Why did jowls return after facelift revision? 60 year old woman. (Photos)

Asked By:SJ32

Had a full facelift 1 yr ago. Jowls returned so Dr agreed to lower facelift revision at no cost after 1yrs time. Had procedure, local anesthesia, didn’t feel pain but could feel pulling. Excruciating pain after, a few days only. Day one I looked GREAT! But a little after a week, noticed jawline softening and jowls returning. I am devastated. Dr suggested could be swelling, have to wait. Wonderfully Skilled surgeon in major US city. Pic 1+2 are 1st day. Why is this happening?
