Most of the facelift surgery pictures I have seen have the same head shape in before and after pictures, however some look very different. What can be the reason for the altered head shape in facelift surgery and what surgery type is most likely to alter it?

Answer: Can head shape alter in facelift surgery? Hello. Thank you for your question. The shape of the head is determined by the bones that make up the skull. These bones are not altered during facelift surgery. Therefore, the shape of the head should not change with a facelift. However, the shape of the face is altered in a positive way with facelift surgery by repositioning the soft tissues of the face over the underlying facial skeleton to create a more youthful appearance.

Answer: Change in face shape after facelift surgery As we age, our faces change from a youthful heart shape to an older square shape. A facelift will restore the youthful heart shape of your face. I think that is what you are referring to. There should be no change in the head- which I assume is the top of the face you are referring to
