What is suture care after mini face lift?

Typically, an antibiotic ointment is recommended on all the incisions until after they heal whereupon a scar cream with silicone gel and gentle massage is recommended. 

With this
#cosmeticsurgery patients usually feel some tightness, firmness under the skin,
and moderate swelling & bruising during the first week. Most patients having
a modified #facelift feel comfortable being out in public shortly thereafter,
sometimes after a few days. It’s best to allow one to two weeks for healing
from your #plasticsurgery. We use dissolving incisions that do not need to be
removed. They are cleaned three times a day



WHAT ARE
THE SCARS LIKE?



When you
have a #facelift, well placed incisions which are well planned and hidden, along
with lifting without tension will help #minilifts, #litelifts and other
#facelifts heal when performing these types of #cosmeticsurgeries.
Limited scar incision and proper care after
sugery help. Topical scar creams and laser as needed can all help create
incisions that are hard to see.

Typically our patients are asked to cleanse their incision lines with a half peroxide/half water mixture daily for the first week after surgery.  This will help to eliminate any crusting and keep the incision lines clean.  Patients will then coat their incision lines with an antibiotic ointment which will provide a moist environment for optimal wound healing.  Every surgeon is different with regards to postoperative care, and I would suggest you discuss specific care with your operating surgeon.  Good Luck.
