Liquid Facelift at Fethiye

As we age, gradual loss of facial volume, collagen breakdown and the effect of gravity can lead to sagging cheeks, hollow under‑eyes, deeper nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jowling, and an overall tired appearance. For many people, a full surgical facelift may feel too invasive — with longer downtime, higher cost, and significant recovery.

That’s where a liquid facelift offers an attractive alternative. At Fethiye Medical Aesthetics Clinic, under the expert hands of Dr. Tuncay Dagel, our liquid facelift program is designed to restore youthful fullness, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours — all without surgery. With dermal fillers (and where appropriate, neuromodulators) we rejuvenate your face in a natural, subtle, and refreshed way, often within a single session.

Whether you’re noticing early signs of facial aging or you want to refresh your look without downtime — a liquid facelift could be the ideal solution.

What Is a Liquid Facelift?

A liquid facelift is a non‑surgical cosmetic procedure where our clinician injects dermal fillers — and sometimes neuromodulators — into strategic areas of the face to restore lost volume, smooth lines, and re‑define facial contours.

Unlike a traditional surgical facelift, there are no incisions, no general anesthesia, and no skin cutting or suturing — which means a much simpler, safer, and faster approach.

Typical target areas include: cheeks, cheekbones, under‑eye hollows, temples, jawline, chin, nasolabial folds (nose-to-mouth lines), marionette lines (mouth-to-chin), and sometimes forehead or perioral wrinkles.

Benefits of a Liquid Facelift

A liquid facelift offers several important advantages:

  • Non‑Surgical & Minimally Invasive — No cutting of skin, no general anesthesia.

  • Quick Procedure & Minimal Downtime — Treatments typically take around 20–45 minutes, and you can usually return to daily life soon after.

  • Immediate or Rapid Results — Many effects (volume restoration, smoothing) are visible right after treatment.

  • Customizable & Natural‑Looking — Areas and amounts can be tailored to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals for a subtle, refreshed appearance.

  • Volume Restoration & Contour Enhancement — Helps replenish volume loss (cheeks, under‑eyes), smooth deep lines, and re‑shape features (jawline, chin) without altering expressions unnaturally.

  • Lower Cost & Risk than Surgery — Because there’s no operating room, general anesthesia, or surgical team required, a liquid facelift tends to be more cost‑effective and carries fewer risks.

What Happens During the Procedure?

  • Consultation & Assessment
    During your first visit, Dr. Dagel evaluates your face, listens to your aesthetic concerns and goals, and proposes a personalized treatment plan — including which areas to treat, what types of filler or neuromodulator to use, and an estimated volume.
  • Preparation & Numbing
    A topical numbing agent (or local anesthetic) is applied to ensure comfort during injections. Your face is cleansed and marked for precise injection placement.
  • Injection of Fillers (± Neuromodulators)
    Dermal fillers are carefully injected using a needle or cannula into predetermined facial areas — such as cheeks, under‑eyes, temples, jawline, nasolabial folds — depending on your needs. Sometimes neuromodulators (e.g. for dynamic wrinkles) are added for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
  • Molding & Final Adjustment
    After injection, the provider may gently massage or mold the treated areas to ensure the filler settles evenly and achieves a natural contour.
  • Post‑Procedure Care
    Mild swelling, redness, tenderness or bruising at injection sites is common but usually temporary. Many people return to their normal activities within 24–48 hours.

How Long Do Results Last — and Maintenance

  • Depending on the type of filler used (e.g. hyaluronic acid, poly‑L‑lactic acid, calcium hydroxyapatite), the effects of a liquid facelift typically last 8 to 18 months, sometimes up to 2 years with longer‑lasting fillers.
  • Because the body gradually metabolizes the fillers and natural aging continues, maintenance treatments are usually required to sustain results.
  • One advantage: some fillers (especially hyaluronic acid) can be reversed if desired — offering flexibility and control over your appearance.

Limitations & When a Surgical Facelift May Be Better

While a liquid facelift can deliver impressive rejuvenation for many, it has some limitations:

  • Subtle, Not Dramatic: Because fillers volumize rather than physically lift or remove excess skin, the changes are more subtle than with a surgical facelift.
  • Not Ideal for Severe Skin Laxity: If there’s substantial sagging, deep jowls, or loose skin — especially around the neck or jawline — a surgical facelift may still be the more effective solution.
  • Temporary Results & Maintenance: Results fade over time, so ongoing treatments are needed to preserve the look.
  • Risk of Overfilling or “Puffy” Look: Overuse of filler (or too frequent top‑ups) can lead to unnatural fullness or distortion of facial features.

Learn how a liquid facelift works, which areas can be treated, expected results, recovery time, longevity of results, risks, and candidacy. Dr. Tuncay Dagel at Fethiye Medical Aesthetics Clinic provides expert guidance to help you achieve a natural, youthful look safely and effectively.

A liquid facelift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses dermal fillers (and sometimes neuromodulators like Botox) to restore facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. It provides rejuvenation without surgery, incisions, or long recovery times.

Unlike a surgical facelift, which involves incisions, skin tightening, and general anesthesia, a liquid facelift uses injectables to achieve a refreshed, youthful appearance. It is less invasive, has minimal downtime, and results are visible almost immediately.

Ideal candidates are adults with mild to moderate facial aging, including volume loss, early wrinkles, or slight sagging. People seeking subtle rejuvenation without surgery often choose this treatment. Severe sagging or excess skin may require a surgical facelift.

Common areas include:

  • Cheeks and cheekbones

  • Under-eye hollows

  • Temples

  • Jawline and chin

  • Nasolabial folds (nose-to-mouth lines)

  • Marionette lines (mouth-to-chin)

  • Sometimes forehead or perioral wrinkles

Treatment usually takes 20–45 minutes, depending on the areas being treated and the amount of filler used.

Discomfort is minimal. A topical anesthetic or local numbing agent is applied before injections. Most patients experience only slight pressure or tingling. Mild swelling or bruising afterward is common but temporary.

Many results, such as volume restoration and wrinkle smoothing, are visible immediately. Full settling of fillers may take a few days, giving a natural and balanced look.

Results vary based on filler type, treated areas, and individual metabolism. Typically, results last 8 to 18 months, sometimes up to 2 years. Touch-ups are recommended to maintain the effect.

Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can often be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if adjustments are needed, providing flexibility and control over your appearance.

Temporary side effects include mild swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising at injection sites. Rarely, lumps, asymmetry, or vascular complications may occur. Choosing a qualified and experienced injector significantly reduces risk.

Maintenance depends on filler type, how your body metabolizes it, and your desired look. Typically, treatments are repeated every 8–18 months to preserve results.

Yes. Liquid facelifts are often combined with neuromodulators, skin boosters, or laser treatments to enhance results, treat dynamic wrinkles, or improve skin quality.

Recovery is minimal. Most patients resume normal activities immediately or within 24 hours. Swelling or bruising may last a few days.
