Today, with the development of aesthetic surgery technology, people’s desire to achieve a younger and fresher appearance has also increased. Facelift surgery stands out as an effective method that meets this request. In this article, there are details of facelift surgery, its effects and answers to curious questions.
Facelift surgery aims to achieve a younger and fresher appearance by correcting symptoms such as sagging, wrinkles and laxity caused by aging. During this surgery, excess skin and tissues are removed and the skin is stretched. The incisions are located in the hairline/inside the hair, in front of the ear and behind the ear.
The age at which facelift surgery is preferred depends on the individual’s skin structure and signs of aging. Generally, the age range of 40-60 is considered to be the age range in which facelift surgery is most effective. However, each individual’s aging process is different, so it is important to determine the optimal time in consultation with a specialist surgeon.
Facelift surgery creates a rejuvenation effect by tightening the skin and making the facial features more prominent. Sagging skin and soft tissue are corrected, facial features gain a tighter and younger appearance. As a result of facelift surgery, the facial expression of the person becomes more dynamic and fresh.
During facelift surgery, the focus is on the cheek and neck area. Excess skin and tissues in these areas are removed to tighten the skin and clarify facial features. The details of the surgery are shaped according to the age, skin type and wishes of the individual.
The postoperative recovery process may vary depending on the health status of the individual, the extent of the surgery and the healing reaction of the skin. Swelling, bruising and mild pain may occur in the first few days. Stitches are removed within 1-2 weeks after surgery and swelling decreases. A face-neck mask is worn for 1 month to help heal and reduce swelling quickly. The full recovery process usually takes a few weeks to a few months.
The scars of facelift surgery can usually be evident in the first months. However, over time, the scars begin to fade. Scars are hidden in the hairline and behind the ears.
As with any surgical procedure, facelift surgery also has risks. There may be risks such as infection, bleeding, wound healing problems. In rare cases, complications such as nerve damage, asymmetry or skin numbness may occur. However, under the supervision of an experienced surgeon, the risks are minimized.
Yes, facelift surgery and other aesthetic procedures can be performed together. In particular, it can be combined with procedures such as eyelid surgery, forehead lift, mid-face lift, eyebrow lift, filler injections or toxin injection. However, this decision should be made in line with the needs of the individual and the recommendations of the surgeon.
Facelift results can last for many years. However, slight changes may occur over time as a result of the aging process, changes in skin structure and lifestyle factors. Proper care and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can ensure that results last longer.
The results of facelift surgery may vary depending on the individual’s age, skin type, and signs of aging. Generally, the most effective results are obtained in individuals between the ages of 40-60. However, each individual’s aging process is different, so it is important to determine the optimal time in consultation with a specialist surgeon.
Apart from facelift surgery, there are also non-surgical methods. Skin tightening and rejuvenation effects can also be achieved with methods such as Toxin injections, filler applications, french lift, laser treatments. However, the effect of non-surgical methods is usually more limited and may require continuous renewal.

However, each individual’s needs are different, and a personalized approach is required to achieve optimal results.
