How long should I wait to have an add on to a surgery that did not work? Endotine lift made me look worse than before

September 15, 2015
Asked By:2ndChancegirl in Carmel, IN

I wanted a lower face rejuvenation and Dr. suggested an endotine mid face lift. I asked about doing an s-lift too but was told I didn't need it and would get the result with the mid face lift. Now, one month post lift I am more self conscious about my face than before. My cheeks are lifted but my jawline and neck actually look worse than before. I also look oddly hollow right below my cheeks. When can I get the lower facelift done to fix this? Anything I can do in the meantime?
