The traditional face lift procedure is performed through an incision that starts in the hair or hairline and above the front of the ear (temporal region).

The skin and fatty tissues are raised as necessary to correct the problem of loose skin or fall. The underlying muscle and connective tissue can be tightened with sutures if the surgeon deems necessary. The skin is pulled up and remove excess skin.

The wound is closed with skin staples and sutures. Some surgeons leave a drain in the wound to drain excess blood after the bandages are placed. There are surgical techniques that go into deeper tissues, rather than under the skin and fat, but the results are similar.
