It always took a lot for me to break a sweat and now after FL (no laser, etc.) I feel my face sweats and turns bright red very easily. Is this because I am still in the healing stage, and all the nerves and pores are trying to repair? I can ride my bike and when I'm home my face is red doesn't matter if it is cool outside or hot. Very curious.
Answer: Complete healing of the facelift will take a number of months. The hyperemia you're experiencing during exercise and overheating is very typical in any area that is healing after surgery. This will correct itself over time as the inflammation subsides.

Answer: Face red 4 moths after facelift when you hot or exercise. You are correct in your assumption. At the 4 month mark you are still healing from the facelift and most probably what you are experiencing is the redness of the healing process still showing. Check with your physician because this should be only on the areas of the surgery. If you are getting red around the central area of the face, this might be another condition of problem like Rosacea. take some pictures of the problem when it happen and show them to your physician. you will help in this way to make the best diagnosis of your problem.Hope this helps,Dr. Gus Diaz

Answer: Facial flushing after facelift Yes I think this is most likely due to the fact that your face is still in a healing phase after your facelift. Although it may not seem like it on the surface, there is generally more inflammation even 4 months after surgery compared to normal and this inflammation which is still healing the tissues on the inside can create the appearance of redness when stimulated with exercise. This should steadily resolve over the span of 6-12 months from the time of surgery.

Answer: Easy to flush after a facelift Hello imagingboomer,Whenever you undergo a facelift the body has to heal. This is done by the body developing new blood vessels in the area in order to allow for more oxygen and nutrients to come to the area. For some people this can show up as small blood vessels on the surface in the area where the skin was elevated. In others it is easy flushing which is what it sounds like you have. Anything you do that will increase the blood flow (like exercise, spicy foods, emotional distress or excitement) can lead to this appearance. For the majority of patients this is only temporary and should resolve with time as the healing process finishes. Certain facelift techniques are more prediposed to this than others so you can ask your surgeon for further verification of what is taking place.I hope this helps and good luck.
