FACELIFT

A facelift is a cosmetic procedure that rejuvenates the appearance of the face and neck, reducing the visible signs of aging. This procedure aims to firm and tighten the skin, remove excess fat, and improve facial contours, resulting in a younger, fresher appearance.

Types of facelift

There are several types of facelifts, and choosing the right technique depends on the patient’s specific needs. The main types include:

  • Traditional facelift: This procedure involves incisions in the hairline and around the ears, which allows the surgeon to tighten the skin and subcutaneous tissue.

  • Mini facelift: A less invasive procedure used to target smaller areas, usually the lower face and neck, with a shorter recovery time

About the procedure?

The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and lasts several hours, depending on the facelift technique. During the operation, the surgeon will remove excess skin and tighten the subcutaneous tissue, ensuring an optimal appearance. The procedure requires a high level of expertise and experience, so it is important to choose a qualified surgeon

It is important to follow your surgeon’s instructions for post-operative care and avoid physical exertion during the recommended recovery period. The results of a facelift are usually long-lasting, with the natural aging process continuing.

A facelift is usually recommended for people who notice:

  • Sagging face and neck skin

  • Deep wrinkles, especially around the nose and mouth

  • Distinct lines between the nose and lips

  • Loss of volume in the cheeks

  • A “double chin” or loose skin on the neck

When are the results visible and how long do they last?

After the procedure, patients can expect:

  • Mild to moderate discomfort, manageable with medication

  • Swelling and bruising that will decrease over time

  • Recovery usually takes 1–2 weeks, including scheduled follow-up visits.
