Botched facelift? How can this be fixed? (Photo)

Asked By:MeUCantSee in San Francisco, California

I had a SMAS facelift 6 months ago. Pretty much immediately after surgery, I noticed one side looked very different from the other. There is an indentation and hollowness immediately under the cheekbone which makes my cheek bone look sharp and protruding. What happened here? Was a retaining ligament cut? How can this be fixed? Please do advise. I’m incredibly disappointed and frustrated by my results from a supposedly world renown facelift surgeon.
