I am really scared how my ears look 4 weeks after facelift. Especially my tragus looks weird now, and the scars are not nice either. What can be done and when?

Answer: "funny looking ear" after face lift Thank you for your question and for attaching photos. At 4 weeks out, you are still early on in your recovery. Your tragus flap does appear bulky. This could be residual swelling and could resolve on its own. It also could be that there is still some fat under the flap. If this is the case and the flap as not de-bulked enough, a scar revision could be performed at about 3 months to make that scar better. Best of luck.

Answer: Shape of tragus after facelift The tragus does appear to be overly full after your facelift. This could be due to swelling or there could be some fat left under the skin which is causing the bulky appearance. I would give this more time and see how it resolves over the next 3 to 4 months. The scars appear to be healing normally, the pink color will improve with time.
