Scars following facelift are a regular worry.
Can you see the facelift scar?
The evidence is that properly ‘layered’ facelift surgery puts no tension on the skin and the scars are ‘invisible’.
What we want from our facelifts is to restore ‘shape’ and ‘definition’. This comes from elevating the facial fat - the key to shape and the reflection of youthful light. Facelift surgeons debate endlessly about how this is done best; however all agree that the skin closure is tension - free.
Jonathan lifts and shapes the face on the ‘deep plane’ layer III of the face, by releasing the restricting ligaments in layer IV.
This elevates the skin often by many centimetres - and that excess skin is easily removed, without tension. Jonathan insets that skin in natural creases - and without tension the scars are soft, supple, stable and slim.
Maybe that’s why so many of our referrals are from hairdressers…
