 [ Symptoms ] why is a male face lift more difficult to do [ Disease ] the male face lift is infinitely more demanding than the female because of all the blood supply see a male is face has a much richer blood supply to support the thicker skin and the beard all male skin generally is thicker than the comparable female and the beard demands extra nutrition so we spend a lot more time there so that is whatever time we quote for a woman we have to add on almost 45 minutes to an hour longer for a man and in terms of cutting and rearranging features is there a difference yeah the incision is different because a man is incision if done as a woman is placed in the curvature of the ear the man would be shaving inside his ear canal because you slide up hair bearing skin so on a man you have to put the incision in front here it actually takes a little longer to close also since that incision is more visible to the eye it has to be absolutely primo not that we do not try to be primo in these other areas but they lend themselves to easier healing fewer stitches this you have to have at least two layers of stitches so that there is not stretching it is just more complex
