While the patient is sleepy (sedated) and pain-free (local anesthesia) or deep asleep and pain-free (general anesthesia), the plastic surgeon makes incisions above the hairline at the temples, behind the earlobe, to the lower scalp.
The surgeon removes some of the fat tissue and loose skin, then stitches (sutures) the incisions closed.
