Do you think my post facelift earlobe can be improved? (Photo)

This can be easily repaired in the office using local anesthesia. 20 minutes.
It's totally okay to want -- and expect -- an A+ result. Your surgeon should do this for free.

Your earlobe can be improved. It appears that it has been pulled and the incision is sitting slightly in front of the earlobe itself. If you're happy with the facelift result, then a focused procedure called a V to Y advancement can be performed to release and lift and detach the earlobe. This is straight forward and performed in the office under local anesthesia. Best.

Thank you for your question and pictures. Yes, the scars can be improved. Time will improve scars specially if they are still red which means they have not completed the remodeling phase of wound healing. Easiest way to improve this scar would be steroid injection into the scar. Other methods are microneedling or laser treatment of the scar. Revision surgery is the last option. I would recommend you to follow up with your surgeon to discuss your options for scar improvement.

Thankyou for your query. The appearance of your earlobe, after your face-lift surgery, can certainly be improved. It is a fairly short procedure under local anesthesia. Please discuss this with your surgeon who can help you. All the best!

I presume you have more of a problem with the earlobe that has an "extra" nubbin of skin at its attachment to the side of your cheek. Based on your photo, I think your surgeon should be able to trim that down so that the earlobe joins the side of your cheek like the opposite one. Although the two lobes may never look exactly alike, they should be able to look more similar. It is a simple procedure just using local anesthetic.

The attachment of the earlobe is elongated following your surgery. This can easily be corrected with a small procedure under local anesthesia. Discuss your concerns with your surgeon and show him these photos. As far as the scars, these can be improved with a CO2 laser.

Your scars are fresh and you should not judge your result based on current scars; they will improve. However, one stretched earlobe can be improved in local anesthesia any time when it is convenient to you and your surgeon. Good luck.

Look at my Instagram account ronald.edelson where I show multiple cases where I have corrected earlobe deformities from facelifts. It’s simple to do IF the surgeon knows how. Yours isn’t nearly as bad as many I have seen

It would be very helpful if you could describe what each picture represents.
I think there’s room for a slight improvement based on the first picture.
