VerifiedThere are many approaches to facelifting. The traditional method is to employan incision which extends from above the ear in the front of the ear and around the back of the ear into the hairline.
Newer methodsemployed much shorter incision, which does not extend IDE are very far.
Both methods result in a much fresher look. Neither method will make her look different. However,she should have a greatly refreshed appearance and appear much younger.
The proper way for her to have a successful procedure is to use a board certified plastic surgeon. Although this does not guarantee a perfect result, it's the best way to insure a satisfactory result.

The upward pull method is the one used in the short scar technique. It is perfectly acceptable and achieves great results when performed correctly.
