Will my face tighten anymore as it heals?

After a facelift, the tightest that your face will appear is usually 3days after surgery. This is when I find that my patients are at the peak of their swelling. The muscles will not get any tighter than what was done surgically at the time of your procedure. What I find is that at three months or later, the result that you see  will most accurately represent  how things will look for the long term. It will not tighten as time goes on. 

Thank you very much for your question and congratulations
on your recent facelift procedure. However, without photographs or additional
information, it is difficult to provide any meaningful advice. In general,
swelling will take from three to six months to fully resolve, so you should
wait before making a final assessment of your results. That being said, your
skin will probably relax and become less taut as the swelling resolves. I
recommend bringing your concerns to your operating surgeon, who may suggest one
of the many exciting, noninvasive skin tightening techniques available today,
such as a chemical peel or laser light therapy.
