Concerned about scars showing after facelift, mainly the ones behind ears. How ,uch can I actually expect them to fade ? I'm thinking I may eventually go bald and wanted the option to shave my head but not if I have 2 lines that are going to be visible. Would the scars be hidden at a "buzz cut" length or would they still be visible ? Thanks
Answer: Short Hair OK After Face Lift If you plan on changing your hairstyle and would consider shaving your head, your surgeon needs to design your incisions with this in mind. In your situation, I would only have the incision on the back of your ears, and I would not place incisions that go back into your hairline. I hope this helps.

Answer: Facelift Scars Thank you for your question. It does depend on every surgeons incisions, however most will hide in the crease of your ear and around (my scar doesn't go into the hairline therefore being more hidden and reframes from any hair loss caused by the scar). Patients do heal differently however typically scars maybe red for the first three months however by six months the scars have normally turned skin colour therefore with minimal visibility, if not none at all. 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. All The Best

Answer: Depends I would not plan on a buzz cut after a facelift as the incisions will be visible. However you can discuss this with your plastic surgeon to see if he can modify the incision to be better hidden with your desired hairstyle.

Answer: Facelift Incisions and Hair Facelift incisions can be variable depending on the surgeon and the amount of laxity/sagging that you may have. However, most experienced facelift surgeons will hide your incisions in and around your ears and into the scalp. They will also come up high, behind the ear, to have a minimal transition zone behind your ear to the scalp. This allows the incisions to heal very nicely and the scars to be imperceptible, even in men with very short hair. It is important to note that people will heal differently and while most people have minimal visibility, there are very rare exceptions.

Answer: Hair scar options A skill and experience doctor can perform a surgery that can be almost invisible to the naked eye. Technique is important as to where and how to place the incision. Careful analysis of the patient hair pattern, color and texture as well as amount of extra skin will help to determine where to place the incisions
