The youth photos of the patient, who want to have facelift surgery due to necessity or dissatisfaction, are first looked at. The physician sees how the aging of the face occurs and in which parts of the face there is deformation and makes a plan according to this situation.

Facelift surgery is performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the planning made, the operation takes an average of 3-6 hours. In the face lift operation, the incisions are always applied under the scalp. Thus, since the operation scar will always remain under the hair, there is no problem such as a post-operative incision scar. For a facelift operation that will satisfy the patient, it is necessary to intervene in all tissues and muscles under the skin by shaping not only the skin but also all skin layers in three dimensions. Thanks to these deep touches, the tissues and muscles are brought to the places where they should be, and the effects of aging are eliminated.

Facial bruising and swelling is a normal post-operative condition. Serious pain is rarely seen, and if it is seen, simple painkillers will relieve the patient. Ice and cold compress applied to the face for the first 2 days will seriously reduce swelling. Against bruising, your doctor will recommend creams. Usually one night stay in hospital is required. After 7-10 days, the stitches are removed. The patient can return to work 1 week after the operation.
