Facelift nerves. What are the chances of it causing my to have a droopy lip?

It is possible that a facelift will cause a droopy lip, and if it does happen, it normally resolves with time. It is not a common complication.
Having had a droopy lift after facetite does not increase your risk of having a droopy lip again.
Yes, I agree, sometimes age makes us more nervous than we were previously.

It's great to hear you're moving forward with your facelift and neck lift! It's completely normal to feel a bit more nervous this time, especially after your previous experience.

As for the droopy lip, it's possible for complications like that to occur again, but the chances can vary based on several factors, including your surgeon's technique, your anatomy, and how your body heals. Discussing your concerns with your surgeon can provide more insight. They can evaluate your previous experiences and explain how they plan to minimize risks this time around.

Feeling nervous is natural, but remember that you've already had a successful procedure with FaceTite, and your surgeon will be aware of your history. It can be helpful to ask any questions you have, so you feel more informed and at ease. You're taking a positive step for yourself, and that’s exciting!

Temporary facial weakness can occur after facelift surgery but is very uncommon. It is typically limited to one area of the face on one side. In my opinion this risk is higher with procedures such as facetite as this device is heating tissue around the probe and this can cause collateral damage to tissue near nerves. Find an experienced facelift surgeon and they can give you more specific advice about the risk of temporary facial nerve injury after facelift surgery but this is rare in experience hands. Best.
