I know it's still early, and I have talked with my surgeon, but I would just like another opinion. I'm 3 weeks out from a facelift and neck lipo. I am still swollen and very tight, understandably, but I'm mostly concerned with what I call the "bicycle tire" around my neck. My surgeon advised that I do some massage and just be patient. But when I look online I mostly see platysmal bands, not these horizontal lumps. Is this normal?

Answer: Facelift Thanks for your question! I agree that you just need to be patient. It looks like you still have significant swelling which should subside with time. Continue to wear compression and follow the instructions of your surgeon! Good luck!

Answer: Neck Swelling After Facelift Thank you for the question and photos. Your neck and jowls look amazing!! It is nice to show the before photo. Areas of swelling and irregularity in the neck after a procedure like this is common and should go away with time. The photo angles make it a little difficult to compare, but it looks a bit better even from the second picture (probably about a week or 10 days out) to the third and fourth picture. Keep being patient, I think it will get there.
