Face Lift - Preparation

A face lift constitutes a complex procedure which should be preceded by a comprehensive consultation session. This usually includes a comprehensive analysis of your face in order to determine the most appropriate operational method for your particular situation.¹⁰
In addition, you should undergo a general medical examination including laboratory examinations, blood pressure measurements, and an ECG (electrocardiogram) analysis.³
Smoking interferes with wound healing and should be discontinued at least 4 weeks prior to the procedure. 14 days before the operation, you should stop taking any anticoagulant pain relievers. Because the operation leaves scars behind, it may be wise to let your hair grow longer in order to conceal these.¹

Please speak about these and further preparatory measures explicitly with your doctor.
