I have necrotic skin due to a facelift. It’s been 2 years but the facelift left me worse of than before. I need a revision. A facial surgeon said that it can not be performed because the skin is dead and won’t hold the revision. Can I have a revision with this necrotic skin?

Answer: Secondary I do not believe that this will be an issue at all as long as it has been at least 1 year from the initial injury/surgery. I would find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. I always tell prospective patients to look at the plastic surgeon's training (ideally a 6 year integrated plastic surgery residency and a 1 year aesthetic fellowship accredited by The Aesthetic Society). In addition, examine before/after photos on social media platforms. I would also look at Google or RealSelf reviews. This will help you get a comprehensive understanding of your provider.

Answer: Can be done It is certainly possible that much of that scarred skin can be removed, and, it will leave you with a better appearance. However, we'd want to see an entire photo of your face.
