Facelift
Addresses sagging, tissue laxity and contour loss of the lower face and jawline for a more rested, natural and balanced look.
A personalized face and neck rejuvenation approach aiming for a more rested, balanced and refined look that naturally supports facial features.
Facelift is facial rejuvenation surgery that assesses aging signs, sagging and tissue laxity of the face and jawline through personalized planning. The goal is not to change the face or create artificial tightness, but to achieve a fresher, more rested and balanced look while preserving personal expression.
In this approach, skin is not simply pulled; deeper tissues, muscle structures, fat pads, jawline and neck contour are assessed together. This creates a more lasting, natural and subtle rejuvenation plan.
In Facelift & Neck Lift planning, the face is not treated as a single region. Temple, lateral brow, eye area, midface, jawline, submental area and neck contour are analyzed together to create a natural, balanced rejuvenation approach suited to patient needs.

Suitable for patients aiming for a fresher, livelier and more balanced appearance by reducing tired expression.
Neck folds, submental area, chin–neck line and lower-face sagging are assessed together.
Can be planned for patients seeking refined rejuvenation without mimetic loss or an “operated face” look.
Structural changes in midface, lower face, jawline and neck are assessed together.
Skin elasticity, excess skin, and muscle/fat status are examined on a personalized basis.
Which tissues will be repositioned, how much intervention is needed and procedure scope are determined by individual needs.
The planned operation is performed and recovery is followed in a controlled manner.
In the first days after facelift, swelling, bruising, tightness and sensitivity may occur. This period is spent with rest, head elevation and adherence to instructions.
Swelling and sensitivity gradually decrease. Follow-ups, dressing care and return-to-activity planning are adjusted to recovery status.
Much of the facial edema begins to settle in the first weeks. Full tissue settling may take longer.
The final look becomes clearer gradually. Face and neck lines reach a more natural, balanced, settled appearance over time.
In Facelift & Neck Lift, the goal is a more rested, balanced and natural look without changing facial expression. Results vary by personal tissue structure and recovery.
The most common topics about Facelift & Neck Lift.
Facelift and neck lift may be considered for patients with laxity, sagging or contour loss in the lower face, jawline and neck. The goal is not to change the face, but to achieve a more rested, balanced and natural look. Skin quality, facial structure, neck line and expectations are analyzed together.
With correct planning, the goal is not to change expression, but to help the person look more rested and fresh. Overly tight or artificial looks are avoided. Therefore planning considers supporting tissues, jawline, neck angle and natural mimetic balance—not only excess skin.
Neck lift is considered when there is neck laxity, banding, loss of chin–neck angle or prominence of the submental area. In some patients facelift alone may not be enough; planning face and neck together can target a more balanced result.
Facelift / neck lift may take about 3–5 hours or more. Hospital stay is often 1–2 nights. These durations vary by procedure scope, combined surgery needs and medical suitability.
Incisions are usually planned to be hidden along the hairline, in front of or behind the ear, or in natural folds. Scar appearance varies by skin type, wound healing, surgical plan and adherence to care such as sun protection.
In the first week, swelling, bruising, tightness and mild discomfort may be expected. Many patients feel more social from the second week onward; however, this varies by person and procedure scope.
