Face and Neck Lift
A facelift is a surgical procedure performed to correct sagging of the face, deep wrinkle lines — particularly the jowls along the sides of the jaw — and the deep nasolabial folds where the mouth and cheek meet. Not only the skin but also the supporting tissues beneath it are reshaped, aiming for a more natural and long-lasting result.
Its Goals

How Is a Neck Lift Performed?
Through a 2-3 cm incision under the chin, the deep neck fat is removed and the neck muscles that create the vertical band appearance are stitched together with corset sutures. Through an additional incision hidden behind the ear within the hairline, the subcutaneous tissue known as the SMAS is tightened and fixed to the neck, and the procedure is completed by removing the excess skin. In some patients it can be combined with liposuction.The aim is not to change the facial expression, but to help the person look fresher and rejuvenated.
