I have a white mark on my cheek almost 8 months after lower facelift that the surgeon says is not sure what it is but could possibly be a pressure wound? Immediately after the surgery it was red and almost looked almost like a burn but over the months has turned white and looks like a scar although the surgeon says he did not make any cuts there. Any idea on what this could be? It is very hard to cover up with makeup and after exercising or any redness to my face makes it even more noticeable.

Answer: White Mark on Face Good Morning! Sorry that you're having trouble with your facelift outcome. The white mark is certainly unusual. It could be scarring and thinning of the skin from possible excessive tension in the area or suture underneath. Options would be massaging and possible nanofat to the area. Nanofat provides stem cells and growth factors which help the skin heal. Sometimes, Morpheus can help to soften the scar at the area but an evaluation first would be needed. A last result would be cutting the scar or area out but that certainly isn't ideal. Hope this helps!

Answer: White mark on cheek 8 months after lower facelift- what it could be? Based on the posted photos you must have has a under dermal burn effect. This resulted in hypo pigmentation of the area. Not must to improve except some lasers (maybe but doubtful) or a light color matching tattooing.
