THE PROCEDURE

What is a facelift?

A facelift (rhytidectomy) repositions the deeper layers of facial tissue and removes excess skin to soften deep folds and restore definition along the jaw and neck.

Facelift techniques may involve skin, SMAS and deeper tissues. The proposed plane and extent depend on anatomy and goals; scars, asymmetry, altered sensation and an appearance that differs from expectations remain possible.

At Revitalize in Turkey, the written plan should identify the named contracted surgeon and facility, technique, alternatives, limits, risks, costs, travel support and follow-up responsibilities.

Board Certified Surgeons

The written proposal identifies the named surgeon and facility so registration, role and relevant experience can be checked.

Mandarin Grove Retreat

24/7 available aftercare personnel to assist you with any of your needs.

All Inclusive Packages

Your package not only covers your treatment, but also aftercare, accommodation, transfers and all your needs.

SUITABILITY

Are you a candidate for facelift?

A facelift may be right for you if you:

Notice sagging in the mid- and lower face, jowls along the jawline, or loose skin on the neck
Are in good general health and a non-smoker, or able to stop before surgery
Have realistic expectations about a natural, refreshed result
Understand that surgery and non-surgical options have different risks and no duration or appearance is guaranteed

Photographs may support preliminary review but do not establish suitability. The named surgeon should assess health, medicines, smoking, anatomy and goals, and discuss no treatment, less invasive options or staged surgery where appropriate.

COSTS

Facelift costs

Facelift surgery at Revitalize in Turkey starts from £3,400. The final cost depends on the technique used — a mini facelift, a SMAS lift and a deep plane facelift are not equivalent procedures — and on whether the facelift is combined with a neck lift, eyelid surgery or fat transfer.

Your itemised quotation is confirmed after a clinical assessment and sets out what is included and what is not. Prices are indicative and may change.

Facelift procedure performed, typically 2–4 hours.

RECOVERY

Facelift recovery timeline

Early recovery: Pain, swelling, bruising, bleeding, tightness, numbness and reduced movement can occur. Follow individual instructions for medicines, drains, dressings, wound care and warning signs.

Travel and activity: Suture or drain removal, work, exercise and permission to fly are individual. Do not rely on a generic timetable.

Longer recovery: Swelling, scars, sensation and contour can change for many months. Asymmetry, hairline change, skin loss, nerve injury or dissatisfaction can require further care.

SAFETY FIRST

Risks & safety

Facelift surgery carries risks including pain, bleeding, haematoma, infection, scarring, hair loss, skin or tissue loss, delayed healing, asymmetry, altered sensation, facial nerve injury or weakness, anaesthetic complications, blood clots, dissatisfaction and revision surgery.

Assessment and risk-reduction measures cannot eliminate complications. The named surgeon should explain individual risk, urgent symptoms, emergency arrangements, follow-up and responsibility for additional care or costs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I chose Revitalise in November 2025 for a deep plane facelift, neck lift, temple brow lift, and facial fat grafting. I was quite apprehensive beforehand, but the moment I met the surgeon and the team, all my worries disappeared. They were absolutely incredible , professional, reassuring, and genuinely caring. We stayed at the Mandarin resort, which was lovely overall, and although there are a few small areas that could be improved, the experience surrounding the surgery itself was exceptional. Professor Ahmets hands gave me complete confidence, and the nurses were attentive, kind, and consistently supportive. Our chaperones were brilliant throughout the stay. We had a few different ones, but Abbie supported my husband and me for most of our time there, and she was truly outstanding. Teona was also wonderful at the resort and Lali The rest of the staff appear to be kind too. We really enjoyed our time in Izmir exploring the bazaar, trying different restaurants, seeing the local sights, and having moments of proper relaxation too. The only area I feel could benefit from improvement is the food at the resort. Because it’s quite a distance from other places to eat, having more substantial meal options would make a big difference, especially for Brits recovering from surgery who often need protein-rich, hearty meals. The soups and porridge were delicious, but sometimes you just need a proper meal with meat and carbs to support recovery. Aside from that, everything else was faultless. My husband also had dental work done, and the dentist was extremely attentive. I’ve already booked to return this year for a breast revision and hairline procedure with Revitalise. Thank you so much for everything especially Teona and Abbi ❤️

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The whole process from start to finish was very slick, friendly and professional. I was met at the airport by a lovely driver and there was another young lady with me as well. We were dropped to the villa and given some soup which was nice. Next day I had my surgery. Deep plane facelift, neck lift, temporal brow lift and upper eyes. Everything went well and I spent the next 6 nights at the villa recovering. It’s a lovely place to stay and you can even just pick oranges off the trees! They are super delicious. I walked down to the sea one day as well. There are a couple of mini markets you can buy things from. I 100% recommend this clinic to anyone looking to have surgery. It takes all the stress out of it and they even found the flights for me! One lady who was there with me had been there 6 times and when she told me her age I very nearly fell off my chair lol! Will definitely be back possibly for teeth. Thank you all so much and see you again :-)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Me and my husband went for dental implants in Izmir and after a couple of months evaluating options we choose Revitalize. It was the best decision! We have just completed the second phase of our treatment last Monday and we couldn´t be happier. It is true, it is not painless as the say, but all in all worthed the disconforth we had, during same (few) steps. For sure, if an acquaintance of ours wish to perform outstanding oral surgery at a very good price, we will sure recomend Revitalize.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just been to Revitalize for my second time.  For someone going alone for surgery which is obviously a scary experience I highly recommended this company.    They took fantastic care of me the whole way through and everything is super professional. The staff are all very kind and the accommodation is lovely.  Since I've come home they have answered my queries right away too. I met some really great other people at the villa and enjoyed getting to know them and our meal times together. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Revitalize if you are considering it 😊

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an extended Tummy Tuck in February 2024. The service was outstanding. On arriving the driver was waiting for me to take me to the villa. The villa is just amazing, helpful friendly and experienced staff on call 24/7 The surgeon was friendly and informative The hospital was spotless, I stayed for 1 night before going back to the villa to recover for a further 8 nights The room at the villa had everything I needed and pull cords should help have been needed, thankfully it wasn’t. The grounds and pool were perfect, unfortunately I could only look at the pool due to surgery. February 2025 and I’m back, this time for breast reduction and uplift. Again can’t find fault in anything. Staff always on hand to help, hospital and villa spotless. What next ……

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Unparalleled service and care provided. Their unique set up of providing pre- and post-operative support is incredible. You have 24/7 on site support as well as residing with patients undergoing similar procedures. Their English speaking surgeons really listen and treat you as individuals rather than a conveyor belt of procedures. The camaraderie that you build at the villa is unmatchable. I cannot recommend this company highly enough.

Is a facelift painful?

Pain, pressure and tightness vary and medicines may not remove them completely. Ask about pain control and urgent symptoms.

When will I look “normal” again?

Swelling, bruising, scars and asymmetry resolve at different rates. There is no guaranteed date for being socially presentable.

Will I have visible scars?

Facelift incisions leave scars. Position and visibility depend on technique, healing, skin and complications; inconspicuous scars cannot be guaranteed.

How do I know which facelift type is right for me?

The named surgeon should recommend a technique only after assessing anatomy, health, goals, alternatives and risks.

What is the difference between a facelift and a thread lift?

They have different indications, duration, limitations and risks. Neither guarantees a particular or natural-looking result.

Will my results look natural?

No particular appearance can be guaranteed. Outcome varies with anatomy, planning, healing, scars and complications.

How long does recovery take?
