I'm a 26 years old male who had a very flat and droop midface.3 years ago i got a mid face cheek implant.I was never happy with it. It looks fake and way too big(xl). It makes me look fat. But I learned to live with it. fastforward to today. I really wanna Remove my implant but i am also scared of the saggy after the implant removal let alone my face was saggy to start with( genetic). So my question "is cheek implant removal and midface lift doable at the same time on a 26 years old?"

Thank you for your question. The numbness after a facelift typically resolves within 2-3 month of the procedure. Occasionally, the numbness can take up to a year to resolve.Best wishes!Dr. Konstantin
Usually sutures are removed 7-10 days after surgery, but in some cases they can be left in longer. You need to contact your physician’s office for clarification, but depending on the method of suturing, it is not necessarily too long. I assume your surgeon intended for this treatment plan.
Thank you for your question. A facelift alone will not improve your acne scars, but a skin resurfacing with Face Lift could be a good option for you.
