Normally, face lift surgery incisions begin from the hairline and then trace a line down to the front ear surrounding the earlobe and ends at the back of the ear. After that, the skin is carefully lifted to eradicate the excess fats, while at the same time making the muscles and tissues tighter. This will be followed by tightly pulling the skin and cutting the excess skin away. Once all of these are finished, the incision will then be closed with the use of fine stitches and staples. The entire procedure generally takes about 2-5 hours. You undergo a general anesthetic and stay two nights in hospital.
