Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about mini face lift in Turkey
What is a mini face lift?
A mini face lift, also called a short-scar facelift or weekend facelift, targets the lower face and jawline with shorter incisions than a full facelift. It lifts sagging cheeks, jowls, and jawline with less invasive surgery, faster recovery, and minimal scarring.
Am I a good candidate for a mini face lift?
Ideal candidates are typically 40-60 years old with mild to moderate facial sagging, jowls, or loss of jawline definition. If you have significant neck laxity or deep wrinkles, a full face lift may be more appropriate. Your surgeon will recommend the best option.
How long do I need to stay in Turkey?
We recommend 6-7 nights in Istanbul. Day 1: Arrival. Day 2: Consultation and pre-op tests. Day 3: Surgery (day case). Days 4-6: Hotel recovery with daily check-ups. Day 7: Final check and departure.
Is a mini face lift safe in Turkey?
Yes. A mini face lift is a safe, well-established procedure with lower risk than a full facelift due to its less invasive nature. All surgeries are performed in internationally accredited hospitals with board-certified plastic surgeons specializing in facial rejuvenation.
What is the recovery time?
Recovery is faster than a full facelift. Swelling and bruising peak at days 3-5 and largely subside within 7-10 days. Most patients return to work in 1-2 weeks. Final results visible at 3-6 months once tissues fully settle.
Will I have visible scars?
Mini face lift incisions are shorter than full facelift incisions. They're hidden in front of and within the ear and in the hairline. Scars heal to become virtually invisible within 3-6 months.
How is a mini face lift different from a full face lift?
A mini face lift uses shorter incisions, targets the lower face and jawline, and has faster recovery. A full face lift addresses the entire face including neck with longer-lasting but more extensive surgery. Your surgeon will recommend which is best for you.
Can I combine a mini face lift with other procedures?
Yes. A mini face lift is commonly combined with blepharoplasty, neck lift, chin liposuction, or fat transfer for comprehensive rejuvenation. Combining procedures means one recovery period and harmonious results.
How long do results last?
Mini face lift results typically last 5-10 years. Results depend on factors like skin quality, lifestyle, and aging. While less long-lasting than a full facelift, many patients appreciate the natural results and easier recovery.
What aftercare is provided?
We provide lifetime aftercare including 24/7 WhatsApp support with your medical team, video consultations if needed, detailed recovery instructions, face bandage, and all necessary medications.
Why is a mini face lift cheaper in Turkey?
Lower operating costs, favorable exchange rates, and Turkey's investment in medical tourism infrastructure allow premium care at lower prices. Turkish surgeons use the same techniques as top Western clinics.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and cash payment. A deposit secures your booking, with the balance due before surgery. All prices are fully inclusive with no hidden fees.
