It is a surgery that has become increasingly popular in recent years. It is done when sagging in the face and neck area of middle-aged individuals can no longer be removed by filling, fat transfer and rope suspension methods. It is an excellent facial rejuvenation surgery when a truly suitable patient is selected. It is possible to take individuals back 15-20 years with this surgery. It is usually performed together with neck lift, lower and upper eyelid aesthetics and fat transfer.

In facelift surgery, the SMAS layer under the skin is also stretched and the skin is not loaded. Therefore, the result of facelift surgery can be said to be permanent.

Of course, many methods and devices are used under the title of non-surgical facial rejuvenation. However, none of these are remedies for a patient deserving of a facelift.
