Cosmetic facelift surgery can last about 20 to 60 minutes at a time, but it depends on the difficulty of the facelift and the degree of skin laxity. The looser the skin, the more difficult the facelift is, so the operation time It will be extended appropriately. The main method of facelift is to pull the skin taut to behind the ears, then use a scalpel to remove the excess skin, and then use sutures to sew the two layers of skin together to achieve a tight state. After a major facelift, do not touch it with your hands in the early stages to avoid feeling tight.

Precautions for cosmetic facelift surgery:

1. Since the scope of facelift surgery is different, it is necessary to observe whether there is hematoma after the operation. If hematoma occurs, the cause of the hematoma should be identified. If it is only bleeding from the wound, a pressure bandage can be used to apply local compression to stop bleeding. If arterial bleeding occurs, the bleeding should be stopped as soon as possible.

2． Wound care needs to be strengthened to avoid wound infection.

3. Do not put pressure on the wound when resting. Sleep on your back to reduce pressure on the wound.

4. Movements such as talking and chewing need to be reduced to reduce subcutaneous bleeding and edema in local tissues caused by excessive movement.

5. Pressure bandaging or ice application can be performed after surgery to reduce hematoma, oozing edema, etc. At the same time, ice application can reduce pain and reduce edema.

6． Don't eat spicy or irritating food, don't drink alcohol, etc.

To sum up, cosmetic facelift surgery generally takes 40 to 60 minutes. Each doctor’s skill level is different, and the length of the operation is also different. If the doctor is more skilled, the operation will be faster, and most can be completed in 40 minutes. If the doctor is relatively unfamiliar, the operation will take longer, and may take more than 60 minutes.
