I had a facelift neck lift eyelift 2 /12 weeks ago . I'm happy so far with my results but I have time yet I'm still very swollen . My only issue is this skin knot on my scalp where the stitches were . It has been hurting since day 1 and still now hurting . It starts there and travels to my left ear. It's a stabbing pain . What can this be .??

Answer: Bump It's from your scalp closure. It should dissipate with time, but if it is really bothering to you, speak with your surgeon as to his or her protocol for dealing with these kind of bumps. Massage can help. Sorry that you are experiencing this. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Contour irregularities in the scalp after a facelift. Due to swelling lumps and bumps in the scalp after a facelift are fairly common. Show this to your surgeon.

Answer: Facelift - Postop results That looks like the end of your closure which is a little bit bunched in to a dog ear and should resolve with time. Some times the tension can cause discomfort and a puling sensation. Massaging can be helpful to soften the scar. I would recommend that you follow-up with your surgeon as well. #PlasticSurgery #FaceLift #Recovery
