I had a necklift 2 months ago. I have a pixie ear, my neck looks horrible and I feel like I have a lateral sweep. Is this what I’m experiencing? Can this be corrected? If so, when???

Answer: Facelift Complications Just to be clear, the pictures show facelift incisions, and not an isolated necklift. There are some elements that you describe that may resolve over time. However, given the appearance of fairly easily avoidable pixie ears, a revision is most likely the best way to proceed at 1 year postop. I say easily avoidable, because pixie ears are a direct result of skin over-excision, suggesting a problem with the technique utilized. I recommend getting a few opinions of experienced facelift Surgeons.

Answer: Surgery The earlobes can be revised. It is too soon to revise the face, but noninvasive radiofrequency treatments with micro-needling like Secret or Morpheus can be very helpful to continue to tighten and improve your skin.
