It's bee almost 2 months and my ears still feel like they are blocked up with something. My hears seems to be muffled. I have flush my ears multiple times with ear flushes without result. Doctor says this is normal.
Answer: Someone needs to look in your external ear canals.
As others have pointed out, it is possible to have retained material in the ear canals. Not just ear wax or blood, I have seen patients where a surgeon left cotton in the ear canal. The cotton is used to prevent fluid from collecting in the canal. Ask your surgeon to look in the canal. Of course it is also possible that you are just an aging rock and roller and this is actual natural hearing loss.

Answer: Decrease of Hearing After Facelift
I have seen this a few times. Typically it is related to ear wax which gets further plugged with dry blood. Your surgeon can clean this for you or you can see an ENT specialist.

Answer: Plugged hearing after facelift
You should get your ears checked out by an ear, nose, throat (otolaryngologist) to see what is going on. You may have dried blood or something else plugging up the ear canal. A thorough examination would help figure out the cause.

Answer: Hearing loss after a facelift
This is probably blood or gauze- dental role that has filled your ear canal from the surgery. You should see your surgeon and if need be an ENT surgeon to assess your ear canal. It would be extremely unlikely this is anything else if it came on immediately after Facelift surgery. After your ears are cleaned you could undergo a hearing test. Typically I place a small piece of dental role in the ear canal when performing facelifting or Parotidectomy surgery to prevent blood filling the canal.
