Sutures for Lower Facelift and Neck Lift The plastic surgeon I am considering for a lower facelift and neck lift indicates he uses a rolling sutures around the ear and behind the tragus. Is this the typical way sutures are done for same surgery, or isn't it? Or are the fine, tiny sutures some doctors do, produce a more invisible suture line? This piece of the surgery is extremely important to me. I need to find out of this is the norm. Thanks

A: Buried sutures make better scars generally

Any time an incision can be closed with buried, or hidden sutures, the risk of visible suture marks is dramatically diminished. Luckily the majority of a facelift incision is hidden from view anyway.

Is It Better to Have Filler First Before Lower Face Lift? I'm considering Lower Face Lift but I would like to try fillers first. I am 49 years old.

A: Filler before lower facelift

I have seen it done both ways and the outcome has been outstanding but I prefer to have the surgery done first and then place fillers second. Often, less filler is needed especially along the jawline and the creases in the corners of the mouth. Consult your facial plastic surgeon for his or her preferences.
