I had a mini facelift with SMAS in March of 2000 and since then developed pixie ears both sides, which my plastic surgeon promised to fix, but later changed his mind. I have to find a surgeon who can redo he facelift and fix pixie ears. Do I need to look for a surgeon who specializes in revisions? Thank you!

Answer: Facelift It’s truly amazing to me that so many surgeons don’t know how to prevent or fix pixie ears. It’s really simple if the surgeon knows how and that that a big IF. Search for a surgeon who can show photos of pixie ears they have fixed and who has a solid plan. I have three before and afters on my IG showing how it’s done.

Answer: Revision Facelift and Pixie ear deformity If you had a mini facelift in 2000 you are probably due for another facelift. If it was a mini facelift then most of the planes of dissection that are entered in a sub SMAS or deep plane facelift have not been violated and the revision surgery should not be terribly complex. Fixing the Pixie ear deformity will be a great deal easier after some the soft tissue in your neck and face is recruited to relieve the tension in the skin around your ear lobe which caused the Pixie ear deformity in the first place.
