Am I a candidate for a facelift after radiation therapy to head & neck 2016? (Photos)

I underwent radiation therapy to the head and neck in 2016. As a result, the right side of my face, from the jawline up, shows prominent vein protrusion and is unsightly. If I pull the skin back to my ear it makes a big improvement, essentially hiding the veins. Am I a candidate for this type of procedure given my history. My neck is significantly fibrotic but I'm hoping it won't be an issue.
