Why is it taking so long to heal after facelift? (Photo)

The recovery from a facelift varies from patient to patient. Some look and feel great 2 weeks after surgery, and others are bothered by lumps and bumps or changes in skin sensations for months after. As surgeons we can't predict who will heal quickly and who won't, and this can be frustrating for all of us. You are experiencing what is commonly known as "poor wound healing" and from your photos it looks like this will resolve on its own over time and look good when healed. Keep in touch with your surgeon and assess how the incisions look about 1 year after surgery. If you aren't happy with the way they look, you may be able to discuss scar revision with your surgeon.

Yes, you have a little delay in the healing. But it should end up being fine. I also like Aquaphor but you should listen to your surgeon's advice. Hang in there.
