The face area is the area that most affects the overall appearance. That’s why many people reach out to achieve aesthetic, youthful and natural facial expression. However, especially with the advancement of age and the effect of external factors, it can become very difficult to achieve an aesthetic and taut facial appearance. At this point, effective results can be obtained if facelift operations performed by plastic surgeons come into play.
Facelift is medically known as rhytidectomy. Facelift operation is an operation performed with aesthetic facial surgery methods. Thanks to this operation, it becomes possible for the individual to obtain a very young, vigorous and aesthetic facial appearance. In addition, procedures such as jowl and neck lift can also be applied in facelift surgeries. Comprehensive facelift surgeries combined with these procedures are generally preferred by patients who are very old and feel the signs of aging very deeply.
Facelift surgery is a surgical intervention applied to achieve a tense facial appearance. In this intervention, an incision is usually made in the area where the hairline begins or behind the ear. Through this incision, excess and sagging skin tissue is removed in order to correct facial sagging. After this skin tissue is removed, the subcutaneous tissues are made tighter by application methods such as retraction, depending on the situation.
Facelift surgery can be suitable for many people. Since the facial area is almost constantly exposed, it comes into contact with external factors such as sun rays and dirt. Due to this contact situation, one of the areas that ages the earliest and signs of aging such as wrinkles are seen in the first place is the face area. Skin care products such as creams with eye contour rejuvenation can be used for wrinkles in the face area, but their effects are limited. Facelift surgery, on the other hand, is suitable for individuals who are elderly and want to get effective results in facial tightening.
As with all kinds of medical interventions, some candidate criteria are sought in facelift surgeries. Meeting these criteria is very important in terms of being able to operate in a way that will get effective results without disturbing the general health status. Facelift candidate criteria can be discussed in several items.
There are a few situations where facelift surgery is not suitable. The first situation in which facelift surgery is not suitable is, of course, if the individual is under the age of 18. Individuals under the age of 18 cannot legally benefit from facelift surgery and these people do not need procedures to reduce the effect of aging. In addition, extreme health problems are among the situations where facelift surgery is not suitable because it prevents surgical intervention.
There are many methods that can be used as a facelift method. There are many surgical and non-surgical methods used for facial tightening in the field of plastic surgery. The application method, the level of effectiveness and the patient profile of each method may be different from each other. However, the most effective methods among facelift methods are those in which procedures such as cheek lift are performed surgically. The most preferred and highly effective facelift methods and their contents can be explained under several headings.
Classical facelift surgery is also known as facelift. This operation is an effective facial rejuvenation method that is often preferred. Classical facelift surgery is a rare surgery that can create miraculous results. With this surgery, effective results can be obtained even in individuals who are at a very advanced age and face deep wrinkles, because procedures that will provide tension in both the face and the jowl and neck area are applied.
Mini facelift surgery is a less used and more minimal method compared to classical facelift. In this method, effective results are obtained that will be useful for individuals who are not very old and have mild sagging problems. In mini facelift surgery, an incision is usually made behind the ear or in the scalp area, and minimal sagging skin removal and skin tightening are applied.
Facelift surgery is advantageous in many ways. Although many people think that facelift surgery is a facial rejuvenation operation with only superficial effects, this is actually not the case. Various methods such as skin tightening and removal of sagging skin, which are used in facelift surgeries, help individuals to completely change their facial features and gain an advantage. In addition to all these, the advantages of facelift surgery can be explained more specifically under a few headings.
One of the basic rules of achieving a young and vigorous appearance in the face area is that the skin on the face is tight, that is, there are no problems such as facial sagging. Facelift surgery is an advantageous method in this regard because the sagging skin tissue can be removed during the surgery and a tightening process is applied to the skin tissue throughout the face. This situation allows the individual to have an advantageous young and vigorous facial appearance.
As the age progresses, there may be a loss of skin elasticity along with the loss of moisture of the skin. Loss of elasticity of the skin may mean sagging and wrinkles in important areas such as the face. In such cases, it is possible to turn to non-surgical aesthetic applications or skin care products, but in elderly individuals and in cases where wrinkle or sagging problems progress too much, it is necessary to turn to effective facelift surgeries in order to obtain advantageous results.
There are some things to consider during the recovery process after facelift surgery. Being sensitive about what needs to be considered means increasing the various effects of facelift surgery such as reducing the effect of aging, that is, it is very important and necessary to get maximum efficiency from the surgery. In addition, the things to be considered face complications after facelift surgery and prevent the general health condition from deteriorating. Things to consider during the recovery process after facelift surgery, important and detailed information can be explained under several headings.
Postoperative care recommendations and what needs to be done during the healing process can be discussed in a few headings.
After facelift surgery, there is usually no need to make an extreme effort to reduce and care for scars, because surgical incisions that may cause scar formation are made in areas that are not very visible, such as behind the ear or in the hairline area. However, in extreme cases, scar care creams can be used to preserve the natural facial expression as a result of the fact that patients are uncomfortable with the scars of facelift surgery.
Whether there will be scars after facelift surgery may vary depending on the situation. However, the main condition that causes scar formation in an operation, including facelift surgery, is incision. In facelift surgery, scar formation is taken into consideration when making an incision, and the incisions in question are made in areas that are not very visible, such as the hairline and ear fold. Therefore, it is likely that there will be scars due to the incisions after facelift surgery, but these scars will not be very disturbing.
How many years the facelift will provide a youthful appearance may vary from person to person. How many years younger the facelift will make the individual look younger; It may vary depending on the general health status of the individual, the preferred method for facelift surgery, the experience of the plastic surgeon and the age of the individual. In classical or full facelift surgeries, it is possible for the individual to look as young as 10-15 years as a result of the surgery performed under the right conditions. Mini facelift surgeries, on the other hand, help to look 6 – 10 years younger on average.
It is quite normal and usual to have a feeling of tension in the skin after facelift surgery. In facelift surgeries, excess sagging skin tissue can be removed and the tissues in the face area are tightened. The purpose of these procedures is to provide an already tense facial appearance. In addition, there may be a feeling of extra tension with the effect of edema, that is, bloating. This uncomfortable feeling of tension disappears as a result of overcoming the healing process with healthy methods such as cold application.
The time to return to social life after facelift surgery varies according to the situation. After facelift surgeries, it is recommended to stay in the hospital for at least one night and keep the patient’s condition under control. After leaving the hospital, the individual should not go out for at least a few days in order to rest the patient and keep the facial area hygienic. If these few days of early recovery are overcome, it may be possible for the individual to return to his social life without forcing himself too much, but for this, the approval of the plastic surgeon must be obtained.
Many people think that facelift applications and surgeries are only applied to female patients. However, this idea is a delusion that is far from scientific foundations and the wishes of modern individuals. Today, men also benefit from facelift applications and classic facelift or mini facelift operations, which are very effective. Facelift applications and surgeries in male patients help to achieve results that will help the individual look more aesthetic and masculine, such as jawline clarification. Therefore, men who care about their appearance can also apply for a facelift operation.
One of the biggest concerns about facelift surgery is that facial expressions do not remain natural. In aesthetic surgical interventions performed under wrong conditions, and especially in facelift surgeries, there may be partial or complete loss of the facial expressions of the individual. However, under the right conditions, a facelift surgery performed by a plastic surgeon specializing in facial aesthetics and with methods suitable for the individual does not cause the loss of facial expressions and helps to preserve the naturalness of the facial expressions. Therefore, if you do not want to lose your facial expressions, that is, your unique facial expressions, with a facelift, you should be extra sensitive about the choice of plastic surgeon and surgical method.
