Lower face lift with dehiscence? Treatment opinion requested (Photo)

This is not frequent but unfortunately very unpleasant complication of face lift surgery. Wound in this area heal with scar that may be acceptable or in some cases will require revision. Doing nothing but basic wound care would be my recommendation. If needed, you may consider scar revision when scar is mature. Although this is very dramatic event you should stay patient and follow recommendations of your surgeon. More surgery right now, including skin graft, is not a good option. Patience and good luck.

There are various reasons for this to occur but sometimes this occurrence cannotbe readily explained.  It sounds as if your doctor treated this appropriately.  At this point,the area will heal adequately with wound care but will likely take several months.  If theresult is still not satisfactory, scar revision can be considered months later.  I would notconsider skin grafting at this point.
