HOW FACE LIFT İS DONE?
Although facelift is perceived as a medical treatment due to aesthetic concerns, it also comes across as a medical necessity from time to time. We cannot talk about face lift operations, which are commonly performed for aesthetic concerns, as they are only preferred by women today. Facelift procedures, which are also very popular among men of our age, are mostly performed after a certain age due to sagging of the skin. It is not right to talk about an age restriction for facelift procedures. It is enough to detect the loss. Obesity surgery patients, which have become very popular today, lose serious weight and the sagging skin that develops on the skin disturbs individuals who have a weak and fit appearance. These patients also prefer facelift techniques.
What is Tape face lift ?
Surgery is not necessary for the facelift procedure. One of today's preferred methods is face lift tape. Face lift tapes, which can be easily accessed by everyone, even from internet shopping sites or cosmetic stores, are mostly applied by people who are not satisfied with their current state. However, it should be kept in mind that the applications made with face lift tapes, which are preferred with their affordable cost, are only a temporary solution, and the quality of these materials, which are widely available in the market, is controversial.
Is a non-surgical facelift possible?
When non-surgical face lift is mentioned, only tapes do not come to mind. Botox, filler, laser, cellular therapy and face lift are also options. What needs to be considered is that all these operations must be carried out by experts and in places with hygiene requirements, by experts. It is a fact that should be kept in mind that the procedures performed without these conditions can cause serious problems such as infection and allergy. As reflected many times in society, the problems caused by such unconscious practices cause people to face irreparable results. And another thing to keep in mind is that applications such as Botox, laser, cellular therapy are a temporary procedure. These applications have a duration of 6 months or 1 year. After this time, the activity gradually fades away.
How long is the permanence of face lift surgery?
It is highly probable to achieve a rejuvenation decision between 5 and 10 years on the face of the person with a facelift operation performed with the right system. The permanence of the effects of the surgeries performed by specialists is definitely longer when compared to the face lift tape and other methods. Although this duration of permanence is determined as 10 years under normal conditions, it is useful to underline the importance of the living conditions of the individual as the main determinant of the duration. Factors such as excessive smoking and alcohol consumption, a stressful life style, lack of sleep, staying away from sports and exercise, inadequate and problematic eating and drinking habits, and possibly the most important of all, not taking precautions against sun damage shorten the 10-year permanence period. It should also be noted that this permanence period may be extended for adults who know a comfortable lifestyle, have stopp consuming alcohol and cigarettes, have the necessary sleeping habits, eat well and regularly, regularly perform the exercises that our body needs and protect themselves against sun damage.
How does the process work after facelift surgery?
Until recently, patients had similar concerns that the face would swell and bruise after the surgery, and that the individual would not be able to go out for a long time. Today, however, these worries are no longer necessary. Since the damage to the tissues during the surgery is minimized thanks to the latest technology and endoscopic methods developed in the field of plastic surgery, the recovery period of the patients has visibly accelerated. While the postoperative hospital stay is usually one or two days; As a result of this time, the patient who is discharged can return to his daily life directly. If there is bruising or edema on the face, it is possible to mention that the swelling starts to go down and the edema starts to disappear within 48 to 72 hours. After 7 to 10 days, the patient will be able to return to work. A waiting period of 1.5-2 months is required for the surgery to fully reach the result and for the face to reach its organic state. Another concern after the operation is that the new state of the face will be quite different from the old one. "Will I be recognized by my surroundings? Will I be distinguished from my photographs in documents, such as a driver's license or identity?" Similarly, the worries are totally unfounded. Because the operation does not interfere with the bone structure, which is the basis of facial expression. A younger, more lively view is achieved with only the intervention on the skin.
