Sutures, stitches and staples for lower Facelift?

Thanks for sharing.  For a lower facelift and necklift i use fine sutures to close the wound. Staples are usually used to close incisions in the scalp such as a browlift incision.  I use some absorbing and some non absorbing sutures. I close the skin in two laser to decrease wound tension and get the best result.  Many things come into play when achieving the best results.  Experience matters so select a board certified facelift facial plastic surgeon who has performed many facelifts. 

Hi.  It depends exactly where your scar is going to be placed.  If the scar is completely within the hairline then there is an advantage to staples as they are not circumferential and therefore cause less trauma to the hair follicles.  I make my incision just inside the temporal hairline and prefer to use sutures in this circumstances.  it is important that there is minimal tension on the skin at the end and this is done by suspending the SMAS layer.  Regards
