Mini Facelift in Op. Dr. Bilgehan Aydın
About the clinic
A mini facelift at the clinic of Op. Dr. Bilgehan Aydın in Istanbul, Turkey, addresses mild to moderate skin laxity for a refreshed appearance. This surgery is performed by Op. Dr. Aydın, an award-winning specialist with over 20 years of experience in facial rejuvenation. The procedure uses small incisions to tighten the mid-face and jawline with a focus on natural-looking results.
The Mini Facelift Procedure
The surgery typically lasts between 3 and 6 hours under general anesthesia. It focuses on the lower third of the face to lift sagging skin and smooth wrinkles. Op. Dr. Bilgehan Aydın creates a personalized surgical plan for every patient based on their facial anatomy. If a patient requires more volume, the doctor can combine the facelift with fat grafting or a neck lift. The primary goal is to restore youthful contours without the longer recovery of a traditional facelift.
Recovery and Results
Patients usually stay in the hospital for 1 night after the procedure. Most people return to their social activities within 7 to 10 days. While complete healing takes several weeks, the scars are carefully hidden within the hairline or around the ears. These marks fade over time and remain concealed in natural skin creases. The results from a mini facelift generally last between 7 and 10 years.

Specialties and Surgical Procedures
The clinic offers a broad range of surgical options for the face and body. Each procedure begins with a full assessment to determine the best technique.
Body Contouring and Liposuction
Body contouring targets localized fat deposits to reshape the silhouette. Sessions typically last 2–5 hours, depending on how many areas are treated. Most patients stay one night in the hospital afterward. The clinic uses specialized recovery protocols to manage swelling.
- VASER Liposuction – uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy fat before removal.
- Lipomatic – vibrating cannula technology for precise fat extraction.
- Laser Lipolysis – laser energy breaks down fat and tightens skin.
- Renuvion J-Plasma – often combined with liposuction to improve skin elasticity.
Patients wear compression garments for 4–6 weeks to ensure smooth results. Most return to daily activities within seven days.
Tummy Tuck and Buttock Aesthetics
Abdominoplasty addresses excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles. The clinic offers full and mini tummy tucks based on the patient's condition. Surgeons often combine these with liposuction for more defined results. The procedure takes 3–5 hours and requires a one-night stay.
Buttock options include the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), which uses fat grafting. This technique transfers a patient's own fat to the buttocks for natural volume. Surgical lifts and reduction procedures are also available for specific needs.
Facial Rejuvenation and Breast Surgery
Facelift procedures aim for lasting rejuvenation by tightening deeper tissues. Surgeons place incisions within the hairline or natural creases to minimize scarring. Most patients return to social activities within 7–10 days as swelling fades. Rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty are also core focuses.
Breast surgery includes augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy (breast lift). Augmentation uses silicone implants or fat transfer. The choice depends on desired volume and existing tissue quality.
Technologies and Equipment
The clinic uses several energy-based platforms to improve surgical outcomes. These tools reduce trauma to surrounding tissues and shorten recovery. Key equipment includes:
- VASER ultrasonic energy system
- Laser Lipolysis platforms
- Lipomatic power-assisted devices
- Renuvion J-Plasma for subdermal skin tightening
The team selects technologies during planning to match each patient's skin type.
