Facial rejuvenation that preserves your natural expression
Facial aging is a natural process that often leads to volume loss, skin laxity, and blurred contours. A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a plastic surgery procedure that restores a fresh, youthful, and rested look without unnatural tension. The goal is not to change your facial expression, but to gently correct signs of aging with a focus on a natural result.
At GÉVÉ Clinic, every facelift is approached individually – according to the facial structure, skin condition, and the client’s expectations.
Who is facelift suitable for?
People noticing sagging skin in the cheeks, jawline, or neck,
Those with blurred contours or sunken cheeks,
Individuals with deep nasolabial folds or wrinkles in the lower third of the face,
Anyone seeking visual rejuvenation of several years,
Clients looking for a longer-lasting solution than non-invasive methods.
The procedure is suitable for women and men, typically from the age of 40, but the skin’s biological condition is more important than age.
The facelift is performed under general anesthesia and takes 2–4 hours. The surgeon:
Makes incisions along the hairline, around and behind the ears – keeping scars discreet,
Tightens the SMAS layer (deep tissue under the skin) that shapes and supports the face,
Removes excess skin and fat,
Sculpts the contours of the cheeks, jaw, and neck,
Ensures smooth transitions between rejuvenated and untreated areas of the face.
The procedure can be combined with submental liposuction, blepharoplasty, or fillers for a more comprehensive result.
Recovery and return to daily life
Swelling, bruising, and a temporary feeling of tightness are normal after the procedure. Healing is individual, but most clients return to regular activities after 10–14 days.
Post-operative recommendations:
Rest and limited activity during the first 10–14 days,
Sleeping with an elevated head,
Avoiding sun exposure, tanning beds, and saunas,
Wearing an elastic bandage as advised by the doctor,
Regular follow-ups at the clinic to monitor healing.
