A facelift moves skin, and some of that skin carries hair. Here is how the temporal hairline and sideburns can shift, how incision planning protects them, and what helps if hair thins.

A facelift lifts sagging tissue; a laser treats the skin surface. Studies suggest the two can be combined safely when the laser is adjusted over lifted skin. Here is what to know.

A facelift does not shorten a long upper lip. A lip lift does. Here is why the lip lengthens with age, when combining the two makes sense, and what the scar looks like.

A lower facelift targets the jawline, jowls and upper neck. A full facelift also lifts the cheeks and midface. Here is how to tell which one your face needs.

Drains remove fluid after a facelift; the hemostatic net closes the space where fluid collects. Here is what the research says about each, and the questions worth asking.

Gentle lymphatic drainage may help facelift swelling settle, but the evidence is indirect. Learn when to start, what it should feel like and what to avoid.

Numb cheeks and ears are a normal part of facelift healing. Here is why it happens, how long it lasts, and the signs that point to a nerve problem instead.

Energy devices can tighten skin a little. They cannot reposition sagging deep tissue. Here is what Morpheus8, Ultherapy and a facelift each do for jowls and neck.

Years of filler do not rule out a facelift. Learn when dissolving with hyaluronidase helps, how long to wait before surgery and what cannot be dissolved.

"Preservation facelift" is a newer label, not one fixed operation. Here is how it differs from a deep plane facelift, what the evidence shows and who suits each.

How much is a deep plane facelift? Prices in the US, the UK and Turkey compared, what a quote must include, and how the fee is set in Istanbul.

The most reliable way to check a surgeon’s academic record is at the source. Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas keeps a public NCBI My Bibliography on the website of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), part of the U.S. National Library of Medicine, which also runs PubMed. Journal articles that are indexed in PubMed link directly to their PubMed and DOI records, so anyone can open the original papers. As of October 2026 the bibliography holds 63 records from 2010 to

Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas, plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgeon in Istanbul, is listed as faculty of the NYC Facelift & Rhinoplasty Master Course™ in New York. His faculty profile is published by the course’s continuing medical education provider, AKH Inc., Advancing Knowledge in Healthcare, on its own website: AKH CME faculty profile of Suleyman Tas, Prof.Dr., MD, FEBOPRAS. Because that page is written and hosted by an independent, accredited education provider rather

What a deep plane facelift is, how it differs from SMAS and mini facelifts, recovery, results and risks, explained by Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas.

Facelift cost in Turkey compared with the UK and the US, what a quote should include, and how Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas sets the fee after reviewing your photographs.

Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas performs the deep plane face and neck lift awake, under local anesthesia, without general anesthesia. Six to eight hours, one patient per day, and you walk out the same day.

A facelift repositions sagging tissue, but the skin surface has its own ageing. Here is what lifts, what needs laser or fat grafting, and how the two are combined.

A pulled-down, attached earlobe is one of the most visible signs of a facelift. Here is why it happens, how careful technique prevents it and how it can be repaired.

Good preparation lowers the risk of bleeding and wound problems and makes recovery smoother. Here is what to do four weeks, two weeks and the day before your deep plane facelift.

Sleeping well after a facelift reduces swelling and protects the lift. Here is how to position yourself, how long to sleep on your back and what helps on the first nights.

A thread lift is quick and needs little downtime, but it cannot move the deep tissues that cause jowls and folds. Here is an honest comparison with the deep plane facelift.

A "pulled" facelift usually comes from stretching the skin sideways instead of moving the deeper tissues upward. Here are the causes and what a natural-looking facelift does differently.

Retaining ligaments are the anchors that hold the face in place. With age they become the reason sagging tissue cannot move. Here is how releasing them changes a facelift.

Nasolabial folds deepen mainly because the cheek fat slides down. A deep plane facelift can lift it back, but some folds also need fat grafting or skin treatment. Here is what to expect.

An extended deep plane facelift releases more of the ligaments that hold the cheek and neck down, so the midface, jowls and neck can be lifted together. Here is when it makes sense and what to expect.

Both techniques lift the deeper muscle layer of the face, not just the skin. The difference is where the surgeon works and whether the retaining ligaments are released. Here is what that means for your result.

Quick answer: Adult otoplasty (otoplasty for adults) corrects prominent ears by reshaping the ear cartilage and setting the ears closer to the head. It is usually done under local anaesthesia in about one hour, and you go home the same day. The scar is hidden behind the ear. Adult cartilage is firmer than in children, so the technique must reshape it reliably; Prof. Dr. Suleyman Tas uses a flap technique he published in the Annals of Plastic Surgery. Key takeaways There is no

Quick answer: Fox eye surgery lifts the tail of the eyebrow and the outer corner of the eye towards the temple, creating a longer, almond-shaped eye. The surgical version repositions the tissues through small incisions hidden in the hairline of the temple and, when needed, tightens the outer eye corner (canthopexy). Its result lasts for years, while a thread lift usually relaxes within months. Key takeaways The fox eye look is created mainly by lifting the outer brow and the

Quick answer: Tuberous (tubular) breasts develop with a narrow base, a high fold under the breast, a large or puffy areola and often uneven sizes. Correction releases the tight lower part of the breast, lowers the fold, reshapes the areola and adds volume with an implant, fat transfer or both. A standard breast augmentation alone can make the shape worse, so the technique must be planned specifically for this condition. Key takeaways Tuberous breast is a developmental shape d

Quick answer: Wide nose rhinoplasty narrows the parts of the nose that make it look wide: the bony bridge, the cartilage of the tip and, when needed, the nostrils. The bridge is narrowed by repositioning the nasal bones, the tip by reshaping cartilage and the nostrils by small incisions hidden in the natural crease. The nose must be narrowed without collapsing the inner airway, so breathing is protected at every step. Key takeaways A nose can look wide because of the bones, t

Quick answer: Seven days after rhinoplasty, the cast or splint is removed and you see the new shape of your nose for the first time. At this point the nose is still swollen, especially at the tip, the tip may look slightly upturned and the skin may feel numb. Bruising is usually fading or already gone. Most visible swelling settles within 2 to 3 weeks, while the tip keeps settling for 12 months or longer in thick skin. Key takeaways The cast usually comes off around day 7; yo

Quick answer: A mommy makeover in Turkey combines breast surgery (a lift, an augmentation or both) with a tummy tuck and, often, liposuction in one operation. It treats the changes pregnancy and breastfeeding leave behind: loose skin, separated abdominal muscles and deflated or sagging breasts. The right time is at least 6 months after breastfeeding ends, when you do not plan more pregnancies. Most patients travelling to Istanbul stay about 10 days. Key takeaways One anaesthe

After losing a lot of weight, loose abdominal skin rarely improves with exercise. Here is when a tummy tuck makes sense, what it involves and how recovery goes.
