Youthful radiance through a facelift in Vienna

Facelift with JUVENIS

Over the years, the skin and underlying tissue lose their natural elasticity. A facelift will conjure up a youthful, fresh and dynamic appearance on your face.

As the tissue in the face and/or neck slackens and sags over time, the proportions of the face change. Facelift surgery is designed to give the skin and tissue new tension and provide you with long-lasting facial rejuvenation (facial correction).

Today, modern plastic surgery methods make it possible to conjure up a new youthful, fresh and dynamic appearance with a customized face lift.

Facelift: possible lifting options

Minilift in Vienna

A mini-lift is a minimally invasive procedure that lifts sagging cheeks and tightens the skin.

Facelift / Facelifting in Vienna

The facelift tightens the skin and tissue in the cheek area, smoothes the nasolabial fold and lifts sagging tissue in the jawline. The incision is made in front of the ear and continues around the base of the earlobe to the back of the ear and curves towards the hairline. During this operation, the connective tissue under the skin (SMAS) is tightened, the excess skin is removed and also tightened. Drains are inserted to drain wound secretions that may form after the operation. These drains are usually removed on the first day after the operation. A head and face bandage is applied after the operation.

Neck lift in Vienna

A neck lift tightens the sagging tissue on the neck. Excess fatty tissue (the so-called double chin) can be corrected by liposuction. The neck lift can be combined well with a facelift.

The costs you will incur will also be discussed.

All your questions will be answered in detail. Only when you have made a decision in peace will we arrange a treatment appointment with you.

The operation

To smooth out a sagging face, a facelift removes excess skin and tissue and tightens the contours of the face. The operation takes about 2-6 hours. A head bandage is applied.

The classic facelift is a procedure that our plastic surgeons perform under general anesthesia in a cooperating hospital.

A minilift can also be performed under local anesthesia or in twilight sleep.

If the surgical and postoperative course is free of complications, a day hospital stay is sufficient. A clinical stay is possible if required.

After the facelift

After 1 to 2 days, the head bandage is replaced by a smaller bandage. After the operation, there may be temporary swelling, bruising, numbness and a feeling of tension in the area of the operation.

Hair washing, showering and bathing are possible again after removing the head bandage.
Make-up can be used again approx. 1-2 weeks after the procedure.
Sports and heavy physical work should be avoided for 5-6 weeks after the operation;
Avoid sunbathing, visits to the solarium, sauna and steam bath for approx. 6-8 weeks or not possible.
Hair coloring and perms are possible again after approx. 6 - 7 weeks.
