How long for prominent platysma muscles and scar tissue to abate? 6 months post Face lift. (photos)
8821rlSep 26, 2016
I had a smas facelift (no liposuction) in March. After 6 months, I suffer from prominent platysma neck bands, tightness, and a shrink wrap feeling of the skin in the neck. I had none of these issues before facelift. PS says this is induration, that the muscles and skin are remodeling which will resolve on its own over time. It seems to be getting worse- not better. PS says that he did not cut any of the platysma muscles so the tightening is due to inflammation or scar tissue. Thoughts or advice?
