I read an interesting article that spoke of long term damage to skin that has been cut and pulled as part of a facelift. It states that skin will get thinner and will never regain or increase its thickness given that the skin is lifted away from underlying layers in order to tighten the underlying fascia and muscles. Especially so if more than one surgery. It makes common sense that skin may not re-attach itself to underlying tissues like it was before surgery.

Answer: No it does not! If properly done multiple facelifts do not do this. In more than 30 years of doing facelifts and seeing my patients over that period of time, there is no change even with multiple lifts on actresses who tend to have more lifts than the average person.

Answer: Skin Remains Healthy After Facelift There is no evidence that skin will not attach to the underlying deep tissues after a facelift and then become less healthy. The blood supply through growth of new capillaries is excellent in the face and nourishment for the skin is not an issue. If anything it gets more nourishment from the growth of new blood vessels.
