Nerve Damage After MACS Facelift 15 Months Ago?

April 4, 2013
Asked By:gjcolley

I have nerve damage on my left side of my upper lip when I talk and when I smile. When you look at me at rest I look perfectly fine. My main problem is when I speak, the right side of my mouth works perfectly fine, but the left side still moves but not as much as the right looking like I talk out of the side of my mouth. I had a MACS lift, brow lift, buccal fat removal on the left cheek. My PS has said that he has never seen this and is sending me to a Neurologist. Is this permanent?
