“Persistent swelling on one side 2 years later”
Facelift: Undecided
Cost: $7,000
Pain: Painfree
Review of Facelift:Pain: Painfree
Facelift satisfaction: Fair
I had a facelift 2 years ago and noticed a lot of swelling afterwards. It seemed to take a long time to go away but it did not look that bad.
The problem now is that the left side still looks swollen but the right side has normalized . The difference in the 2 sides has become more and more apparent.

I live in Houston and am considering a facelift-may start with just the lower area. can I ask who your physician was? I am considering Dr. Kridel. Supposedly one of the top face lift docs in Houston.

I would never advise anyone to have a necklift and if I had know more about the procedure before undergoing it, the after effects I mean I would not consider it, it wasmy surgeon who suggested this to correct the excess skin on either side of my face. It has changed my life for the worse and not for the better I have not been able to socialize now for 6 weeks and it looks like its going to take longer with the lumpiness I have on my cheeks. The tightness around the throat is the worse. I deeply regret this.
