Facelift

A facelift repositions loosened skin and support tissue for a rested, natural look — removing tiredness, not your character.

HIGHLIGHTS

What stands out in this treatment

Natural, Lasting Result

By repositioning the underlying SMAS support layer and not just the skin, we aim for an understated, durable and natural rejuvenation.

Personalized Planning

There is no single standard technique; the method and combination are selected for you after mapping your face, laxity pattern and skin quality.

Experienced Plastic Surgery Team

Internationally trained plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery specialists with high case experience in facial aesthetics.

Modern Technique and Technology

Deep plane and SMAS techniques, endoscopic approaches where indicated, three-dimensional facial simulation and concealed-incision planning.

International Patient Support

Visa invitation letters, airport transfers, accommodation, a medical interpreter and remote post-discharge follow-up are all coordinated end to end.

Privacy and Discretion

From appointment to discharge, the entire process is managed on a discreet pathway that protects your privacy.

Insurance & agreements

Transparent payment with contracted institutions and private insurers, at home and abroad.

Accommodation & rooms

Companion-friendly modern patient rooms and in-city accommodation support.

International patient services

Visa, airport transfer and 24/7 multilingual medical interpreters.

Transparent, guaranteed price

A quote prepared from your medical information; no extra charge for the treatments it covers.
OVERVIEW

Who it's for & conditions treated

Who is it for?
Those bothered by cheek descent, jowling and deepened facial folds.
Those concerned by neck laxity and loss of the chin-neck angle.
People in good general health, non-smokers or willing to quit, with realistic expectations.
Those who no longer get sufficient benefit from non-surgical options such as fillers, threads or skin care.
Patients with reasonably preserved skin elasticity who show moderate-to-advanced laxity.
People who want a natural, understated rejuvenation that still looks like them — to look rested rather than changed.

TREATMENT TIMELINE

From day one to discharge

The timeline below is an average and varies by patient, diagnosis and clinical status. Exact timing and all included services are detailed in your personalized treatment offer.
Assessment
Your facial map, skin quality and expectations are assessed; where helpful, a three-dimensional simulation lets us discuss the likely outcome together and choose the technique.
Preparation
Anesthesia evaluation, blood tests and health checks are completed; smoking, medication and nutrition guidance prepare your skin for surgery.
Surgery
Under general anesthesia or sedation, the planned technique is performed through incisions concealed at the hairline and around the ear; duration varies with the combination.
Early Recovery
Swelling and bruising are expected in the first days; a facial dressing, cold application and head-elevated rest help the edema settle quickly. Sutures are removed at follow-ups.
Follow-up
Return to social life is typically within a few weeks for most patients; the final natural result emerges as the tissues fully settle. For international patients, follow-up continues remotely.
Every treatment offer is presented in full detail — accommodation, transfer, interpreter and follow-up included — clearly stating what is covered.

My combined procedure was planned in one session, and my companion was looked after too.

Marta
Romania · Aesthetics

Before surgery they drew exactly where the scar would sit; there were no surprises later.

Karolina
Poland · Aesthetics
Illustrative review

What to do during recovery was given to me in writing; I did not proceed by guesswork.

Olga
Russia · Aesthetics
Illustrative review

We set my flight date together around the surgery calendar; I did not need to come twice.

Dinara

My privacy was respected from day one; for me that mattered as much as the result itself.
