Answer: SMAS Facelift Revision - What next
First of all, for the vast majority of plastic surgeons the money that is paid for surgery is for their best effort, cumulative experience and talent to obtain results. As plastic surgery is an art and inexact science no result guarantees are made.
Second - a "one Stitch" procedure does not make a facelift and I doubt it would be corrective.
Your best advice is to find a different Qualified Plastic Surgeon in Your Area
Best bet is to find a board certified Plastic Surgeon who is a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or the American Society for Plastic Surgery (ASPS) near you home. I have provided links below to make it easy for you to find a well qualified plastic surgeon near your home that is familiar with secondary facelift procedures.

Answer: Facelift Revision Thank you for your question and pictures. A single stitch on the SMAS muscle would not correct sagging jowls and create a scooter jawline. To give a smooth and contoured jawline the SMAS muscle and skin would both need to be addressed. I would advise that you would need a whole facelift again which actually targets the muscle, therefore giving you the longevity of a traditional facelift 7-10 years. This can be performed under local anaesthetic, therefore significantly reducing the downtime due to no drains and bandages. Overall getting little bruising and swelling, so returning to your daily activities as soon as possible. This would allow for your scars to be adjusted and improved, making you more confident with your appearance. Please make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve. All The Best

Answer: Facelift revision options
It sounds like your best bet at this point is to seek a second opinion from a different plastic surgeon. The scars can be addressed in addition to your jowl area. You should chose your next surgeon carefully, and make sure they are very experienced with facial plastic surgery.

Answer: Failed SMAS Facelift and Revision
It is highly unlikely that a single suture in the SMAS would correct your jowls. At this point you will need a tertiary facelift. This procedure should allow for improvement of your jowls and also improvement of the scars. Make sure that you find a surgeon with experience in secondary facelifting.
