Temporal Lift in Turkey

Key information

What is a temporal lift?

A temporal lift is a facial aesthetic procedure intended to subtly lift the outer brow and temple area, supporting a refreshed, gently open appearance to the upper face. Suitability is determined by clinical evaluation.

What concerns can it address?

It may suit those who feel the outer brow and temple area has descended or looks tired, giving a subtly heavier upper face. It is intended as a refinement rather than a dramatic change.

Who may consider it?

Adults who wish to refine the outer brow and temple area may consider it, subject to clinical assessment of whether the approach is appropriate for their anatomy.

How is it planned and performed?

The approach is individualized and planned by your surgeon after assessing the upper face as a whole. It is sometimes considered together with other facial procedures to support balance, and the technique is explained during consultation.

What are the potential benefits?

A subtle, refreshed appearance in the outer brow and temple area, in harmony with the rest of the face. Individual results vary.

What are the limitations?

Results are subtle by design, develop over time and cannot be guaranteed. Surgery works within your existing anatomy.

What is recovery like?

Recovery is individual and generally involves some swelling that settles over the following weeks. You receive specific aftercare and follow-up guidance.

When do results become apparent?

Facial aesthetic results appear gradually as swelling settles over the following weeks, with the refined, settled appearance developing over the months that follow. Your surgeon explains the likely timeline for your procedure.

What are the possible risks and limitations?

Any surgery carries risks, including those related to anaesthesia, bleeding, infection, prolonged swelling, asymmetry and results that may differ from expectations. Surgery also works within the limits of your existing anatomy and cannot replicate another person’s nose. Some concerns take time to settle and, in a minority of cases, further treatment may be considered. Your surgeon explains the risks relevant to your situation before any decision is made.

Why does individual assessment matter?

No two noses — or faces — are the same, and general information can never replace a personal evaluation. Factors such as skin thickness, cartilage strength, previous surgery, breathing and your own goals all influence what is appropriate and realistic. This is why nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and why a plan is only confirmed after an in-person examination.

What should I discuss with the medical team?

Share what specifically bothers you, any photographs of the appearance you have in mind, your full medical history, any previous nasal surgery or injury, breathing difficulties, allergies and current medication. It is equally important to discuss your expectations openly, so the team can explain what is realistically achievable for your anatomy before any decision is made.

What does the consultation involve?

Your journey begins with a preliminary online assessment, where you share photographs and describe what you would like to change. This first step is informative and non-binding. A final treatment plan is confirmed only after an in-person clinical examination in Antalya, where your nasal anatomy, skin, breathing, general health and personal goals are assessed together and the recommended approach is explained to you.

How does this work for international patients?

Our patient coordinator helps organize the timing of your visit, airport transfer, accommodation and appointments, so the medical and travel sides are handled together. You receive guidance before you travel, in-person support throughout your stay in Antalya, and structured remote follow-up once you return home. Specific timings are always confirmed as part of your individual plan.
