Frequently Asked Questions

Age alone is not the determining factor for facelift surgery. Patients experiencing sagging cheeks, loss of jawline definition, and facial tissue laxity may be considered suitable candidates. Dr. Emre evaluates facial anatomy, skin elasticity, and individual expectations to determine whether surgical intervention is appropriate.

A Deep Plane Facelift is a surgical approach that involves releasing and repositioning specific deeper facial tissue layers. A traditional facelift may involve various SMAS techniques. Both approaches have their own advantages and limitations. The most appropriate technique depends on the patient's facial anatomy, degree of sagging, and the surgeon's clinical assessment.

The goal of facelift surgery is to reposition sagging facial tissues while preserving the patient's natural facial features. The surgical technique, facial anatomy, and healing process all influence the final appearance. However, potential risks include an overly tightened appearance, asymmetry, or facial nerve complications. Results may vary between patients.

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) can address excess skin on the upper eyelids and puffiness or bags beneath the eyes. However, not every concern around the eyes can be corrected through eyelid surgery alone. Factors such as drooping eyebrows, under-eye hollows, and skin quality must also be evaluated to determine the most appropriate surgical approach.

Facelift results can last for many years, but the natural aging process continues. Skin elasticity, genetics, smoking, sun exposure, and weight fluctuations can influence the longevity of the results. Therefore, no specific duration or permanently unchanged outcome can be guaranteed for every patient.

360° Liposuction is a body contouring approach that addresses fat deposits around the abdomen, waist, flanks, and back to create a more balanced body silhouette. The extent of treatment depends on the patient's fat distribution, skin elasticity, and overall health. Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure and may not adequately correct significant skin sagging on its own.

Breast augmentation aims to increase breast volume, while a breast lift reshapes and repositions sagging breast tissue. If both volume loss and significant sagging are present, the two procedures may be combined. The most appropriate surgical approach depends on nipple position, existing breast volume, skin quality, and the patient's expectations.

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized combination of aesthetic surgical procedures designed to address physical changes following pregnancy and childbirth. It may include a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, or breast lift. Whether these procedures can be performed during the same surgical session depends on the patient's overall health, total operating time, and associated surgical risks. When necessary, procedures may be performed in separate stages.

Excess skin following substantial weight loss can be reduced through body contouring procedures in suitable patients. Surgical options may include a tummy tuck, arm lift, thigh lift, or body lift. Before surgery, it is important to ensure that the patient's weight has remained stable for an appropriate period and to evaluate nutritional status and overall health.

Gynecomastia surgery aims to reduce enlarged male breast tissue and improve chest contour. Treatment may involve removal of excess glandular tissue, liposuction, or a combination of both techniques. Surgical results can be long-lasting; however, hormonal imbalances, certain medications, and significant weight changes may cause breast enlargement to recur. The underlying cause of the enlargement should be evaluated before surgery.
