Introduction
Facelift – restore the youthful firmness of your facial skin
Over time, facial skin loses its elasticity, contours become less defined, and deeper wrinkles also appear. A facelift can help you regain a youthful, fresh and natural appearance – without your face losing its unique character.
The aim of the procedure is to tighten the skin of the face and the underlying tissues, smoothing wrinkles and restoring the original shape of the facial contours. The result is harmonious, youthful facial features that give confidence in everyday life.
If you feel that your facial skin no longer reflects the youthful energy you feel inside, a facelift can help you recognise yourself in the mirror again.
At the Dr. Goodwin Beauty and Health Center, every treatment is personalised, taking into account your facial character, age and individual needs, so the result is aesthetic yet natural.

What is a facelift?
A facelift is a surgical procedure that lifts and tightens sagging facial skin and the underlying tissues. During the procedure, the plastic surgeon restores the original contours of the face, so the facial expression remains natural while the skin becomes smoother and firmer.
During the procedure, the surgeon gently removes excess skin and also tightens the deeper layers, making the result long-lasting and visibly effective. The purpose of a facelift is not to change the face, but to restore its youthful, harmonious appearance.
This procedure is an ideal choice if you would like your facial features to look fresh, vibrant and naturally youthful again.

Who is a facelift recommended for?
A facelift is recommended for those whose facial skin has sagged over time, whose wrinkles have become deeper, and whose face has lost its youthful contours.
If you feel that your facial skin is no longer as firm as it used to be and you would like to restore your natural, youthful appearance, this procedure may be right for you.
A facelift can help you look in the mirror again with a fresh, bright and youthful appearance – with a natural effect, without an artificial-looking facial expression.
Who is it not recommended for?
Who is a facelift not recommended for?
A facelift is a serious surgical procedure, so it is not recommended for everyone.
If your general health does not allow surgery, or if you have a blood clotting disorder or untreated high blood pressure, the plastic surgeon may recommend another solution after the initial assessment.
Surgery is also not recommended if:
- there is active skin inflammation or infection on the face,
- you smoke and cannot stop for at least a few weeks before and after surgery,
- you have unrealistic expectations regarding the procedure – the aim of a facelift is a youthful, natural appearance, not a complete transformation.
Before the treatment
Before a facelift
Facelift surgery is always preceded by a personal consultation, where your plastic surgeon examines you in detail and discusses the achievable results, the course of the procedure and any possible risks.
During the consultation:
- you will discuss which areas require skin tightening,
- your health condition and previous surgeries will be reviewed,
- you will receive information about what to do before surgery – for example, if certain medications need to be temporarily discontinued,
- and, of course, you will receive detailed answers to all your questions.
For a successful and safe result, it is important that you are completely healthy before surgery and follow the preparation advice given by your surgeon.

How a facelift is performed
Facelift surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and usually takes 3–4 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure required. The surgeon works along pre-planned, hidden incisions – typically in the hairline and in front of and behind the ear – so the scars later become almost invisible.
During the surgery, the surgeon tightens the deeper tissue layers of the face and then removes the excess skin. This helps the facial contours become firmer, more youthful and natural again. If necessary, the procedure may also extend to the neck area, ensuring harmony between the appearance of the face and neck.
At the end of the surgery, the wound is closed with fine sutures and a light pressure dressing is applied to reduce swelling. This is followed by a few hours of observation and, depending on the surgeon's decision, a 1–2 night stay at the clinic may be recommended.
After the treatment
After a facelift
After a facelift, you will need a few days of rest and gentle care so your body can recover undisturbed. Mild swelling, a feeling of tightness and bruising may occur after surgery, and these usually gradually disappear within a few weeks.
The dressing is usually removed after 1–2 days, and the sutures are removed after approximately 10–14 days. During this period, it is important to avoid physical exertion, bending forward, sauna use and sunbathing, as these can increase swelling and slow down healing.
Most people can return to their everyday activities after 2–3 weeks. The final result becomes visible after approximately 2–3 months, once the skin has settled completely and the swelling has disappeared.
The result of a facelift is long-lasting, especially if you maintain a healthy lifestyle and take good care of your skin. During follow-up examinations, your plastic surgeon regularly checks the healing process to ensure the result remains beautiful, harmonious and lasting.

What our patients say
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Mennyi ideig tart az arcplasztika eredménye?
Az arcplasztika hatása tartós – az eredmény általában 8–10 évig megmarad. Természetesen az öregedés természetes folyamata nem áll meg, de az arc mindig fiatalosabbnak és frissebbnek fog hatni, mint a beavatkozás nélkül.
Láthatóak maradnak a hegek?
A műtéti metszések rejtett területeken, a hajvonalban, a fül előtt és mögött helyezkednek el, így gyógyulás után a hegek szinte teljesen észrevehetetlenek.
Fájdalmas a beavatkozás?
A műtét altatásban történik, így nem érzel fájdalmat. A gyógyulás ideje alatt előfordulhat enyhe feszülés vagy duzzanat, amit orvosod által javasolt fájdalomcsillapítók segítenek enyhíteni.
Mikor térhetek vissza a munkába?
Általában 2-3 hét pihenés után már visszatérhetsz a mindennapi tevékenységeidhez, azonban a teljes felépülés körülbelül 4-6 hetet vesz igénybe.
Lehet sminket használni a műtét után?
A varratszedést követően, amikor a seb teljesen zárt, a smink fokozatosan visszavezethető, de érdemes kerülni az erős dörzsölést és az irritáló kozmetikumokat.
Kombinálható más beavatkozásokkal?
Igen, az arcplasztika kiegészíthető például szemhéjplasztikával vagy zsírfeltöltéssel, így még harmonikusabb és természetesebb eredmény érhető el.
