Posted under Cheek Lift q&a

Post percuntaneous suture loop cheek lift, I have contour irregularities. How long before I should consider revision?

meow1978
I had a percuntaneous sutureloop cheeklift a few weeks ago and am wondering if the issues do not resolve how long to wait for revision. The loop has created contour irregularities on one side, aswell as no lift, and even bigger n/l than before, that is wavy when I smile, my smile is also abit lopsided. Would it be best to remove sutures now or wait 3 months? After sutures have been removed how long should I wait to redo? Can I have to sutures removed sooner and then redo at a later date?
