I have recently had a partial facelift that unfortunately did not correct my marionette folds. I have had filler in the past which also did not adequately reduce/correct these. I am considering having these folds excised. I realize that there is much controversy surrounding this procedure due to the issue of scarring. In my mind I would trade a small likely imperceptible scar for obvious and glaring marionette folds. I would appreciate any input. Thanks so much.
I highly discourage excision of these. Sounds like what you needed was a full facelift instead of a 'partial' one. Please consider a full facelift before attempting excision. Best wishes, Dr. H
Rosacea is under control, but I have thin skin. Thank you
Go ahead and schedule your facelift! It may flare up due to the stress of the surgery, but should subside in no time.
Kind regards, Dr. H
I've had several consultations. One doctor puts in drains, one doesn't, and one uses glue.
Personally, I find that using drains in a full facelift decreases the amount of swelling. Without them, excess fluid has no where else to go, but stay in the face and delay healing. Drains in my opinion allow patients to return to normal sooner. Best wishes, Dr. H
