Doctors will demand smokers to stop more or less a week ahead the surgery, and avoid the vice for a few weeks after the surgical operationsince smoking meddles with flow of blood to the skin. You also will be asked to avoid pills that will promotes hemorrhage, such as aspirin.

The procedure can be performed in a surgeon's office,in a health facility or in an infirmary. Cosmetic surgeons normally provide a local anesthesia to aid in avoiding patients feeling pain during the process but they're typically awake. Some surgeons use general anesthesia.

When performing a normal facelift, a surgeon will start to make an incision around your hairline and curving round the earlobe, then ending at the bottom of the hairline. He will then separate your skin from the fat and muscle beneath. The cosmetic surgeon may then suction out the fat through liposuction. Or he can trim the excessive fat to give your face a fresh, healthy look.

Slightly below the skin is a tissue layer called the superficial musculoaponeurotic system. The doctor will fold it in order to tighten it, pulling the layer back over itself. This can lift the cheeks, firm the neck and define your jawline. Any excess skin is removed employing a laser or a surgical knife. The surgical incision will then be closed with sutures or stitches.

A facelift surgery can last 2 to 4 hours, dependent on the quantity of procedures being performed and the extent of tissue and muscle work necessary.
