Facelift in
Mersin, Turkey
Look 10–15 years younger — naturally. Op. Dr. Hilmi Berkant Tunç performs full facelift, mini facelift and neck lift in Mersin, Turkey. No "done" look — just a refreshed, natural version of you.
Facelift (Rhytidectomy) in Turkey
A facelift (rhytidectomy) removes excess skin, repositions facial tissues and tightens the underlying SMAS layer — correcting jowls, deep nasolabial folds, neck banding and facial sagging for a comprehensive, lasting rejuvenation.
Op. Dr. Hilmi Berkant Tunç's philosophy is simple: a facelift should make you look like yourself — just younger. The "pulled" or "surprised" look is the result of poor technique. Natural results come from repositioning tissues rather than simply pulling skin.
International patients benefit from 50–70% lower costs compared to the UK, Germany or the Netherlands — with the same surgical standards.
"A good facelift should make people say you look wonderful — not that you've had surgery."
— Op. Dr. Hilmi Berkant Tunç · Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
Which Facelift Is Right for You?
The technique is chosen based on age, skin laxity, facial anatomy and desired outcome — determined during your personal consultation.
Full SMAS Facelift
The SMAS muscle-fascial layer is repositioned alongside the skin. Addresses the entire face, jowls and neck. Results last 8–12 years. Gold standard technique.
Mini Facelift
Smaller incisions targeting the lower face and jowls. Ideal for patients in their 40s–50s with earlier-stage laxity. Shorter recovery. Results last 5–7 years.
Neck Lift
Corrects neck skin laxity, platysma banding and double chin. Performed alone or combined with facelift for a sharp, defined jaw-neck angle.
Facelift + Eye & Brow
Facelift combined with blepharoplasty and/or brow lift in one session. Comprehensive full-face rejuvenation for the most transformative result.
What Does a Facelift Fix?
A facelift addresses the following signs of ageing that cannot be corrected with injectables or skincare alone.
Jowls
Sagging skin along the jawline that blurs the jaw definition — permanently lifted and repositioned.
Nasolabial Folds
Deep nose-to-mouth lines caused by tissue descent — significantly softened.
Neck Banding
Platysma muscle bands and loose neck skin — corrected for a sharp, youthful jaw-neck angle.
Cheek Sagging
Descended cheek fat pads repositioned to restore youthful facial volume and contour.
Why Choose Turkey for a Facelift?
Turkey offers world-class facial surgery at significantly lower cost — combined with warm Mediterranean recovery conditions.
50–70% Lower Cost
Same SMAS technique, same surgical standards — at a fraction of the price compared to the UK, Germany or the Netherlands.
