Facelift and Necklift

It is impossible to come to terms with how severely age sometimes changes our appearance! Deep wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes, drooping eyebrows, pronounced nasolabial folds and a blurred oval of the face… Fortunately, facial rejuvenation is possible with modern aesthetic medicine, which allows us to defeat these unfair signs of age.

So, with a pronounced excess of skin or fat deposits on the face, an extended circular facelift with SMAS technique is recommended. This method of simultaneous tightening of all areas of the face and neck is one of the most effective ways to get rid of deep nasolabial folds, pronounced wrinkles and gravitational ptosis. Such a facelift affects not only the skin, but also dense tissues lying deep under it – the so-called superficial muscular-aponeurotic layer (abbreviated as SMAS), which allows you to achieve the effect of cardinal facial rejuvenation.

Circular face and neck lift with the SMAS technique is a labor-intensive operation that requires the highest professionalism from the surgeon, but it is this facelift that provides a pronounced and most stable result. Often, a circular facelift or a lower 2/3 facelift is performed with an additional chin correction – as a rule, it is indicated for the absence or mild cervicochin angle, as well as for people with a “double chin”. In addition, sometimes patients ask for the correction of the shape of the chin with the help of implants.

It is not always possible to achieve high-quality facial rejuvenation without a neck lift, which, in turn, is often combined with anterior platysmaplasty (that is, suturing the neck muscles) – only in this case the result will be a beautiful clear contour of the neck and chin. A forehead lift allows you to raise your eyebrows, saving the patient from a frown. This operation is not an obligatory part of a circular facelift and can be performed both in combination with it and separately.
If there are indications for a circular face and neck lift, then plastic surgeons do not recommend doing a partial facelift, correcting only the “most problematic area”. With pronounced age-related changes, only a full-fledged circular facelift will provide a convincing rejuvenating effect. And only in this case the result will be harmonious and natural.

The skill of plastic surgeons and the techniques used in the clinic “Istanbul” allow:

Preserve the individual features of the patient’s face
The opportunity in each case to offer an individual complex of rejuvenating surgical techniques is the key to a brilliantly performed operation. The best proof of professionalism, of course, is the results of the work of our plastic surgeons.

Make scars invisible

Most postoperative scars after a facelift are hidden in the hair and are not visible. All other cosmetic seams are not visible to the eye due to the fine work of plastic surgeons.
