14 days. On the first day you stay in Turkey and check into the hotel. The next day we will take you to the operation, which will last several hours. After 1-2 days you will be under the supervision of doctors in the clinic, and then you will leave the hospital. Then the doctor may prescribe repeated examinations to monitor the healing process. After a facelift, the patient will have stitches that will be removed for 7-10 days - the doctor will conduct an examination and make a decision beforehand.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE SUCH AN OPERATION?
Before lifting, you need to know that the effect of the surgical procedure will last on average 10 years – this is the longest period that cosmetic procedures can provide. In addition, it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor`s recommendations, which he will give after the examination. Be sure to tell the surgeon if you are undergoing treatment and taking any medications, as this may affect the course of the operation, recovery and the final result.
HOW MANY DAYS DOES IT TAKE TO RECOVER FROM A FACELIFT?
Plastic surgeons perform a facelift using minimally invasive methods. However, rehabilitation is also required after them. Immediately after the operation, the patient remains in the clinic for a day under the supervision of specialists. Then the doctor gives recommendations. For a full recovery after a facelift, it may take from 1 to 6 months – everything depends on the individual characteristics of the body. The swelling will subside in 14 days after the operation. At about the same time, the surgeon will remove the stitches.
WHEN CAN I GET BACK TO WORK?
Since a facelift is a surgery, it is necessary to strictly follow the recommendations of a doctor to quickly recovery. This also applies to the work schedule. You can`t start working immediately after the procedure – you need to wait until the stitches are removed and the swelling subsides. The approximate time when the patient will be able to return to work is 7-10 days after the facelift. Even if you feel well, it is strictly not recommended to start working earlier.
WHAT ARE THE COMPLICATIONS AFTER A FACELIFT?
If a facelift operation is performed by a surgeon with extensive experience, then there are no complications after it. Edema may occur for about 1 month, but they will go away without additional medical intervention. It is not recommended to perform operations with the following contraindications:
- Blood clotting disorders;
- Diseases of the cardiovascular system;
- Infectious and inflammatory diseases;
- Any form of oncology;
- Autoimmune diseases;
- Pregnancy and breast-feeding.
In such conditions, a facelift is accompanied by a high risk. In all other cases, the operation performed by experienced surgeons of our clinic is absolutely safe and will allow you to achieve the desired result.WHERE WILL THE SCARS FROM THE FACELIFT BE?
Experienced plastic surgeons always make the stitches from the facelift invisible. In most cases, the incision is made in the temple area next to the cartilaginous protrusion of the upper part of the auricle. After the procedure, the doctor makes a neat stitch, which he hides in the natural fold of the skin behind the ear. Thanks to this location of the incision and the suture technique, scars after a facelift remain invisible to others even with a detailed examination.
