Im 53 and these scars from my lower facelift really bother me. After 5-years of using every cream and lotion to make them disappear, I need professional help. My PS said scar revision surgery could help. Is that the best option or should I consider something else like a laser treatment of some sort? I’d like to be able to wear my hair up and realize I will always have scars but have seen other scars that are much less visible.

Answer: Scar revision surgery is a great option for behind-the-ear scars from a previous facelift It seems that you're unhappy with your scars from your previous surgery. To answer your one question, yes usually a scar revision is an excellent option to improve this. Of course, there are other options that do not involve surgery and these can give varying degrees of improvement.I would recommend that you see a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area that is a member of both ASPS & ASAPS and performs a lot of facelifts if you want a second opinion and of course, make sure you follow up with your own surgeon and talk about this. I hope this helps and wish you all the best in your surgery and event. If it does, please take a moment to up vote this answer on the “respond” button on the top right.

Answer: Face lift Scar revision The only treatment to improve current scars is scar revision. Scars need to be place in new position within the hairline and much higher behind the ear. You should consult an experienced plastic surgeon with good reputation in face lift surgery for in person consultation. Good luck.
