Facelift surgery arranged through Royal Medical Prague is matched with Dr. Radek Lhotsky — rated among Europe's top facelift surgeons — and Dr. Lucie Kalinova, with two technique tiers available. The SMAS facelift repositions the Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System layer beneath the skin, producing results that last 10–15 years and addressing mid-face sagging, jowls, and neck laxity in a single procedure. The deeper Deep Plane technique works below the SMAS, lifting the face from its deep anatomical attachments for more dramatic correction in patients with significant gravitational change. Both are performed under general anaesthesia with one night of inpatient monitoring. Royal Medical's all-inclusive coordination covers pre-departure planning, surgeon consultation, airport transfer, and post-operative follow-up.
