What Is a Facelift?

A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure to make the face look younger. This procedure includes tightening the sagging skin around the jawline, under the chin, and in the neck. A facelift often goes hand in hand with a neck lift to reduce loose skin around the face and neck.

Skin folds on the jawline and cheeks, also known as jowls, and the creases around the mouth are smoothed out during the surgery. Your face will appear more refined and youthful after excess skin and fats are removed.

A facelift includes incisions from the front of the ear into the hairline to pull back the skin on each side of the face.

Types of Facelift Surgery in Turkey

Facelift procedures are comprehensive operations that address the effects of aging on the face while treating several areas. They can include a fat transfer to contour the face while removing excess fat.

There are several types of facelifts that might be suitable for your specific condition:

Mini Facelift

Mini facelift operations target the neck area and the lower face. They are considered less invasive and quicker than other types of facelift operations. A mini facelift is usually preferred for relatively young people experiencing early effects of loose facial skin.

Mid Facelift

A mid facelift addresses the midsection of the face, which is not covered by traditional facelifts, but the incisions into the muscles are deeper than in traditional facelifts. During this operation, the muscles around the cheeks and nose are lifted, resulting in a higher, more natural appearance in the midsection of the face.

Full Facelift

Full facelift surgery is usually preferred for those who suffer from moderate to severe signs of facial aging. The expert makes incisions around the hairline, ears, and below the chin to separate the skin from the underlying tissues. Afterward, the excess fat in the jowl area and the neck is removed.
