FAQ

Common questions about international facial rejuvenation surgery, recovery, travel support, payment, aftercare and safety. Answers are provided for consultation reference and do not replace a medical examination.

How long is the recovery period?

Swelling usually fades in 10-15 days. Normal light activities can gradually resume after initial recovery, while stable effect comes in 3 to 6 months. Full healing can continue for several months.

Is a facelift painful after surgery?

A deep face lift is performed under anesthesia. After surgery, most patients report tightness, swelling and mild discomfort rather than severe pain. Pain control and medication guidance are provided during recovery.

How long do facelift results last?

Deep-plane and high-SMAS facelift results often last longer than superficial tightening. Aging continues naturally, but many patients maintain visible improvement for years depending on skin quality, lifestyle and anatomy.

What is the price range for the surgery?

Pricing depends on technique and scope, such as lower face lift, neck lift, eyelid revision, facial fat grafting or combined treatments.

The final quote is confirmed after medical assessment, treatment design and hospital arrangements.

How can I make an appointment?

You can book a remote consultation by submitting photos, surgical history and target concerns. The coordinator will arrange preliminary evaluation, doctor matching, scheduling and travel planning.

How soon after surgery can I return to my country?

Most international patients stay 10 to 15 days for early recovery, dressing checks and suture removal. The actual return date depends on doctor clearance and flight suitability.

Are there risks such as complications, scarring and facial stiffness?

All surgery has risks. Professional planning, qualified doctors, sterile operating conditions, anesthesia management and postoperative follow-up are used to reduce risk. Scar and stiffness recovery varies by individual healing.

Is the visa duration enough for surgery and recovery?

Most patients should reserve enough time for arrival, consultation, surgery, early recovery and stitch removal. The team can help estimate itinerary length before you book flights.

How to prevent scar hyperplasia?
  1. Keep wounds clean and dry.
  2. Avoid pulling, rubbing and heavy facial expressions early.
  3. Use scar care products only as instructed.
  4. Avoid alcohol, spicy foods and smoking during recovery.
  5. Report redness, itching or thickening to the care team.
How do I get remote consultation and plan customized after returning home?

Remote follow-up is provided through photos, video consultation and report review. The team can adjust home care, medication reminders and rehabilitation suggestions according to recovery status.

How long does it take to see the final stable result?

Initial improvement is visible after swelling improves. The face continues to soften and settle over months, with stable effect commonly assessed around 3 to 6 months.

Is the surgery safe and legal?

Procedures should be performed by qualified doctors in approved medical facilities. The service process includes qualification review, hospital coordination, informed consent and medical record support.

Doctor qualifications, overseas work experience and international aesthetic style

The team focuses on doctor background, clinical case experience, aesthetic communication and surgery planning. Patients should confirm the operating doctor, technique, anesthesia plan and safety system before surgery.

How many times can I come back for revision?

Revision planning depends on anatomy, previous surgery, tissue condition and healing. A detailed consultation is required before deciding whether revision is suitable.

Am I suitable for the surgery?

Suitable candidates usually have facial laxity, sagging or aging concerns and are in acceptable health. Patients with uncontrolled disease, unrealistic expectations or unsuitable anatomy may need alternative plans.

What is the surgical project process?
  1. Online consultation and case review.
  2. Personalized plan and quotation.
  3. Travel, visa and appointment coordination.
  4. Onsite doctor consultation and examination.
  5. Surgery and inpatient recovery.
  6. Discharge, return trip and remote follow-up.
How long does the surgery take?

Most facial rejuvenation surgery takes several hours. Combined surgery and complex revision can take longer. The exact time depends on the selected procedure and doctor plan.

Is the surgery high success rate?

Success depends on surgical indication, doctor experience, anatomy, recovery cooperation and realistic expectations. The team emphasizes proper case selection and full communication before surgery.

How much does the surgery cost?

The price can be confirmed only after consultation and scope evaluation. Combined procedures, revision surgery and hospital arrangements may affect final cost.

Will there be aftereffects when getting old?

Facelift surgery does not stop natural aging. Patients may continue to age after surgery, but structural repositioning can provide a more refreshed baseline. Later maintenance depends on lifestyle and skin care.

Who is not suitable for this surgery?

People with uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, severe heart disease, active infection, coagulation problems, pregnancy or unrealistic expectations may not be suitable until risks are controlled.

How many days do I need to stay in hospital after surgery?

Hospital stay varies by procedure and recovery. Many patients need close observation during the early postoperative stage and then continue recovery in a nearby hotel or accommodation.

What preparations are needed before surgery?

Prepare clear photos, medical history, medication list, allergy history, prior surgery records, passport and travel information. Follow medical instructions about fasting, medication and smoking or alcohol restrictions.

Is it painful during recovery?

Recovery is usually described as tightness, swelling and pressure rather than sharp pain. Pain medicine and follow-up guidance are provided when needed.

Will I age faster or delay aging?

A facelift does not stop aging. It can reposition tissues and improve visible sagging, but anti-aging maintenance and healthy habits remain important.

How should I eat after surgery?

Choose soft, mild food and avoid alcohol, seafood, beef, mutton, hot pot and irritating foods during early recovery or as instructed by the doctor.

Can sensitive skin, scar constitution, pregnant or menstruating women do it?

Sensitive skin and scar tendency require doctor evaluation. Surgery is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Menstruation timing should be discussed during scheduling.

Will it affect facial expression and daily function?

Temporary tightness, numbness or expression stiffness may occur during recovery. Persistent functional changes are uncommon but must be evaluated promptly if they occur.

Will the chief surgeon operate personally instead of assistants?

The operating doctor should be confirmed before surgery. Assistant support may be involved, but the surgical plan and main operation should be clearly explained during consultation.

Need a patient plan?
