2 Weeks After Face And Neck Lift

Facelift

A facelift can be a transformative plastic surgery procedure which can refresh and rejuvenate the face. A facelift’s main aim is to improve the contour of the jawline and jowls which can make you look tired and older. A facelift also usually addresses the neck area to improve the platysmal band and tighten the neck.

How Long Does It Take For Your Face To Look Normal After A Facelift?

Patients are usually looking very well and the swelling has dramatically improved by 6 weeks. However, by 2 weeks the majority of patients have recovered enough to feel comfortable at work or a party. Swelling continues to improve for up 12 months after the operation.

What İs The Best Age To Get A Facelift?

There is no best age to have a facelift. If someone has features a facelift can improve then they are a candidate for surgery. These features include jowls, deep nasolabial fold, lack of jawline contour, plastymal bands, wrinkled and sagging skin on the neck (“Turkey neck”). Generally, most patients that have a facelift are above the age of 40.
