Answer: Facelift danger signs. Any mottled skin after facelift is a danger sign of poor skin circulation. This is a very significant risk for smokers, and can also appear if there is bleeding after the procedure. Your photo says it all so keep in close contact with your sugeon.

Answer: Postop There are many fine details that help clinicians diagnose infection and compromised blood flow. While pictures may be suggestive, lighting and camera settings may change important details which can lead to a misdiagnosis. An in person evaluation is really the only way to accurately determine if one has infection or skin compromise. If you haven't already done so, please contact your Plastic Surgeon to set up an evaluation to have these questions answered.
