Abstract

Assessing the proportionality of extended facelift surgery across surgeons is not an easy task. Risks and assumed benefits need to be weighted, yet, especially the latter is difficult to objectify. Reverse engineering the pathway of two leading facelift surgeons suggest that excellent training and focused high-volume facelift surgery preceded their leadership. Yet these conditions are not available to all surgeons. Hence defining extended facelift techniques as the professional standard, could promote novice surgeons into a path that may not correspond to safe practice.
