Can a bad neck lift be fixed? ((photo)

November 2, 2014
Asked By:Jimbobway in Daly City, CA

Seven years ago I had a SMAS mid/lower-facelift, which included a neck lift. Several months post-op I noticed that the left side had noticeable laxity. Upon seeing this, the surgeon shot lidocaine behind my left ear and removed a section of skin, pulling the rest straight-up and suturing it. Afterward the left side of my neck looked pulled and there were now noticeable wrinkles radiating from behind my left ear and covering the left side of my neck. Can anything be to fix this?
