I have some red marks on my neck, nearly six weeks after a face/necklift. One comes down from behind my left ear and extends onto the neck, and the other is in the center of the neck/throat. I have been using BioCorneum on these marks. How long can I expect these to last before they fade? (see attached photo) Thank you.

Answer: Red areas after face lift These look almost like you may have had some slight skin slough in this area. Did you get a scab here? When that happens it takes longer for the redness to fade. Also wonder if you wore a garment that may have been rubbing in this area. IT will all face. May want to try some IPL to help speed up the resolution.

Answer: Persistent red mark should be shown to your surgeon. If you are six weeks postop these areas should have substantially resolved. If you're wearing some sort of compressive garment it may be irritating the skin. Regardless you should show this to your surgeon.
