Book a consultationHow it works
An agreed surgical plan, inpatient monitoring and follow-up by your surgeon for a year.
1The surgeon examines you, assesses the degree of sagging and the areas to correct, and explains the surgery and recovery. The first consultation is free and can start online.
2We book a date that suits you. The scope of surgery and the final price are fixed in the contract — no hidden extras.
3You complete the check-up prescribed by the surgeon and see the anaesthetist. The specialists assess your health and readiness for surgery.
4Under general (inhalation) anaesthesia the surgeon lifts and secures the SMAS layer, redrapes the skin and removes the excess. Incisions are hidden along the hairline and around the ears.
5After surgery you stay in a comfortable inpatient room with meals, under 24/7 monitoring by medical staff.
6For the first 7–10 days — rest, a compression bandage and reduced physical activity. Your operating surgeon follows you up for the whole first year.

For the first 7–10 days you need rest, a compression bandage and reduced physical activity. For the first few days you may feel discomfort and tightness, which are relieved with medication prescribed by your doctor.
Swelling and bruising fade in 2–4 weeks, and full recovery takes about 2 months. The first clear changes appear once the swelling goes down, after 3–4 weeks; the face takes on its final look within 3–6 months. Your operating surgeon follows you up for the whole first year.

FAQ
It is a face lift that tightens the deep SMAS layer under the skin, not only the skin itself, so the lower face, jawline and neck become firmer. The result is long-term, while natural skin ageing continues.
General (inhalation) anaesthesia is used, so the surgery is painless. You may feel some discomfort and tightness for the first few days; medication prescribed by your doctor relieves it.
The first clear changes appear once the swelling goes down, after 3–4 weeks. The face takes on its final look within 3–6 months. The result of a surgical SMAS facelift is long-term, while natural skin ageing continues.
Yes. For the first 7–10 days you need rest, a compression bandage and less physical activity. Swelling and bruising fade in 2–4 weeks, and full recovery takes about 2 months. Your operating surgeon follows you up for the whole first year.
Yes. Surgical facelifts are frequently combined with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty or liposuction of the double chin. The scope of the combined procedure is set by the surgeon at the consultation.
Payment is made in full before the procedure. If you would like to spread the cost, you can take out a loan with your own bank and pay the full amount with it.
Only the top layer of skin is affected by a standard (skin-only) lift, which gives a short-lived effect. A SMAS facelift is surgery at a deeper level — on the facial muscle and fascia layer — lifting tissues at the cause rather than the effect. The outcome is natural and lasting.
One surgery gives a complete result. Whether a repeat correction is ever needed is individual and is decided by the surgeon at an examination.
As a rule, we recommend surgery for patients 40+ with marked tissue sagging, and in certain cases from 35. The recommendation is made individually after an examination.
Book a free consultation. The surgeon will examine you, assess how and how much you are ageing, explain the expected result and answer all your questions.
City Medical Centre performs surgical facelifts only. The surgeon tailors the scope of surgery at the consultation, after assessing the changes and explaining every stage. The skin, subcutaneous fat and the SMAS layer (muscles and ligaments) are corrected layer by layer, so the face looks natural, without an “overdone” effect, and the result is long-term — while natural skin ageing continues.
Beyond 40–50 the skin gradually loses firmness: noticeable sagging, jowls, a blurred jawline and drooping cheeks. A surgical SMAS facelift works deeper than cosmetology by repositioning the muscle and fascia layer; it treats the cause of sagging, not its effects, and delivers a lasting result even with significant changes.

What changes after a facelift? The lower-face contour becomes crisp, the cheeks are lifted, the chin line is clean without a double chin and nasolabial folds soften. Brows rise and the eyes look more open. The aim for patients from Alexandria is a younger, fresher look without an overdone effect or a mask-like appearance. One surgery gives a complete result; the result is long-term, while natural skin ageing continues.
Follow-up does not end at discharge. Throughout the first year, your plastic surgeon monitors how the face settles and checks the result until it is final. Personal support is provided before and after surgery. When combined procedures such as eyelid surgery or double-chin liposuction are planned, the surgeon sets their scope in advance. For patients from Alexandria, every step is agreed at the consultation.
A free consultation is the easiest way to get an exact figure. The surgeon assesses the degree of sagging and the zones to correct, recommends the type of lift and names the final price; a facelift starts from $2,400 (≈ EGP 130,000). Apply before the end of the year and the consultation is free. Patients from Alexandria can message us in any messenger.
Alexandria, Egypt's main Mediterranean port city, is home to more than five million people, according to the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics, and its coastal position gives it a noticeably more humid climate than Cairo or inland Egypt. Summer days routinely reach 29-31 degrees Celsius with humidity often above 65-70%, while the milder season from roughly November to February brings daytime highs closer to 18-21 degrees and cooler, damper nights.
A facelift's incisions sit mainly in the hairline, and the first seven to ten days call for rest and a compression bandage along with less physical activity, while swelling and bruising generally fade over the following two to four weeks. Fresh incisions are more sensitive to direct sun and to heat, which can add to swelling, so staying in shade or air-conditioned rooms during that stretch, and avoiding the strongest midday sun once any bandage comes off, both help the early days feel less uncomfortable in a hot, humid city.
By the three-to-four-week mark, when the first visible changes start to show, and through to the three-to-six-month point when the final result settles, ordinary sun care is usually enough: a hat and sunscreen on any skin that's already healed. Patients who can schedule the procedure for the cooler months between November and February often find that early rest period easier to get through than in peak summer heat.
Surgeons practising in Alexandria are registered with the Egyptian Medical Syndicate, the national body that records and licenses physicians across Egypt. Before committing to a date, it is reasonable to ask the clinic for the operating surgeon's syndicate registration number and specifically how many years and how many cases of SMAS facelift surgery they have performed, since technique and experience vary across different cosmetic procedures.
It's also worth asking whether the surgeon who assesses your skin and face shape at the consultation is the one who will operate, and to review recent before-and-after results from patients of a similar age and degree of skin laxity before making a decision.
With more than five million residents and a mix of office work, port-related industry and tourism, most patients considering a facelift in Alexandria are also working around a normal schedule. The first seven to ten days of rest with a compression bandage, followed by another two to four weeks while swelling and bruising fade, is worth blocking out in advance with an employer rather than deciding week by week.
Because heat and direct sun can add to swelling and are harder on sensitive incisions, some patients prefer to schedule that early rest period for the milder months between November and February, when staying indoors and out of strong sun is simply easier to manage than during an Alexandria summer.
Yes. Telegram and WhatsApp with the clinic's coordinators stay open around the clock, so you can send photos and a description of your concerns and learn what the consultation itself is likely to cover.
The milder months from roughly November to February, with daytime highs near 18-21 degrees, are gentler on the first seven to ten days of rest and the following weeks of fading swelling than the hot, humid summer, when sun and heat add to the discomfort.
Expect seven to ten days of rest with a compression bandage, followed by two to four weeks while most swelling and bruising fade, with the first real visible changes showing around three to four weeks and the final result settling over three to six months.
Ask for their Egyptian Medical Syndicate registration number - the syndicate is the national body that registers and licenses every physician practising in the country - before you book a date.
