What is Face Lift? In Which Situations Is It Applied?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the face and neck and provide a more youthful appearance. It involves removing excess facial skin, tightening the underlying tissues and sometimes repositioning fat deposits. The goal is to remove sagging and wrinkles caused by aging, sun exposure and other environmental factors.

A facelift can be effective in treating various signs of aging, including

  • Sagging skin
  • Deep wrinkles
  • Loss of muscle tone:
  • Displacement of fat
  • Double chin and double chin

It is important to note that a facelift primarily addresses the lower two-thirds of the face and neck. It does not target the forehead or eye area. Procedures such as a brow lift, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or non-surgical treatments such as Botox and dermal fillers can be combined with a facelift for a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

How is a Facelift Performed in Turkey?

Facial plastic surgeons at Esteworld begin with an incision in the area of the temple. The skin is gently lifted as the surgeon repositions and tightens the underlying muscle and connective tissue. In some instances, fat may be removed, as well as excess skin.

For male patients, the incision is applied to accommodate the natural beard line. In most cases, the incisions are made where they will fall in a natural crease of the skin to camouflage any marking or scar. After trimming the excess skin, the plastic surgeon will close the incision with fine sutures or metal clips. Depending on the extent of the facial techniques employed by the surgeon, a facelift can take between two to four hours.

Following the facelift surgery, the surgeon will apply a dressing to protect the entire area where the incisions were placed.

Types of Facelifts in Turkey

Mini (short scar) facelift

A mini facelift, also known as a short scar facelift, is a less invasive procedure compared to traditional facelifts. It targets specific areas of the face, typically the lower face and jawline, and addresses mild to moderate signs of aging.

The surgeon makes smaller incisions, usually limited to the area around the ears, resulting in shorter scars. Through these incisions, excess skin is removed and underlying tissues are tightened to improve facial contours.

A mini facelift is suitable for individuals with early signs of aging who do not require extensive correction. It is a popular choice for those seeking a faster recovery with less downtime.

22 min

Lower Facelift

A lower facelift focuses on the lower part of the face, including the jowl, jawline and neck. It is designed to remove moderate to severe sagging and wrinkles in these areas, providing a more defined and youthful appearance.

The surgeon makes incisions around the ear and possibly along the hairline. Through these incisions, excess skin is removed and the underlying tissues are tightened. This procedure may also include liposuction to remove excess fat deposits in the neck.

Individuals with significant sagging in the lower face and neck area are usually suitable candidates for a lower facelift.

Mid facelift

Mid facelift: A mid facelift or mid cheek lift targets the middle part of the face, removing sagging in the cheeks and around the eyes. It is effective for rejuvenating the mid-face and increasing cheekbone definition.

Incisions are typically made around the temples and sometimes additional incisions can be made inside the mouth. Through these incisions, the surgeon lifts and repositions the underlying tissues, adding volume to the midface.

Individuals who experience sagging in the midface, flattening of the cheeks, or hollowing around the eyes may benefit from a mid-facelift. It is generally preferred by those seeking improvement in the mid-face area without a full facelift.

Facelift Techniques in Turkey

Ponytail Facelift

A Ponytail Facelift, also known as a High SMAS facelift, is a surgical technique that involves lifting and tightening the underlying SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer of the face. This technique is named for the incision pattern, which resembles the placement of a ponytail.

The surgeon typically makes incisions around the ear that extend down to the hairline, allowing deeper tissues to be lifted and repositioned. This approach aims to address the deeper layers of the face, providing a more natural and long-lasting result.

Individuals with moderate to severe signs of aging and sagging in the mid-face and neck may consider a Ponytail Facelift for comprehensive rejuvenation.

Non-surgical Face Lift

A non-surgical facelift involves the use of non-invasive or minimally invasive procedures to achieve facial rejuvenation without surgery. These techniques often include injectables such as dermal fillers and neurotoxins (such as Botox) to lift and enhance facial features.

Various non-surgical techniques can be combined depending on individual needs. Dermal fillers can restore lost volume, while Botox can relax muscles and reduce wrinkles.

A non-surgical facelift is suitable for individuals with milder signs of aging who are looking for a less invasive option and want minimal downtime.

8-Point Facelift

The 8-Point Facelift, also known as a liquid facelift, is a non-surgical procedure that involves strategically injecting dermal fillers into eight key points on the face for lifting and rejuvenation.

Using a filler such as hyaluronic acid, the practitioner targets specific areas to restore volume, lift sagging skin and enhance facial contours.

People with mild to moderate signs of aging and who want a subtle but effective improvement in multiple facial areas may consider the 8-Point Facelift.

25 min

Endoscopic Facelift 

An Endoscopic Facelift is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses an endoscope (a thin, lighted tube with a camera) to visualize and access facial structures through smaller incisions.

The surgeon inserts the endoscope to guide the procedure, allowing for precise adjustment, tightening and repositioning of tissues. This technique is often preferred due to less scarring and faster recovery compared to traditional facelifts.

Individuals with early to moderate signs of aging who prefer a less invasive approach and shorter recovery time may be suitable candidates for an Endoscopic Facelift.

 

Cinderella Facelift

The Cinderella Facelift is a non-surgical procedure that involves the use of a combination of injectables, including dermal fillers and threads, to lift and rejuvenate the face.

Dermal fillers add volume and threads (PDO or Polydioxanone threads) are strategically placed to lift and tighten sagging skin.

It is suitable for those looking for a non-surgical option with minimal downtime and those with mild to moderate facial sagging.

15 min

Thread Face Lift 

The Thread Facelift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dissolvable threads (usually made from PDO) to lift and tighten sagging skin on the face and neck.

The threads are inserted under the skin through small incisions and lift the skin by stimulating collagen production. The threads dissolve over time.

Individuals with mild to moderate sagging who prefer a non-surgical option and are willing to accept a temporary result may consider a Thread Facelift

What is a Facelift?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to rejuvenate the face and neck by removing excess skin, tightening underlying tissues, and addressing signs of aging such as sagging and wrinkles.

The duration of a facelift procedure varies depending on the type and extent of the surgery. On average, it can take anywhere from 2 to 5 hours.

While a facelift can provide long-lasting results, it does not stop the natural aging process. The effects are not permanent, and the face will continue to age over time.

Facelift treatments in Turkey can be safe and of high quality, especially when performed in accredited medical facilities by experienced and qualified plastic surgeons. It’s crucial to research and choose reputable clinics and surgeons for optimal safety.

The length of stay in Turkey for a facelift treatment varies but is typically around 1 to 2 weeks. This allows for recovery and any necessary follow-up appointments.

Patients can generally return to light activities within a week after a facelift. However, more strenuous activities and exercise should be avoided for several weeks to ensure proper healing.

Facelift surgeries are commonly performed under general anesthesia, ensuring that the patient is completely unconscious and unaware during the procedure. In some cases, local anesthesia with sedation may be used. The choice depends on the surgeon’s preference and the extent of the surgery.

Typically incisions made during facelift surgery are placed around the front of the ear and behind the ear and scalp hairline.
