Face Lift - Face Lifting Surgery

A facelift is performed to eliminate sagging skin on the face.

• Effects of travel: Long-distance travel should be avoided for 3-4 weeks after surgery. Air travel may increase swelling.
• Impact on working life: Light work can be resumed after 2 weeks. For physical work, this period can be up to 4 weeks.
• Social life: Due to the bandages and swelling in the face, social life may be limited. Light activities are recommended in the first 2-3 weeks after surgery.
• Recommendations after surgery:
  • The stitches and bandages on the face are removed after 7-10 days.
  • To protect yourself from the sun's rays, you should use sunscreen for at least 3 months.
  • To reduce swelling, a cold compress can be applied, but heavy physical exercise should be avoided.
  • The complete healing process can take up to 6 months.
