Asked By:Wednesday321 in Wisconsin

Hello I had a mini lift 7 months ago. Unfortunately it did not help the laxity under my chin/upper neck. My incisions are still red and thick. They don’t follow the natural contour of the ears like in the photos I see online. Especially my left ear, the incision is like an inch out from my ear. I am extremely regretful I had the procedure and now have to live with theee scars. The doctor that did the procedure said everything looks normal. What can I do to help these scars? Will they lighten?
