How can i get rid of scars in front of my ears after a face lift?

Scars are permanent: You can seek plastic surgical opinions on improving the position of the scars, or improving the quality of the closure, but your own genetics of healing cannot be altered. The best scars are well-placed, meticulously-closed without tension (layers), and kept from ultraviolet exposure so they don't darken. Sometimes scar revision or laser treatments can improve them.
