Will not interfere: A midface lift performed on the deep tissues of the cheek should not effect one's ability to detect melanoma of the skin.

No cause-effect : Cutaneous melanoma is a disease of the skin and in mid facelift or regular facelift, unless a suspicious pigmented lesion is in the skin excision line, there are no factors associated with increased incidence of melanoma or issues with detection of melanoma.
