Hairline and hair damage from Facelift - what can I do to fix this? (photos)

8
8perrosMar 9, 2022

Surgeon has a technique to hide scars in the hair, apparently. No pre-surgery discussion about my hairline or hair preservation. Now I have a radically shifted hairline, no sideburns and bald patches on both sides. Oh, and he did not do my neck so that still looks old, especially when I look down. What do I do?

I understand you are very upset because you had 3 surgeries in 3 years is a lot which will definitely slow down healing thats true. My first suggestion would be to avoid a 4th surgery in short term. Based on your photos I assume you are very young ( you look very young which means you benefited...

I would recommend a revision face/necklift. I recommend seeing a board-eligible or board-certified ACTUAL plastic surgeon with at least 6 years of integrated plastic surgery training (ideally followed by an aesthetic fellowship accredited by The Aesthetic Society).

Without any photos or further informatino, I typically advise waiting at least a year prior to revision to ensure that everything has softened and swelling has resolved. It depends somewhat on what technique was used initially and what needs to be addressed in the revision.
