Why is my chin sore and feeling tugging below ears 1 year after having chin implant and deep plane facelift?

I recommend following up with your Doctor. The soreness and redness you're experiencing may indicate an infection and your implant may need to be removed. The pixie ears can be improved with a minor procedure. I hope this helps!

I am sorry that you had a rough postoperative course and have ongoing concerns.  The one comment that I can make is regarding pixie ears.  Since the earlobe is a loose, elastic soft tissue structure, absolutely no tension can be placed on it during skin removal and wound closure.  Pixie ears form when this principle isn't followed, but are correctable with a V to Y closure or a revision facelift.  Modern facelift techniques rely on the SMAS as the tension bearing layer.  It's always best to revisit these issues with your Surgeon and get a few more opinions if this isn't satisfactory.
