Overview
What is Point Lifting?
A targeted lifting procedure for the areas of facial sagging that concern you, with a technique tailored to each individual.
It can provide stronger lifting than a thread lift while reducing the surgical burden of a full facelift.
Small incisions and limited scarring can support an earlier return to daily activities.
Recovery time and results vary by individual.

Recovery & care
Precautions After Rejuvenation / Lifting Surgery
Follow your surgical team’s individual instructions. Recovery and follow-up schedules vary.
Protect skin with reduced sensation
Temporary loss of skin sensation may increase the risk of burns from hot or cold compresses; avoid using them.
Sleeping position and activity
For one month after surgery, sleep on your back and avoid lying on your side or face down. Avoid strenuous exercise and facial massage for at least one month.
Care while sutures remain
If sutures are present, keep the surgical area dry and clean until removal. After 3 days, shampooing is possible. Preferably visit a salon and ask for gentle washing, avoiding the sutures.
Bleeding, infection, inflammation, bruising, swelling and pain may occur. Satisfaction and outcomes vary between individuals.
This is an initial recovery estimate, not a guarantee of complete healing. Your recovery and return to activities depend on the procedure and your condition; follow your surgical team’s instructions.
Treatment suitability, recovery and results vary by individual. Your doctor will explain the expected benefits, limitations and possible risks.
