I had a full face lift in August 2016 and September its sagging and getting worse. Dr. did a full face lift and its falling and I look awful. What do I need to do to fix it and how long do I need to wait?
Answer: Face Sagging? Thank you for your question.I'm sorry that you aren't happy with your results. Even though you aren't happy, it's best to go back to your surgeon to voice your concerns and let them see the results. They will be able to offer recommendations on what to do next. If you don't like the recommendations, or don't feel comfortable with more treatment from that doctor, you are always entitled to go elsewhere. Still, it's always best to start the conversation with your own surgeon.Best,Dr. Michael EpsteinMAE Plastic SurgeryNorthbrook, IL

Answer: Facelift Question Thank you for your question. I am sorry that you have had this experience with your facelift. I would be sure to discuss your concerns with your surgeon. From your pictures, you do still have some swelling left after surgery. I can take anywhere from 6 months to 1 year for all swelling to subside. If you are still unhappy with your results, I would conult with a board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon, who specializes in facelifts. I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin
