I thought I read a few years ago about someone in LA doing small targeted incisions in the scalp that pulled at strategic places and did not have any visible scars even around the ear. It's the one thing keeping me from doing it. My scars are pink keloid and take ages to disappear

Answer: What is the least scarring facelift? The least scarring facelift is the one done by an experienced and detailed surgeon. Although the full incisions in front and around the ear are necessary, these can be made to hide very well. You might be thinking of endoscopic or "thread lifts". Endoscopic lifts only address the brows. Thread lifts have a high incidence of string rupture and future asymmetry.

Answer: Facelift scarring Any facelift that addresses the lower face and neck requires incisions around the ears. However, well placed and well closed incisions should result in scarring that is very inconspicuous and minimally visible. Viewing before and after photos and meeting other facelift patients of your chosen surgeon should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. Good luck!
