Is increased stinging and cold sensation throughout face normal 4.5 months after a facelift and upper eye lid surgery?

September 9, 2018
Asked By:LVance1 in Winter Park, FL

I had a standard rhytidectomy, including the tightening of the underlying fascia and muscle and upper blepharoplasty 4.5 months ago. The board certified PS also injected some fat from my neck into the face. I have been experiencing a sensation of coldness (not to the touch of others, though), increased stinging throughout my cheeks, and a tight rubber band-like feeling under my chin and around the ears. Recently, I developed ringing in my ears and it feels like there is a stick in one. Please advise.
