Numbing and Tingling After Deep Plane Face Lift?

This numbness will go away over the next few months. Your nerves grow about a mm a day in the best conditions. So you can see how it will take a while.

It is common for numbness to occur after a facelift. It can take a few weeks for numbness to go away, but sometimes it may take up to a year. Nerve regeneration will slowly occur over this time, allowing you to have sensation again, and this is associated with tingling.

There is a good reason most facelift surgeons do not use the deep plane technique: long recovery, increased complication rate, and many other negative factors. It is however a great technique in the right hands but losing popularity because other facelift procedures also give great results with less risk and morbidity. The tingling and numbness can occur after many different types of face lifts

An experienced facelift surgeon will let you know the best procedure for you.
