Facelift Scars - Mr Karri's Almost Invisible Method

Mr Karri very carefully plans each of his facelifts to ensure that the facelift scars are barely visible. Many patients are, understandably, concerned about the visibility of scars and the potential for their hairline to change. Mr Karri closes the facelift incisions with extremely fine sutures and staples and never shaves any hair. As you can see from the image above, the scars are hardly noticeable.
