Can a facelift be performed on African-Americans, Asians or Hispanics?
Yes. African-Americans, Asians, and other ethnicities do have some unique considerations that we will discuss with you during the facelift consultation. While African-Americans and Asians have an increased chance of keloid scarring, this is something that is usually predictable and avoidable. With respect to the actual surgery, the face ages in the exact same manner across all races. The facelift surgery is thus performed in a similar manner.
