Can anyone tell me exactly where the scars are positioned for mid facelift and necklift? Many thanks
Answer: Scars Mid facelift scars can be placed in the temporal hairline or underneath the lower eyelids- so called "sub ciliary". There are a range of lower face and neck lift scars. The so called "short scar" facelift begins at the junction of the hair bearing and non- hair bearing skin in front of the ear and extends in-front of the ear down towards the ear lobe. The so called "long scar" facelift is a continuation of the short scar, extending underneath the ear lobe, behind the ear and into the occipital hairline. This gives access to the neck.

Answer: Facelift Thanks for the question. In the scalp area 2 cm incisions are made symmetrically on both sides, mid-face tissues are freed. Reaching the cheek oil and moved up and out as young ages. The mid-face area rejuvenates, the gutters on the rim disappear. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Scars for lower facelift Thank you for your question. It will aldepend on your surgeons technique to where the scars are located. The scars I produce would start just before the hair line (not entering the hair), in the crease of the ear and around the back behind the earlobe. The scars are hidden nicely, and I also use dissolvable stitches underneath the skin, ensuring neat incisions, leaving patients with an invisible scar. Make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve. Please make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve. Ask to see before and after pictures of their past patients so you can see the placement of the incision and how they have healed. All The Best.

Answer: Scars Placement for Lower Facelift The true answer here is: It depends upon the technique your individual surgeon uses – there isn’t one standardized way of doing these procedures, so the suture line placement varies a bit from surgeon-to-surgeon. Depending on the patients anatomy and tragal shape and position, I personally place sutures in the hairline in front of the top of the ear (temple area), then down towards the tragus, around the ear lobe (in the crease where the ear lobe meets the cheek), then behind the ear in the crease, and along the hairline behind the ears. I also place a small suture line just under the chin. If scars concern you, ask a surgeon to show you photos of patients whose suture lines haven’t healed yet, so you can understand his/her suture line placement. I have a few in my gallery here, which may be useful for your reference of healing timelines.

Answer: MACS lift scars Hi. The scars for the MACS lift are the same if the midface is included or not. The majority of the time I recommend to include the midface as in most patients it looks aesthetically pleasing. The scars are hidden in the temple hair, around the creases in front of the ear and then behind. They are imperceptible in most patients. Regards
