I had a deep plane face lift 9 weeks ago and although I look fine, the amount of numbing and tingling still present really bothers me. The worst areas are along my jaw line, behind my ears, and my upper cheek area under my eyes. I did not have my eyes done but I have dry eyes as a result of the face lift. Is all this normal? My doctor says to give it time. Does a deep plane lift take longer to heal? If so, what is the average waiting time? Will my face ever feel normal again? I'm scared.
