A face lift is simply a procedure to create a younger and fresher look in the face by removing the sagging skin and tightening it. The procedure also helps smoothing the skin folds on several areas on the face. Due to natural aging, skin loses its elasticity and become saggy. This is mostly observed on the cheeks, jawline and down to the neck. Also from the same reason, the wrinkles on the face and around the eyes increase and become more noticeable. With the face-lift operations, a flap of skin in both sides of the face is pulled to the back and the excess skin is removed. By doing that, the patient gets rid of the sagging sking and wrinkles which leads to a youthful appearance.

Informations
First of all, the operation is performed under the general anaesthesia and requires hospitalization. The incisions for the face lift are mostly placed in front of the ear and the back of the ear. Therefore, the scars after the healing will not be visible and noticeable.
By reaching the SMAS label with those incisions, the sagging is corrected according the needs of the patient. If needed, the excess skin is removed and the skin is carried to its new position and sewn tightly. If necessary, the neck is also intervened and the sagging skin on the neck is also corrected. After that, the excess skin is removed and the skin is fixated to its new position.
Each patient is prepared an individual treatment plan for a face lift procedure depending on the damage on the skin, amount of the excess sagging skin, sun damages or loss of collagens due to aging. This means that each patient needs a different approach.

Special Instruments Used in the Surgery
The Stapler
The most important instrument in laparoscopic gastric surgery is the stapler, which is used as a suturing device to separate the stomach. In addition to the tightness of the stiches at the staple line, bleeding is the most common complication in bariatric surgery. Our partner surgeon uses the stapler only once per patient to minimize this risk
The Suture Enhancer
Our partner surgeon is on the use of the suture enhancement. This consist of a biological material and serve as an additional layer of tissue to ensure that the brackets are better anchored, thereby reducing postoperative complications. There is 100% consensus between specialists in the bariatric field about that by using the suture enhancer there is a significantly minimized risk of bleeding.

Before and after the operation
How should I prepare for my Face Lift Surgery in Turkey?
A while before the surgery, you may need to stop certain medications and nutritional supplements (such as herbal teas, blood thinners). The medicalfly team will provide you with detailed information on this matter. Therefore, please inform us all about your prescription drugs so we can give you all the necessary information. In addition, before the operation, there should be no metal objects in your body, jewellery such as piercings, earrings, necklaces should be removed. Your artificial nails should also be removed before face lift surgery.
How is the Recovery Process After the Face Lift Surgery?
Minimum of one night hospitalization is required after the surgery for comfort and health reasons. Since the intervened area is a sensitive and vast area, painkillers are applied via IV. The drains are removed mostly the next day and the patient is discharged. 5-7 days of relaxation and rest is recommended.It is normal to have swellings and bruises after the operations. The final results can be observed in around 3 months.
What to Expect After a Face Lift?
Patient is hospitalized after the face lift and there will be bandages around the face. The healing and recovery process differs from patient to patient also depending on the scope of the face lift that is performed and the performed procedures during the face lift. One of the main goals of the aesthetic procedures are to leave minimally visible scars after the operation. The surgeon performs the incisions mostly in front of the ears and behind the ears and sometimes in the hairline. Therefore, they are barely visible from the outside when the complete healing is achieved.
Depending on your job, you can go back to your work in 7 to 15 days. There will be some restrictions with the exercises and activities which leads to high blood pressure. Since smoking and alcohol consumption affects the oxygen level of the blood, the healing is also directly related to those. For a fast, comfortable and healthy healing, it is not recommended to smoke or drink alcohol after the surgery for a while.
Other instructions for the post-operative period will be given to you by your performing surgeon after your face-lift in Turkey.
The Results of the Face Lift
The results of the face lift can be considered as “very long lasting”. So, it is easy to say that the results last always. It should be however considered that the you will not always look the same as you did right after the healing is completed. That is due to ongoing aging process of the humans. Your face will look younger than you would if never had the face lift surgery.
A healthy lifestyle, sufficient hydration, healthy diet, use of moisturizing cremes and sunscreen helps the results last longer. What to expect from a face lift surgery will be explained to you in details by the performing surgeon.
Risks
As with every surgery and surgical procedure, face lift operations also involve some risks. First of all, various risks and complications may arise due to general anaesthesia, during the surgical intervention. There may be swelling, thickness and bruising in the area after the surgery, but these are definitely temporary and will disappear after a few days. Bleeding and infection from the operation in the region are very rare complications. You can get detailed information about these risks from your doctor before the surgery.
