Deep-Plane Facelift

A deep-plane facelift releases and lifts the SMAS layer — the sheet of muscle and fascia beneath the skin — instead of pulling the skin itself. Because tension sits on the deep layer, the skin is redraped without stretch, so the result avoids the wind-swept look and lasts longer, typically 8–12 years. Incisions follow the hairline and the natural crease in front of the ear. Most patients are socially presentable in 2–3 weeks.

Why patients choose Istanbul

Turkey combines high surgical volume with lower running costs, which is why the same materials and devices used in Western Europe cost a fraction here. Swedish Clinic works inside a licensed full-fledged hospital under a Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate, holds Temos international accreditation and runs an ISO 9001 (UKAS) certified management system — the three things worth checking before you book anywhere abroad.

Missing teeth affected my daily life for years. From the first exam my doctor’s care and expertise made me feel safe at every stage.

One year on and nobody can tell. The hairline they designed suits my face — it does not look transplanted.

I wanted my nose softened, not replaced. The surgeon showed me the simulation and the result is exactly that.

Fourteen months on and I am 38 kilos lighter. The dietitian called me every single month — that made the difference.

Frequently asked questions

Deep-Plane Facelift

Deep-plane repositions the muscle layer as one unit and gives a more natural mid-face lift; classic SMAS is still valid for lighter cases.

Swelling and bruising peak at days 3–5. Most patients are socially presentable at 2–3 weeks and fully settled at 3 months.
