How Should I Look 2 Weeks After Lower Facelift / Neck Lift?

parts of your ear will be numb

skin of your neck and sides of the face can be numb

your neck skin should be tight

there may be some swelling

brusing may be mostly gone


Talk to your surgeon about your concerns. A lot depends on the specific technique he used. Saggy skin under the chin will likely not improve but get worse over the next 3 months.

While you may still have some swelling two weeks after a facelift I would not expect saggy skin or a greater contour defect than prior to surgery.  I would recommend seeing your surgeon for a discussion.  The numbness is normal at this point.

There are some healing variations from patient to patient.  However, from what you are describing, it sounds like it would be best to talk to your surgeon directly.  You would want to ask them if this type of change is normal for them following neck lift.   The numbness is normal and will resolve in several months.  Good Luck.
