I got a lower facelift/necklift in 2018 when I was 40. It looked great but now my neck skin has started to get crepey and my jowls are starting to become noticeable. Do you think I can delay a revision get a deep plane lift for a few years and until then maybe use facetite and like Morpheus8? Please excuse my dry skin in the photos(retinol).
I had a lower blepharoplasty w/ tear through implants in 2022 and a lower facelift in May 2023. I wanted to get the facelift to specifically get rid of the wrinkles around my mouth. Jowls. I am not happy with my relults. My lower face on the sides of my mouuth now look like a small circle pouch or something. What can I do? Thank you. What do you think was done wrong that I have this issue?
I had a mini facelift 2 years ago and do not think the outcome was successful. The areas of concern were my jowls, jawline, nasobilial folds, double chin, which from our pre-op appts and from other patient photos, he showed me that all of those areas will be improved. I have attached the doctors pre-op photos, 4 months post op, and my photos. He has said that the outcome of my surgery is great but I disagree. I also have tingling and sensory changes from my cheekbone to my ear. Please advise.
I had a facelift and supposedly, a necklift about two months ago. The surgeon did not through an incision under the chin. After surgery, I felt a hard and sore bunching at both sides of my neck, behind ears and slightly below on my neck. This hard tissue that bulged out of neck eventually relaxed a littlebut now it has turned into thick pleats and folds. Is this normal? Ive never seen this on someones facelift before? It looks awful. Is this a sign of a poorly executed necklift/ facelift?
Had a full facelift 1 yr ago. Jowls returned so Dr agreed to lower facelift revision at no cost after 1yrs time. Had procedure, local anesthesia, didnt feel pain but could feel pulling. Excruciating pain after, a few days only. Day one I looked GREAT! But a little after a week, noticed jawline softening and jowls returning. I am devastated. Dr suggested could be swelling, have to wait. Wonderfully Skilled surgeon in major US city. Pic 1+2 are 1st day. Why is this happening?
The revision my PS has suggested would be to make a longer incision from under my chin and along to the jowl area, where a little fat may be removed, and then the skin would be lifted and the surplus skin cut away before being pulled together and sutured. This I am told by the PS will leave noticeable scarring along my neck and concerns me. I would be grateful to hear of any other options which would not leave noticeable scars? I am now 13 months since lower face and neck lift surgery!
My jowls have decended. The Dr. agree's he would need to re-do my surgery. I'm still numb and sore, I worry if he's qualfied since it didn't turn out right the first time. My face still feels tight. Should I go to another Dr. who does smart lipo and have my jowls done or do you think I need to go thru it all again? I would also like to add I had ten days of severe pain and couldn't open my jaw wide enough to eat solid foods for about three weeks. Another Dr. I saw said that wasn't normal.
I had mini facelift in 2018 and I still have one jowl remaining. I got answers to my question previously that I could potentially do lipo on one side but since I am older the skin will be loose and I. So not want to do any fillers. If I have to do revision on one side with the lipo, what is the usual cost and recovery time?
I am at 11 months post surgery and feeling less than satisfied with my overall results including under eye scarring/discoloration, eye bags, unevenness of fat grafting, draping of skin, smile impact (my cheeks don't allow me to smile normally), continued edema and jowls. Why should my next steps be?
