Hello,The presence of pleating in the malar area following a facelift can be an interesting occurrence. While pleating behind the ears typically resolves over time, pleating in the malar area may persist and require further discussion regarding resolution and potential revision.
It appears that the vector of skin pull might've been a little bit off as well as the fact that your surgeon did not excise enough of the skin (it looks like the skin excision stops at the base of your temporal tuft but for this amount of excess, you need to chase it up higher in the temple).

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. From the photos, it appears that a revision facelift could potentially help, but it's crucial to understand what areas were addressed in the initial procedure. Since your head is down in the photos, it's challenging to assess your skin's condition...
