Thank you very much for yourquestion. While the thickness of each patient’s skin can vary, this will rarelyimpact their ability to have a facelift or neck lift. I recommend scheduling aconsultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, experienced with faceliftprocedures. At the time of the consultation, the surgeon will carefully examinethe quality of your tissues, determining the best procedure(s) to achieve youraesthetic goals.
Your skin quality can affect the results and long term outcome of a facelift, however, it really should not be a factor in being a candidate for a facelift. In all skin types, the facelift surgeon needs to take care of the skin and raise a flap thats not too thin. Thats part of the surgery and surgeon skills, irrespective of the skin type.
