The table outlining the Steps in Facial Surgery apply to facelifts with a few unique differences. Facelift surgery is tailored to specific needs, but the basic steps are as follows:
The incision, although always around the ear, will vary according to the problems to be corrected, the quality of the skin and the technique used. If an endoscope is used then the incision is not as long because the surgeon does not have to draw back the skin to see what he or she is doing. The endoscope allows the surgeon to view the area being treated through a lighted microscope housed within a narrow cannula (round rigid or flexible tube). This is accompanied by surgical tools and/or a laser fiber passed in or along the same cannula. To minimize trauma during the procedure and to shorten the healing time endoscopic face lifts are becoming more and more popular. They also offers the advantage of an unmarked canvas (the facial skin) for additional procedures such as laser resurfacing and laser removal of blood vessels or pigment spots. As these procedures, especially laser surfacing, can cause a lot of swelling an extensive, tight incision line may be compromised.
