Facelift
What is Face Lift
The effects of aging are manifested primarily in the face area. Over time, the skin loses its elasticity, wrinkles and sagging appear. Wrinkles occur especially on the forehead and around the eyes, a deep line is formed from the tip of the nose to the lip, and the eyelids sag.
Due to the decrease in collagen and elastin fiber production, cell renewal slows down and the skin loses its vitality. The skin loses its moisture, shine and firmness, making the person look tired, unhappy and old. In order to get rid of these effects of aging, people use the possibility of various aesthetic surgeries. One of them is face lift. Facelift surgeries are performed to give the person a younger, healthier, stronger and more beautiful appearance. It can be applied as a full face, mid face or lower face lift according to your needs.

Face Lift Methods:
Neck lift surgery is a type of plastic surgery performed to eliminate the wrinkled, loose and drooping appearance of the skin that occurs in the chin, neck and cheek areas due to aging. Neck lift surgery makes the deformed neck area look younger, healthier, fresher and tighter. The operation takes 3-5 hours on average and is performed under general anesthesia. An incision extending from the front of the ear to the scalp behind the ear or under the chin tightens the subcutaneous tissue, muscle tissue and skin that has lost its elasticity, and removes excess tissue. Although it is usually applied together with face lift operations, it can be said that neck lift operations are a saving solution for people who only complain about the appearance of the neck region.
Before the neck lift surgery, the technique to be used and the area or areas to be applied are determined during the doctor's examination. As with any surgery, the patient should not eat or drink anything for at least 8 hours before the procedure. Blood thinners should be discontinued at least 2 weeks in advance. Smoking and alcohol consumption should be avoided for at least 15 days before and after the procedure. The patient can stand up 4-6 hours after neck lift surgery. Bandages are removed about a week after surgery. Swelling and bruises will decrease in an average of 14 days after the procedure. During this period, the ice treatment recommended by the doctor should not be neglected and painkillers prescribed by the doctor should be taken for a comfortable post-operative period.
