Face Lifting

The face area is one of the areas where the old age functions are most visible. Mimics, contractions, and external factors that constantly occur in the face region can cause permanent damage. Moreover, when we look at the effects of aging on cosmetic and make-up products, very different results can be encountered. Facial lifting operations are also frequently preferred in recent years among the ways to remove the aging effects applied in modern medicine.

Along with the aging of the facial skin, the amount of elastic fibers, which provide elasticity to skin, start to decrease. However, the fat texture in the sub layer of the skin also weakens. In this case, deep lines may occur on the face area, and wrinkles may also occur. The skin, which causes facial sagging and known as excess skin is removed after surgical operation after face lifting and so the remaining skin is left on the face in a stretched state for a long period of time. In addition, the resulting surgery scars can also be quickly destroyed.

Since the patient’s complaint these scars are persistent, factors such as scars on the face area are removed without any problems after successful operations. This procedure, which is recommended to be applied towards the end of middle age, can be applied at earlier ages upon request. But at the end of middle age it is healthier to avoid a second operation. The most important aspect of facelift surgery is the completion of the surgery without causing any damage to the nerve that allows the patients to perform facial mimics. So before you enter the operation you should make your decision and get help from a specialist surgeon.
