After researching this issue I am leaning towards the deep plane face lift procedure, primarily because I have not viewed any before and after photos that show a substantial improvement from the Endoscopic cheek lift. How does one find a reputable surgeon, a specialist? The only one I found in the NY area that comes across as "The Real Deal" is Andrew Jacono. I would like more options, however, it's hard to discern through internet advertisements.
There are many different techniques that have been demonstrated to produce an effective, beautiful, and long lasting result. I have been trained in and use both the deep plane and mid-face lift. Both are great techniques when performed on properly selected patients. I vary my technique based on patient anatomy, desires, and downtime. As with any procedure, before and after pictures are helpful and board certification is a must. There are many New York area Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons that can help you accomplish your goal. Good luck and best wishes with your endeavor.
I had a Face Lift surgery performed 1.5 years ago. During three post-op visits to my surgeon, I addressed the issue of tingling in the right side of my face (the area closest to my ear and upper neck). Even the slightest touch to that area feels like needles pricking my skin. My surgeon told me that the nerves are taking a while to reattach and that in time all will heal. However, the tingling feeling has never gone away. I even reflexively pull away and wince when my baby touches me in that area. Since I have mentioned this numerous times to the same physician, I'm looking for additional opinions. Thank you for your consideration.
Sounds like you may be describing a neuroma. When nerve endings try and re-estable connections, they sometimes don't find the right connections. This then develops into a small ball of nerve endings which can be quite painful, even at the slightest touch. This can usually be corrected with additional surgery where this ball of nerve ending can be excised and buried. Either see your physician about this or seek another surgeon that can help you.
