Zero evidence of fl or ft, though am now deformed. Wanted a little volume, if anything, am more gaunt & skeletal. Another goal was a sharp jawline, never happened, actually looks worse. My mouth is pulling/getting wider in a odd way. My face is taking on a weird stretched shape, not attractive, certainly not younger or esthetically improved. Ear & ear canal is HUGE. Do I have to redo this right away, before I am completely mutated (I am not at all exaggerating.)
Answer: Disappointed after facelift Thank you for a great question and for sharing your photos and experience. I am sorry to hear that you did not obtain the results you wanted. It is difficult to fully evaluate your concerns from the single photograph. If revision surgery is ultimately decided, typically it is recommended to wait at least 6-12 months after the prior surgery unless there is an unusual issue. I would discuss your concerns with your surgeon or seek an in person second opinion. I hope that is helpful.I recommend consulting with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to further discuss your concerns and options."This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion. Seek in-person treatment with a trained medical professional for appropriate care."

Answer: Unhappy with Facelift Thank you for your question.It is difficult to provide recommendations based on only one photo that is blurry. Are you able to provide more photos? It is also helpful to provide preoperative photos for evaluation.However, in general, if you are unhappy with your result, I recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon. They will be able to make recommendations on how to proceed. If you aren't confident in your doctor, or don't think they can give you the result you are desiring, you may choose to seek out the recommendations of a board certified plastic surgeon that has experience with secondary/revision facelifting. Best of luck!

Answer: FACE LIFT RESULT For a proper evaluation of your results before and after photos of your face in different views, both profiles, oblique and frontal view are necessary. Then also it is important to get an evaluation in person to check your skin elasticity, dynamic facial expressions, if there is some extra skin, etc. It may be too soon to correct any problem right now, removing or pulling more on your face may end looking even more tight. Please consult with your surgeon to see what are your options.

Answer: I'm 61, had surgery in May, Loma Linda University Plastic Surgery Clinic. Was supposed to be fat transfer and facelift. Without a pre-op and standard post-operative photos- it is impossible to provide an accurate opinion. Please, seek an experienced Board Certified PS for in person exam/second opinion.

Answer: Using skin tension to generate aesthetic changes during facelift can distort the ear and create unwanted bands. It's difficult to comment based on the photograph. Tension generated on the tragus by facelift designed to create lot of skin tension can look forward and make the external auditory canal auditory canal look large. It can also distort the earlobe and create tension bands in the face. If this is the case after swelling is totally resolved, about six months, the skin will need to be mobilized and read done in such a fashion to eliminate tension along the skin incision.
