Mid-face lift is an operation that solves the problems of the middle third of the face. This procedure is frequently carried out with temple lift in order to give more younger appearance to the patient. In addition a brow lift is achieved as well as an almond-cat eye.
This surgery lasts around 1 hour or 2 hours under general anesthesia. Patients are hospitalized for 1 day. This surgery can be performed with incisions made from the lower eyelid area and/or temple area. In some cases, endoscopy is also used according to the physician’s preference.
Postoperative swelling and bruising can manifest for 1 week but this is entirely temporary. The face takes its permanent shape in a few weeks with flawless outcome.
