Surgical lifting of the temporal area of the face
Time is merciless, especially for women who always want to look young and beautiful. Folds on the forehead, wrinkles in the corners of the eyes, drooping eyelids make the look dull and tired. To prolong the youthfulness of the upper area of the face, aesthetic surgery offers temporoplasty (lifting of the temple area). And when combined with filler injections, the effect of freshness and radiance will be even more pronounced.
Temporoplasty - characteristic features of the operation
The first signs of age-related changes usually affect the upper part of the face. Ptosis of the forehead muscles, stretching of the ligaments, a decrease in the volume of fatty tissues under the skin, a decrease in the elasticity of the skin leads to wrinkles, drooping of the eyebrows and corners of the eyes.
Temporal or temporal lifting is a type of plastic correction, the purpose of which is to remove signs of aging from the temporal region, forehead and eyebrows, to make the look open and youthful. This is done by doctors with the help of a surgical tightening of the tissues of the upper third of the face that have shifted as a result of age-related changes (skin, musculo-ligamentous structures, subcutaneous fat).
Temporoplasty, in comparison with the classical circular facelift, is a rather gentle operation. Since, during its implementation, it is necessary to make only a few cuts in the temples in the hair, tighten the superficial SMAS layer and remove excess skin.
This kind of plastic is the safest and most effective method of correction, which, if you focus on the reviews, not in vain won popularity among doctors and their patients.
If you want to rejuvenate your face without surgery, in the Clinics of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery you can do a thread lift, which gives a good long-term effect at an affordable price.
Positive aspects of temporal lobe lift
Why is temporoplasty so good:
- relative low trauma;
- health safety;
- simplicity of execution;
- short duration (about 40 minutes);
- pronounced anti-age effect immediately after surgery;
- short rehabilitation;
- affordable cost.
The manipulation gives the maximum result to patients in whom age-related changes have not yet affected most of the face. The temporal lift will open the eyes, smooth out wrinkles, and accentuate the cheekbones.

How much does a temporal lift cost? The surgeon, who accepts, by appointment at the clinic, patients not only from Poltava, but even from Kiev and other nearby cities of Ukraine, will be able to answer this question.
Actions before surgery and stages of intervention
As a rule, the surgeon will order a standard preoperative examination:
- clinical analyzes of blood and urine;
- coagulogram;
- test for infections, HIV, hepatitis;
- ECG;
- fluorography.
For a week, you need to limit aspirin treatment, smoking, alcohol intake.
The operation, lasting 40-60 minutes, is performed on an empty stomach, using mainly general anesthesia.
How is the procedure going:
- The doctor applies preoperative markings.
- The surgeon makes small incisions in the temples, under the hair.
- Next comes the detachment of the skin and the SMAS layer.
- The tissues are tightened, moved to a new position, and fixed to the temporal fascia.
- The doctor gets rid of the excess skin flap.
- Final - the imposition of external and internal seams, bandages.
Usually, after such manipulations, wearing a special compression mask is shown for a week, which is applied by the doctor in the operating room. Then the patient is transferred to a hospital for 1-3 days.
Risks of temporal lobe lift and rehabilitation
Due to the low tissue trauma during the operation, which is confirmed by the reviews, rehabilitation lasts about 2-3 weeks, sometimes up to a month. After 7-8 days, the patient's stitches are removed. Immediately after the procedure, there is edema on the face (it reaches its peak on days 2-3), bruises and hematomas. The person feels discomfort and pain.
These side effects are normal and go away on their own in a couple of days to a week.
What actions should be said “no” during recovery:
- physical activity and sports;
- saunas, baths, swimming pools;
- alcohol, smoking, junk food;
- natural and artificial tanning.
Complications during manipulation are rare. This can be wound infection, poor tissue healing, bleeding, necrosis. In any case, if disturbing symptoms are found, you should immediately contact the clinic.
