31.3.1 Consent 31.3.3 Preoperative Markings
The patient is admitted to the hospital or clinic after a routine check up with the nurse (Table 31.2). The author goes and signs the consent with the patient. Always have a chaperone as a witness, who also signs the form. The author answers any questions the patient might want to ask or missed at consultation.
31.3.2 Photography
At this stage the author takes a lot of digital photographs. Eight views are preferred (1) anterior, (2) two lateral, (3) two anterolateral,( 4) neck, (5) eyes, and (6) one on animation. The background is blue and the distance is constant, using a macro lens help to achieve clear and consistent results.
Another preoperative photo is taken after marking the patient.
It is important to mark the patient while awake so she/ he is aware of the position of scars and decides whether the scar is pretragal or posttragal. The extent of postauricular scar depends on the state of the neck and extent of dissection in the neck. Superiorly, the scar is inside the hairline as long as the superior flap migrates and rotates.
The extent of dissection is marked in the neck depending on the amount of submental fat and laxity of anterior fibers of platysma.
31.3.4Preoperative Preparation on the Operating Table
It is important for the patient to be comfortable on the table. The patient is placed on a head ring that is soft

FACELIFT
BEFORE SURGERY
Your procedure will be performed under twilight anesthesia (intravenous sedation)
1.For your comfort, please bring a pair of sunglasses, headscarf, or hat to wear after surgery
2.No makeup or lotions on your face prior to surgery. No vitamin E for a week prior to surgery
3.If you bleach, tint, color, or perm your hair, then please do so not later than 1 week prior to surgery. It will be at least 6 weeks before you can have this done again
4.DO NOT CUT YOUR HAIR before surgery in order for incisions to be covered postoperatively
NEXT MORNING
1.Please write down your questions so that the Surgeon and staff may prepare you well to go home
2.You will be seen by the Surgeon in the treatment room where your bandages will be changed and your dressings checked AFTER SURGERY(THIS INFORMATION SHOULD BE ADHERED TO, TO ENSURE A SAFE RECOVERY)
1.You may experience some swelling of the face and you may also have bruising on the neck and chest. This is normal and should disappear within 2 weeks. You can apply ice compresses to exposed areas for the first 48 h
2.Consume a soft diet for 3 days after surgery
3.You may wash your hair 3 days after surgery
4.When sleeping, LIE ON YOUR BACK with your head at approximately a 45° angle for seven nights after surgery to help minimize any swelling. This can be accomplished with two pillows under your head and one under your shoulders
5.Limit activities such as bending, straining, and lifting. Avoid excessive neck turning movements and heavy physical exertion for the first month. Avoid also any movements that will give you the feeling of pulling or tightness along the incision line. We do not want you to stretch your incisions. No hot baths for 1 week
6.Should you have pain not relieved by your prescribed medications, please call. Do not take aspirin for up to 1 week postoperatively
7.If you are bleeding through your bandages, do contact the surgeon or the hospital immediately
8.No alcohol should be taken for 1 week after surgery
9.Protect your skin always with a daily sunblock
10.You may have a facial, hair coloring, perms after 6 weeks. Enjoy!
and stable. The hair is combed back and parted where the incisions are planned. The skin is cleaned with iodine. Two probes are inserted for use of the nerve stimulator in order to monitor the temporal and mandibular branches of the facial nerve, especially when the dissection is subplatysmal. The area of surgery should be properly exposed, so the neck, face, and temporal regions are draped appropriately.
31.3.5Anesthesia: Intravenous Sedation
See Chap. 6.
31.3.6 Nerve Mapping
Before operating and infusing local infiltration, the vital nerves that might be encountered during surgery are mapped. The following are the ones the author maps.
1.Temporal branch: below a line drawn from 0.5 cm below the tragus to 2 cm above lateral eyebrow and above zygoma 4 cm from lateral canthus.
2.Mandibular branch 2 cm posterior to oral commissure.
3.Posterior auricular nerve 6.5 cm below external auditory canal.
4.Also map the extent of the dissection and the areas that might need fat transfer in the midface, or for direction of pull if threads are used during open surgery.
