How Does a Facelift
in Turkey Work?

Pre-Procedure

An in-depth consultation with the surgeon to discuss goals, medical history, and potential outcomes. Digital imaging may be used to visualize expected results.
Patients receive pre-operative instructions, including guidelines on eating, drinking, and medication adjustments. Pre-operative tests may be conducted to ensure fitness for surgery.

Procedure

Administered to ensure comfort during the surgery.

Strategic incisions are made, typically along the hairline and around the ears, to minimize visible scarring.

The surgeon lifts and repositions the underlying tissues, removes excess skin, and tightens the remaining skin for a youthful appearance.

Incisions are closed with sutures, and a compression garment is applied to support the new contours during initial healing.

Post-Procedure

Patients usually stay in the clinic for monitoring during the first night post-surgery. Swelling and bruising are common but subside within a few weeks. Pain is managed with prescribed medications.

Detailed instructions are provided for caring for the surgical site, activity restrictions, and follow-up appointments. The compression garment is typically worn for about a week.

Multiple follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the healing process and address any concerns. Full recovery can take several months, with the final results becoming more apparent as swelling diminishes.

Aftercare & Recovery Timeline

What the Patient Shouldn’t Do?

Day 1-7

Avoid strenuous activities, maintain head elevation, and follow prescribed medication regimen.

Day 1-14

Avoid excessive facial movements and strenuous activities. Swelling and bruising peak during this period but begin to subside.

Week 2-4

Stitches are removed, and most patients can return to light activities. Swelling continues to decrease.

Month 1-3

Gradual return to normal activities, with continued reduction in swelling. Final results start to become visible.

FAQs - Facelift in Turkey

The initial recovery period lasts about 2-3 weeks, with most swelling and bruising subsiding. Full recovery and final results can take up to 6-12 months.

Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Any scars that do form are usually well-hidden along the hairline and natural creases of the face and ears.

Light activities can be resumed after 2-3 weeks. More strenuous activities should be avoided for at least 4-6 weeks. Full return to normal routines can take a few months, depending on the extent of the surgery.
