Had a face and neck surgery done a year ago past December with a well known doctor, but the results are less than desirable. I have seen the doctor a few follow up visits after and he said the results were “70% where we want to be”. To me is more like 50% I don’t know what to do at this point.
Answer: Facelift I would recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon. If a simple revision can be done to improve your results this could be a good option.

Answer: Facelift Results It's best to seek an in person consultation because the degree of change from your procedure can't be assessed from these photos. I agree that the images shown in the photos aren't what most patients would desire, but are also inconsistent in position and lighting. If you decide to have a revision, it would be optimal to wait a full year before proceeding with a revision.

Answer: Not happy with results Thank you for your question and pictures. I would recommend for you to discuss this with your surgeon more and together come up with a plan that is acceptable to you. You can also get opinions from other well qualified surgeons to get other options and see what you feel comfortable doing. Some of your options could be re-doing the surgery to pull the facia/muscle/skin tighter, adding platysmaplasty to tighten neck muscle, fat grafting to add volume in select areas of the face, or skin tightening procedures such as FaceTite/Morpheus. Different surgeons have different approaches and a board certified plastic or facial surgeon would be able to discuss with you the cause and possible treatments for you.

Answer: Face and Neck Lift Results Hello, hope you are well. Thank you for posting with your photos. You may consider a revision face and neck lift; I do not think minimally invasive options will make up for the remaining 50%. This is something I would encourage you to explore with your primary surgeon first before seeking another opinion.
