I am concerned that when i put my hair back for dance class, the slight asymmetry of cheeks will be apparent and tip off my eagle-eye classmates about my surgery. I do not want to broadcast my procedures to the world. If i wait another week to go to class, in your experience will things relax a bit more, or would i have to wait a full three months for my cheeks to become a bit more symmetrical? Or could i possibly lose more fat unevenly during that time. Thank you for your response.

Answer: Cheek asymmetry Thank you for your picture. You are early in your recovery. Your asymmetry will most likely improve over time.

Answer: Some asymmetry three weeks after a facelift is fairly common. Healing is seldom symmetrical so the picture doesn't demonstrate anything at the moment that's alarming. As long as the trend is favorable over the next few weeks you should be fine.

Answer: Great facelift You do not show us your before pictures so I can't comment on your change/results, but you seem to look great. You do have slight asymmetry which is not unusual. Nobody has perfectly symmetric face, and you may have had some asymmetry before. Also since it's been only three weeks, expect that your face will continue to go through changes. Finally, with fat grafting, it takes over 3 months for all results to settle. You may loose some of the grafted fat and that will show over the next 3 months, leading to further changes.
