Do I need revision platysmaplasty 15 months after my lower facelift? (Photo)

July 26, 2019
Asked By:marenka in Seattle, WA

I had a lower facelift done 15 months ago. 8 months after the surgery I noticed that my platysmal bands are becoming visible again. I discussed this with my surgeon, he suggested Dysport treatment. It is only temporary and barely lasts 3 months. Also spending $300 every 3 months on injectables gets expensive. Should I ask the doctor to do the revision platysmaplasty? Should this be covered under the original facelift cost? I am unsure if there is any "warranty" when it comes to facelift surgery.
