## How Is Facelift Surgery Performed?

**Facelift in Dubai** is performed as an outpatient procedure and involves local anesthetics or sedatives. It is a surgical procedure that [makes your](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/11381/what-makes-your-business-better) face appear young. It can take up to 2 to 5 hours for this procedure to complete. However, for facelift recovery, at least one week is required.

For the surgery, an incision is made in front of the ear by the surgeon that extends up into the hair reaching the hair-bearing scalp.

The skin is then lifted off the deeper facial muscle and gently pulled in an upward and posterior direction. Your surgeon might tighten the deep facial tissues too. After that, the incisions are closed using sutures.
