Lumpiness and Mottling 4 Weeks After Necklift? (photo)

The swelling you are describing is normal following a face and neck lift. In some instances feeling tightness without any swelling is common. Warm compress and time will resolve your swelling. Good luck with healing.

Thank you for your question. What you describe and show are very normal. The typical healing for a Face/neck  can be up to a year and longer. Your skin will recoil over time. Covey your concerns to your surgeon. He/She wants you to have a great result as well. Trust in, and follow their post-op regime.
Best wishes.

The #incision scars from a necklift  tend to “mature” or soften within six to twelve months from the surgery date. During this time, the rejuvenating effects of the necklift will become most obvious and the neck feels the most normal (ex. little discomfort, soft, normal sensation, no more post-op firmness). Following this stage, the true restorative effects of your necklift result will be apparent. At your next visit, it is suggested to ask your doctor about #massage techniques to improve your #healing.
