Can Ear Lobe, Ear Shape Altered in Lower Face Lift Surgery Be Improved or Fixed? (photo)

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

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.

Earlobes can be improved following your surgery by a relatively straight forward procedure  named a V to y closure. This is  usually done in the office and takes approximately 30 minutes to perform.
