I had a face lift and have visible scars on my ears. The ear shape has been changed and also one of my ear lobes has been sewn against my face. See photos.

Answer: Facelif Scar Revision Would Help Thank you for sharing your photos and questions. I would agree with your assessment that your facelift scars and earlobes could be improved. The position of the scars, their effect on the tragus and earlobes could all be improved to give them a more natural appearance. Seek consultation from a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in facial procedures to discuss scar revision. Best wishes.

Answer: This can be revised.
Tailoring the facelift for the ears often is neglected. The good news is that the issue you have can benefit from revisional surgery. While this is considered minor surgery, you are likely to be very happy that you had this addressed

Answer: Facelift Incisions
Although these incisions aren't perfect, they are in the range of acceptability with several flaws. In the right ear, the skin flap is relatively thick at the lower end of the tragus as it meets the earlobe. In addition, there is asymmetry in the way the earlobes were inset during closure. Ideal closure after a Facelift takes time and attention to detail. The good news is that these post-surgical features are relatively easily addressed under local anesthesia. There are incisional mistakes in facelift which are much harder to correct.
