62 year old male considering a facelift. After two consultations I am concerned about the position of beard post surgery. One surgeon places the scars right in the crease at the ear. When I asked about beard growth post surgery he told me one session of laser hair removal would be sufficient. However, it seems that is not true, particularly as my beard has grey hairs. The second surgeon offered two options: right next to the ear and slightly in front of the ear in natural creases of the skin.

Answer: Male facelift incisions There is not a standard incision for a male facelift. There are other factors to consider, such as beard pattern, the vector of tissues and skin repositioning, etc. Seek out an experienced and talented facelift surgeon with special expertise in male facelifts. Only an in person evaluation can determine the best apprach. It is paramount that a male facelift results create a significant rejuvenating effect, yet in a very natural way.

Answer: Best position for scars in male facelift. The position of scars in the male facelift can either run in front of the ear so that the beard is only advanced up to the natural crease that runs in front of the ear or it can be placed on top of the tragus. The incision in front of the ear blends exceptionally well and leaves the beard off of the tragus of the ear. The incision which brings the facial skin on top of the tragus requiresthe hair follicles be trimmed or laser done to the hair follicles to eliminate them but this may require several treatments. If done correctly the incision in front of the year is in conspicuous. Best wishes.
