Would scar tissue be an issue for me? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and pictures.  You would be an amazing candidate for neck liposuction to remove any fat under the chin area, this could be combined with a local anaesthetist facelift and necklift which will remove any excess skin.  This would help achieve a contoured L shaped neck and remove any jowls, giving a nice sharp jawline.  In terms of scar tissue, it wouldn't cause a problem or affect the overall results. It would just cause the surgery to last slightly longer.
Most of my patients want a facelift however do not want the downtime associated.  The Concept Facelift is the procedure I perform, which combines the latest surgical techniques with the use of local anaesthetic to dramatically reduce the risks associated with traditional facelifts, while significantly reducing the bruising and downtime of your recovery, from months to a matter of days. 
If you have lax facial skin, lost volume and feel that you have jowls and wrinkles on your cheeks and you look tired when you're not then the concept facelift can help improve your appearance. With concept facelift you will look natural and fresh just like the way you feel inside. There are no bandages, drains and hospital stay but with lasting results of traditional facelift techniques it fits with today's age.
What are the benefits of a local anaesthetic facelift?
Minimally invasive as it is a short scar facelift, although has the same effects as the Traditional Facelift as the SMAS muscle is tightened along with the skin.There is minimal bruising and swelling, especially when compared to traditional faceliftsAs the procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, you can go straight home following the procedureFull recovery in a matter of days rather than monthsSignificantly less risk than Facelifts performed under general anaestheticFresh, youthful and long lasting resultsPlease make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve.  All The Best 

Thank you for your question.  Yes, it appears she would be an excellent candidate for a facelift.  I'm sorry you had some facial nerve paralysis after your parotidectomy.  You can certainly have a revision facelift, however it is very important that you find an experienced surgeon in facelifting.  Be sure to tell him/her about your previous parotid surgery and the facial nerve paralysis you had afterwards.  There we'll be scar tissue, and the facial nerve on the right side  will be in a more exposed to position now than it was before your parotid surgery.Again, be sure to consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who has experience with face lifts.  Here you will have a full evaluation and be able to discuss her goals for surgery.I hope that this helps!–David Gilpin

HI,  Scar tissue definitely could be a problem, but a very skilled plastic surgeon who does a lot of facelifts should be able to help you achieve a younger look to your face. Check out several Board certified plastic surgeons in your area and see what they have to say after they examine you in personBest,Dr. Christine Rodgers

Your facial nerve will be more exposed after your parotid surgery and I would suggest going to a very experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon before undergoing the procedure.  

Thanks for sharing.  In general a previous parotidectomy would exclude someone from having a standard facelift.  The Facial Nerve is now more exposed and at risk of being injured during the facelift surgery.  You would have to find a highly qualified facial plastic surgeon that would be able and want to perform the facelift.  There are newer non surgical technologies out there that can get some improvement without the risk of nerve injury.  Best of luck!
