I had a rhytidectomy 1.5 years ago. I still have extreme pulling on my right side. My PS had me go to a neurologist. After a lecture by this doctor for having a facelift, he prescribed Lyrica 3 months ago. It has done very little to help my problem. Chewing gum seems to help. What else can I do?

Answer: Pulling Sensation from Face Lift Pulling is not a common symptom of nerve injury. Motor nerve problems cause weakness or paralysis, and sensory nerve injury causes numbness, pain, or other bothersome sensory feelings.If it is because the lift was too tight on one side, this generally improves with time.

Answer: Facelift - pulling sensation Hello,Your pulling sensation may not be related to a nerve injury. How someone feels and the prescription of Lyrica also lend towards this thought. Chewing gum may be a sensory distraction but probably does not provide lasting improvement. Bio feedback, neurrontin and massage therapy may be considered.
