My neck is really stiff 4 months after Facelift, is this normal?

Having next stiffness four months after a facelift is a bit unusual. It sounds like you've done all the things that you can to alleviate the symptoms and the problem. At this point I would recommend physical therapy. Also possible evaluation buy a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician.Earl Stephenson, Jr, MD, DDS,FACS

To best answer this question you should be examined in person. There are several reasons that you may feel stiff.  Numbness of the neck after surgery alone can give one the perception of stiffness. This can take 6 months are greater to improve. Also, some people subconsciously reduce the amount that they move their neck after surgery, which can lead to stiffness in that area.  Other reasons are possible as well but an examination would be necessary. Discuss your issue with your surgeon.

Most patients are no longer complaining of neck tightness after 4 months but occassionaly it occurs. Massage and stretching exercises sometimes helps especially if there is a spasm component. See your plastic surgeon  for his opinion as he/she would be the most knowledgible of your procedure and what to expect.
