About this treatment
The SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) facelift is the surgical gold standard for addressing age-related descent of facial tissue — jowling, deepening nasolabial folds, midface volume loss, and neck laxity.

BODY klinika's plastic surgeons emphasise that a facelift should preserve natural appearance and facial expression — a key differentiator from techniques focused solely on skin tightening. The incisions follow the hairline and natural facial contours to remain as inconspicuous as possible. Excess skin is carefully resected after the deeper SMAS work, and the skin is re-draped without tension, which minimises scar widening and distortion over time.
For patients with neck skin laxity and platysmal banding (the vertical cords visible in the neck), the procedure can include a platysmaplasty to repair the platysma muscle, creating a defined jawline and neck angle.
