10 months post op for Deep Plane Face/Neck lift and Upper Bleph. Whilst externally the results look good, my face feels tight and stiff underneath, including the skin above my eyes if I raise my eyebrows. It's like having a permanent face mask under my skin. This seems to be getting worse, not better. It's not painful, but very uncomfortable and I worry that it'll keep worsening. I consulted the surgeon 4 months post op and was advised to take Milgamma N. Any advice please?

It appears your skin was not adequately demarcated from the underlying muscle and thus has caused irregularities. A revision couid improve this considerably
Hello, hope you are well. Endoscopic and deep plane facelifts exist, but the two don't really go together. Sort of like an electric vehicle with an internal combustion engine. Endoscopic lifts can be done safely, but the deep plane facelift is an entirely different procedure.
Best,
