6 months after facelift - will the dent and horizontal line resolve? (photo)

Question

I had a neck lift six months ago and have a weird dent under my chin on one side and a deep strange horizontal line on one side. Any ideas of if this will resolve?

Andrew Bonett, MD · Answer

6 months after a face or neck lift, most of these irregularities that would be self-resolving would typically have done so by now. Sometimes massage can help, but assuming you have already tried massaging the scar, there is a good chance it won't improve until it is released surgically. Based on the location, it might be accessible by using an incision concealed under the chin instead of opening up the whole facelift incision again.
