Fortunately, there are many minimally and non-invasive treatments you can undergo after a facelift to restore an even and glowing skin tone and texture. Some skin treatments can be done at the time of a facelift, some before the facelift, and some after the facelift. Your plastic surgeon will […]

Facelift incisions start in the hairline near the temples and continue behind the ears. This way, the resulting scars can be hidden in the hairline and the natural creases of the ear—which is a good thing considering that your face is always on display, and no one wants to highlight the visible proof of their facelift surgery.

So, how will this receding hairline affect […]
