I am 7 weeks after a comprehensive facelift. My earlobes look somehow strange. They were attached before but the earlobes were shorter and round. What I can I do to change their form?

Answer: Give yourself more to time to recover before deciding on revision. Judging by your pictures, you do appear to have some slight changes in the shape of your earlobes. However, seven weeks is still pretty early on in your recovery process. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can to do fix this issue other than time and healing. Most plastic surgeons recommend waiting 3 to 6 months before deciding on any type of revision. If by that time, if your ears are still having the mild pixie ear appearance, an in-office revision is usually enough to fix the issue. Contact your plastic surgeon so that they may examine and discuss your concerns and decide on a treatment plan if revisions are needed. Good luck Dr. E

Answer: 7 weeks post comprehensive facelift. Will this mild form of pixie ear improve without a revision? What can I do now? (photos) I would allow things to settle in for 12 weeks and see if there is some improvement. Keep in close contact with your surgeon so your progress can be carefully monitored.
