Repositioning of cheek and under-eye area

Subperiosteal Midface Lift (Cheek Lift Surgery)

The midface area is one of the most sensitive areas to aging. With age, cheeks sag downward, under-eye area develops hollows and tired appearance, and nasolabial folds deepen. These changes give the person an older, tired, and unhappy expression than they actually are.

What is Subperiosteal Midface Lift?

Subperiosteal midface lift is an advanced surgical technique that reaches the deep layers of the midface. In this method, cheek, under-eye, and midface tissues are released from the periosteum (bone membrane) and repositioned upward along the central axis. Thus, cheek sagging is corrected, under-eye hollows are eliminated, and nasolabial folds are significantly reduced.

Surgical Technique

The surgery is performed through small incisions hidden within the scalp. Using an endoscopic camera, the surgeon reaches the deep midface tissues and repositions them upward. It can be combined with classic facelift surgery or eyelid surgery. This provides more balanced and comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Preoperative Evaluation

Preliminary consultation is of great importance for a successful operation. During the evaluation at the clinic of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Specialist Dr. Mahmut Ulvi Kayalı in Antalya:

  • Midface anatomy and degree of cheek tissue sagging,
  • Under-eye hollowing and depth of nasolabial folds,
  • Skin structure and elasticity,
  • Patient's aesthetic expectations are examined in detail.

Post-Surgery Scars and Recovery

  • Since incisions are hidden within the scalp, no visible scar remains.
  • Swelling and bruising may occur in the first days, these usually decrease within 1-2 weeks.
  • Patients mostly return to daily life after 1 week.
  • Within 3-6 months, tissues completely adapt to their new position and results appear naturally.

Conclusion

Subperiosteal midface lift is a modern facial rejuvenation method that anatomically lifts the midface upward. It naturally and permanently corrects cheek sagging, under-eye hollows, and deepened nasolabial folds.
