Hello, I am 41 and I had facetite procedure with liposuction 2 years ago which did not do much to my bulky lower face. I have consulted 2 doctors about getting a facelift done but when I told them that I had a facetite procedure, most of them said that I cannot have a facelift now because RF can interfere with vascular web and chances of necrosis developing is pretty high. Does it mean i dont have any options left at all? I dont want fillers or botox.
Ive recently had a face & brow lift and Ive since been experiencing black bruising, Im concerned its Necrosis. My surgery was April 4th, my surgeon said it was congestion. Weve been treating it with nitrogen and Flamazine while keeping it moist. Im 4 year smoke free however, I vape. I had zero nicotine 2 weeks prior to the surgery. Is it Necorsis? Is it treatable without debridement? How long will it last? What else should I be doing? Yes, Ive stayed away from vaping.
I'm 13 days post op from face/neck lift, and have started to develop areas of what I think is necrosis. Had a lot of swelling immediately post-op, and surgeon stated a lot of bleeding during procedure. Don't smoke I'm concerned more areas will start to break down - left side of face is now looking a little grey Surgeon stated it may just take longer to heal
Hi, I had surgery abroad so have no follow up. I've got itchy skin around the right hand ear and I've noticed its very red and spreading. I've drawn a black line to check if its spreading below, and it is slowly. Could it just be a reaction to daily dose of betadine, as I used to get eczma in this area. Your help is much appreciated. This is the down side or going for surgery abroad I hadn't considered.
I'm 4 weeks and 1 day post op Facelift and Ear pinning ...I just noticed this black spot behind my ear today....I seen my P.S. today for a check up and she looked there and didn't say anything about it...i seen it when I got home...should I be worried...what type of care does it need? It's my left ear.
I had a face lift in BELLEVUE Wa about 18 months ago. Bad experience wish I didn't do it. One side of my face had severe scaring which after going to another surgeon I found out was necrosis. On that same side I also have these stark white lines and small white marks. What could have caused this? They are not where I was cut. They appeared after about a month. I have to have a scar revision done but was told I have to wait a few years.
5 weeks post facelift & fat transfer surgery. Ridges have not changed in weeks. Opened for aspiration, but solid. I have 6 large HARD bumps in lower cheeks and neck that have not changed with massage, heat, or aspiration. From what I have read I am beginning to think it may be fat necrosis, if so what is the next procedure to resolve it? My PS scares me when he says, he has not seen this and it is just the way I am healing. He is trying, but I am worried that I should be taking action.
