The scaring behind my ears have horrified me. The skin is all bunched up and my right ear is now higher and sits out more than originally. I have seen much smoother jobs online. I also cannot talk properly because of the tightening of the neck which also has left dimple affects both sides of neck. Will this bunching flatten completely? If I need surgery to fix this when would it be suitable to undergo? Have I expected too much this early?
Answer: Bunching after facelift Sorry you are in this predicament vrich1. I suspect this is going to need revision. It should improve a little in the next few weeks but there is a lot of skin excess to "lose". This is why I am not an advocate of the short scar facelifts.

Answer: Bunching after facelift surgery Contour irregularities after facelift surgery can be seen regardless of technique. Fortunately, it is an often forgiving surgery and minor contour irregularities and bunching usually improve with time. This often results from an attempt to limit incisions, which is a noble goal. Nevertheless, some degree of bunching can be seen in short scar facelifts because the skin is not allowed to optimally redrape. In this case, the bunching will improve, but I would be prepared for some minor skin revision.

Answer: #MACSliftSwelling You are still very early after surgery and way too early to determine your final results. If you have reasonable elasticity most if not all of your observed concerns will resolve on their own. With swelling, edema, the ear lobe will stand out, but this too will resolve.

Answer: Excess skin after facelift You are still very early in your postoperative recovery and I would recommend that you give yourself more time before you judge results. That being said, it does appear that you already have a significant amount of excess skin still present and may need a revision.

Answer: It's too early It's too early, your face will go through a lot of changes. I don't think 9 days after surgery is enough for you to see the final results. YOu may or may not need a touch up, but I would allow things to heal for at least three months before jumping into a revision.
