A scarring result from surgery is common for face lifts. These scars will not be noticeable and will look great on your face. There are many options for treating them. There are many options available, including Botox, fillers and Botox. A face lift is an excellent way to improve your facial appearance and enhance your self-confidence.
Incisions in the ear
The incisions used for neck or face lifts are often located posteriorly behind the ears, at the occipital hairline. These scars will not be visible unless they are directly viewed. Additionally, these scars aren't visible in routine close up photographs of the ear.
For the best results and scarring, it is important to place the incisions for the facelift. Incisions for facelifts are traditionally placed behind the ear. The scars from this location are often the most prominent, albeit less noticeable. To avoid these unsightly scars, Dr. Jacono uses a new technique in which the incision is hidden behind the tragus cartilage inside the ear canal. This technique allows Dr. Jacono to conceal his incision and reduce the signs of ageing.
Placement of stitches
The location of stitches for facelift scars will vary depending on the size, shape and length of the wound. The center of the wound is where the first stitch should go. Following this, a second stitch is placed on each side of the first one. To close the wound, bisecting stitches can be used. However, the first two must not overlap.
Most sutures used in facelift surgery are very fine, which minimizes scarring. The sutures are pulled tight to the fat and underlying muscles. This pull on the skin can pull the stitches. A suture will not cause permanent damage in a healthy body. However, it is possible for the body to rebuild skin cells and create connective tissue.
Inconspicuousness and scarcity
Patients often ask about the conspicuousness of facial lift scars. Patients desire a more natural appearance of their jawline and neckline. They don't want visible marks. Though all incisions may leave scarring, properly executed and planned surgeries will make them as discreet as possible. The face lift involves lengthy incisions around hairline and ears. The best incision placement can give patients a natural appearance, which is what they want.
Scars can appear bright and raised when they are new, which can make it difficult to see for a few weeks. Most scars will fade in time and, in some cases, may disappear completely. Every individual heals at his or her own pace. There is no one standard time that scarring will appear.
Treatments available
The results of a facelift can vary widely. The procedure can reduce deep wrinkles, jowls and skin laxity. It tightens the facial muscles and removes excess fat. For patients who are concerned about the appearance of aging around their eyes and eyebrows, a forehead lift can be performed.
To reduce scarring from your facelift, silicone sheeting is a good option. Silicone sheeting is available over the counter and at your local grocery. This type of sheeting can increase circulation and reduce adhesions. It promotes collagen production and supports healthy healing of the incisions. But silicone sheeting should be worn for at least three months.
