why does my facelift hardly look any different? (photos)

January 2, 2014
Asked By:foxden

I am 55 years of age, 7 weeks ago had a full facelift, i am dissappointed that there is hardly any change. I wanted the facelift as i am getting married in March and wanted back my confidence. when i took these photos i was convinced that the jowl lines were tighter but this week the numbness has started to dissappear and the jowl line has started to drop. i do not see my surgeon for another 6 weeks. Not one person has noticed any difference. Can anyone advice me on what to do.
