Over time the impact of sun exposure, the stresses of everyday life and gravity start to appear on our faces. These aging signs are manifested in deep creases, slackness of the jaw line and folds and fat deposits on the neck.
Facelift or Rhytidectomy is a viable option to counteract these problems by removing fat and tightening skin and muscles — leaving your face with a youthful and vibrant appearance.
Facelift surgery in Turkey is a popular choice among many male and female individuals looking to improve the appearance of the face and reduce signs of facial aging.

Facelift Procedure
Facial plastic surgeons at Gold Esthetic Center begin with an incision in the area of the temple. The skin is gently lifted as the surgeon repositions and tightens the underlying muscle and connective tissue. In some instances, fat may be removed, as well as excess skin.
For male patients, the incision is applied to accommodate the natural beard line. In most cases, the incisions are made where they will fall in a natural crease of the skin to camouflage any marking or scar. After trimming the excess skin, the plastic surgeon will close the incision with fine sutures or metal clips. Depending on the extent of the facial techniques employed by the surgeon, a facelift can take between two to four hours.
Following the facelift surgery, the surgeon will apply a dressing to protect the entire area where the incisions were placed.
