  • Title: How much lift in a facelift?
    Author: Sokol AB, Sokol TP.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1981 Mar; 6(3):224-7. PubMed ID: 7235547.
    Abstract:
    A reproducible, quantitative approach for measuring skin removed during face lifting is presented. The approach consists of measuring skin at four distinct points. These measurements are statistically analyzed and compared with seventeen patient variables. The approach is applicable to all varieties and techniques of face lifting. This method of quantification could serve as a standard means of defining the extent of face lifting, for use not only in operative reports but also in the literature.
