IN DETAIL

About the procedure in detail

The surgery is performed by a maxillofacial surgeon

The surgery is performed by a maxillofacial surgeon

Yerkin Manatovich Turdiyev is a maxillofacial surgeon with 8 years of experience working in a hospital. Knowledge of the muscles, the vessels, the nerves and the bone and soft-tissue structures of the face helps him to choose more precisely the plane of the lift and the scope of the correction, and to take the surgical risks into account.

Preparation and how the operation goes

Preparation and how the operation goes

All operations are planned procedures. Before the intervention the patient goes through the obligatory preoperative examination: laboratory tests and, when there are indications for them, consultations with doctors in the relevant specialities and additional investigations. The list of these is determined by the treating doctor, taking into account the extent of the operation and the type of anaesthesia.

The lift is performed in the clinic's own operating room with anaesthesiological support. After the operation the patient stays under the supervision of the medical staff for as long as the indications require it to be so.

Recovery

Recovery

In the first days after the operation the swelling and the bruising are clearly noticeable - in every patient they go away at their own individual pace. The sutures are removed at a follow-up examination, after which the appearance of the face gradually becomes natural again.

The timing of the return to work and the restrictions on physical exertion are named by the surgeon - they depend on the zone of correction and on the way the healing is progressing. The final result is assessed several months later, once the tissues have fully stabilised.

REVIEWS

Patient reviews

I started thinking about a facelift when creams stopped helping. I wanted to look refreshed rather than "operated on". The surgeon explained the difference between zones and suggested the option that was right for me. I am very happy with the result: a defined contour and a rested appearance. My colleagues keep asking where I went on holiday.

Zarina B. Astana

Creams and cosmetology treatments stopped working, my facial contour had 'sagged', and it was noticeable in photos. The surgeon explained the difference between lift zones in detail at the consultation and suggested an option that suited my case. Recovery took about three weeks, after which life went back to normal. My contour is noticeably more defined now, and my face looks rested rather than 'pulled'.

Assel R. Almaty

A double chin and sagging tissue appeared after rapid weight loss, even though I wasn't that old. The doctor identified the cause and suggested a correction zone without pushing for more than was needed. The surgery and recovery followed the plan explained in advance. I'm happy with the result - my profile is more defined without the feeling that 'something was done'.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Which lifting method is used?

The main methods are the SMAS lift and Deep Plane. The surgeon chooses the technique, or a combination of techniques, after the examination, taking into account the facial anatomy and the scope of correction.

What kind of anaesthesia is used?

The type of anaesthesia depends on the scope of the operation - from local anaesthesia to general anaesthesia. The decision is taken by the surgeon and the anaesthesiologist at the consultation.

Where are the scars placed?

Incisions are placed within the hairline and behind the ear, where they become virtually unnoticeable.

Does it hurt after the operation?

In the first days there may be moderate pulling sensations and discomfort, which are relieved with the prescribed medication. The operation does not usually cause severe pain.

When can I go back to work?

With quiet work, usually after one and a half to two weeks, when the main swelling has gone down. The surgeon gives the exact timing according to the scope of the operation.

How long do the results last?

A surgical lift gives a noticeably longer-lasting effect than injectable methods and holds for years, although age-related changes continue.

Are there any contraindications?

The surgeon clarifies the contraindications at the examination and from the results of the preoperative examination - they depend on general health and on any concurrent conditions.
