Comparison
SMAS facelift options compared
The scope of a SMAS facelift depends on your anatomy and how much correction is needed. Compare two options — the surgeon will help you choose the right one at the consultation.
SMAS facelift (mid and lower face)
Incisions hidden along the hairline and ears
from $2,400
- Main goal
- Lift the cheeks and remove jowls
- When it is done
- Jowls, sagging cheeks, nasolabial folds
- Scope of correction
- Skin and SMAS of the mid and lower face
Lower face and neck lift (SMAS)
Focused on the lower face, chin and neck
from $2,400
- Main goal
- Remove a double chin and jowls
- When it is done
- Sagging of the lower face and neck
- Scope of correction
- Small incisions, barely visible scars
The benefits and recovery times shown are averaged for each technique and given for guidance: the scope of correction and rehabilitation depend on your anatomy and individual features, and the surgeon confirms them at the consultation.
At the consultation the surgeon draws up a plan for your case and explains how your SMAS facelift will go.
Free, before surgery and with no obligation.

Book a consultationHow it works
From consultation —
to the final result
An agreed surgical plan, inpatient monitoring and follow-up by your surgeon for a year.
1Consultation
and surgical plan
The 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.
2Booking the date
of surgery
We book a date that suits you. The scope of surgery and the final price are fixed in the contract — no hidden extras.
3Check-up before
surgery
You complete the check-up prescribed by the surgeon and see the anaesthetist. The specialists assess your health and readiness for surgery.
4The operation
Under 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.
5Inpatient stay
After surgery you stay in a comfortable inpatient room with meals, under 24/7 monitoring by medical staff.
6Recovery
For the first 7–10 days — rest, a compression bandage and reduced physical activity. Your operating surgeon follows you up for the whole first year.
Recovery after a SMAS facelift
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
We answer what
people ask before booking
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.
Surgery is performed under general (inhalation) anaesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain. In the first few days you may feel discomfort and tightness, relieved with medication prescribed by your doctor.
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. Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty or double-chin liposuction are often combined with a surgical facelift. The scope of a combined procedure is decided 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.
A skin-only (standard) lift affects the top layer of skin alone and its effect is short-lived. A SMAS facelift is deeper: the surgeon operates on the facial muscle and fascia layer, lifting tissues where the cause lies rather than the effect. The outcome is natural and long-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.
Usually surgery is recommended for patients aged 40+ with marked tissue sagging, and occasionally from 35. The recommendation is individual, made after an examination.
Book a free consultation with the surgeon, who will examine you, assess the type and degree of ageing, explain the expected result and answer your questions.
What is a SMAS facelift and who is it for?
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.
Skin loses firmness little by little after 40–50: tissues sag, jowls form, the jawline becomes blurred and the cheeks droop. A surgical SMAS facelift acts deeper than cosmetology, repositioning the muscle and fascia layer — it treats the cause of sagging, not the effects, and so lasts even with significant changes.
How our SMAS facelift is performed
Surgical lift only
City Medical Centre performs surgical facelifts only: work on the SMAS layer treats the cause of sagging rather than its effects
Three levels of correction
Skin, subcutaneous fat and the muscle and fascia layer are corrected layer by layer — a natural look with no “mask” effect
Hidden incisions
Incisions are hidden along the hairline and around the ears, so once healed the scars are barely visible
