After 4 weeks of my facelift my jowls slowly started to pop back out. Now not as bad as before but the side that was worse (left side) is really embarrassing me again. The PS insisted a FL would address my jowls. But it hasnt. The procedure was SMAS plication. With neck lift which part was very successful. Do I need another facelift. How can this be corrected. As the FL was very invasive and painful with recovery not easy.
I had a facelift last May. I am not happy with the outcome. During my consultation I specifically told him I wanted help with my jaw line, my jowls, and around my mouth. There is still a a lot of hanging. I really do not see a difference. My doctor said he is happy with the results there is a big difference. I have complained for a a while. And now he is saying he can do a tuck which is just the skin.
My surgeon suggested the Ellevate procedure to rectify facelift problems but it doesnt appear to have made any difference! Help I had a facelift in January 2019 and after a year my jowls and neckline still appeared to be sagging and I had banding from my chin to neck. My surgeon suggested Ellevate which I did in January this year but as far as I can see there is no difference on the before and after photos. Can you please give me your thoughts as I dont feel that I have had value for money as apart from now having one band instead of two, there is very little difference. I feel this isnt the end result I was promised.
I got a lower facelift/necklift in 2018 when I was 40. It looked great but now my neck skin has started to get crepey and my jowls are starting to become noticeable. Do you think I can delay a revision get a deep plane lift for a few years and until then maybe use facetite and like Morpheus8? Please excuse my dry skin in the photos(retinol).
I had a lower blepharoplasty w/ tear through implants in 2022 and a lower facelift in May 2023. I wanted to get the facelift to specifically get rid of the wrinkles around my mouth. Jowls. I am not happy with my relults. My lower face on the sides of my mouuth now look like a small circle pouch or something. What can I do? Thank you. What do you think was done wrong that I have this issue?
I had a mini facelift 2 years ago and do not think the outcome was successful. The areas of concern were my jowls, jawline, nasobilial folds, double chin, which from our pre-op appts and from other patient photos, he showed me that all of those areas will be improved. I have attached the doctors pre-op photos, 4 months post op, and my photos. He has said that the outcome of my surgery is great but I disagree. I also have tingling and sensory changes from my cheekbone to my ear. Please advise.
I had a facelift and supposedly, a necklift about two months ago. The surgeon did not through an incision under the chin. After surgery, I felt a hard and sore bunching at both sides of my neck, behind ears and slightly below on my neck. This hard tissue that bulged out of neck eventually relaxed a littlebut now it has turned into thick pleats and folds. Is this normal? Ive never seen this on someones facelift before? It looks awful. Is this a sign of a poorly executed necklift/ facelift?
Had a full facelift 1 yr ago. Jowls returned so Dr agreed to lower facelift revision at no cost after 1yrs time. Had procedure, local anesthesia, didnt feel pain but could feel pulling. Excruciating pain after, a few days only. Day one I looked GREAT! But a little after a week, noticed jawline softening and jowls returning. I am devastated. Dr suggested could be swelling, have to wait. Wonderfully Skilled surgeon in major US city. Pic 1+2 are 1st day. Why is this happening?
