Facelift for Patients from New Kingston

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.

Once swelling subsides, after 3–4 weeks, the first clear changes appear. The final look of the face forms within 3–6 months, and after a surgical SMAS facelift the effect lasts 7–10 years.

Yes. During the first 7–10 days: rest, a compression bandage and less physical activity. Swelling and bruising fade within 2–4 weeks, and full recovery takes about 2 months. For the whole first year, your operating surgeon follows you up.

Yes. A surgical facelift is often combined with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty or double-chin liposuction. The scope of a combined procedure is decided by the surgeon at the consultation.

Yes, City Medical Centre has in-house 0% instalments: pay in parts, with no overpayment or bank interest.

In a standard (skin-only) lift, only the top skin layer is affected and the effect is short-lived. A SMAS facelift is a deeper operation — the surgeon works on the muscle and fascia layer of the face, lifting tissues at the cause rather than the effect, for a natural and lasting outcome.

A complete result is achieved in one surgery. A repeat procedure after 7–10 years is possible if the patient wishes.

In general, surgery is recommended for patients 40+ who have marked tissue sagging, and in some cases from 35. Each recommendation is given individually after an examination.
