Disappointment After Facelift and Fat Transfer?

This is sad to read. We see this all the time with mini lifts and "lifestyle" lifts. They are shorter procedures and have you back in action days later but the trade off sometimes are the results. Many times a full face/neck lift should have been done but without before and after photos there isnt really anyway to be certain. Speak with your surgeon about your expectations. You should be happy and proud of your results. Good luck

The amount of skin to be removed during a successful facelift determines the length of the incision. Short incision facelifts are often disappointing because they do not address one of the components of aging-surplus skin.

I am sorry to hear of your disappointment following your procedure. My suggestion is that you do discuss the result with your surgeon as it is difficult to comment without knowing where you started from, the pre operative discuss, and the final result.

In either case it is possible that a form of revision may be needed to address your concerns.  The form of this revision and the surgeon to perform it you will need to consider carefully,. The key to success will be clear communication as to the likely outcome and an understanding from both surgeon and patient as to whether a particular procedure will achieve the result you are after.

This is  often the source of the problem - disappointment that a minimally invasive, or short scar procedure, failed to achieve the result that a more comprehensive procedure would have.

I hope that is of some help and all the best of luck
