Aging under the eyes and around the nose sags the tissue. This sagging by showing the smile and cry line makes us think that the skin has become loose. By performing a cheek lift or the middle facelift, the sagging and the wrinkles can be smoothed and eliminated. This is how the drooping cheeks and dimples under the eyes are corrected and the face regains its youthful appearance.
This type of lift can have a surprising effect on facial rejuvenation for those who do not need a neck lift or do not have extra skin since the lower eyelids are also operated on and rejuvenated at the same time.
The suture line is not visible in this surgery since it is under the lower lashes. Sometimes a suture line is needed in the temple area, which is also completely covered between the hair.
Possible risks of cheek lift:
The cheek lifting risks are low, provided that the surgery is performed by a plastic surgeon who has sufficient experience.
The cheek lifting risks are as follow:
Swelling, bruising, infection, temporary or permanent impairment of sensory nerve function, and impaired wound healing.
