I had a facelift two years ago and and I am left with a verticle type dent (not a diagonal cross dent toward my ear). I would like to know what caused it, what it is, and how it should be treated. Thank you.
Almost 1 yr post deep plane face/necklift, I have numbness and irritation around my ears and sides of face still. I also noticed changes in my skin, its rougher textured and has a very red mottled appearance which is definitely unusual for me. I was wondering if nerve damage is affecting my skin quality, and if it would be beneficial to use a TENS machine? I also have quite a bit of inflammation and pain still. Thanks.
One year after my terrible facelift I had my ears done just 3 weeks ago. The (another) surgeon undermined a few centimetres, cut out the scars and my pixie ear, fixed the layers separatly (also to the cartridge to minimise pulling) and it all looked great for the first two weeks... But now, in week 3-4 it started to change exactly like the last time :((( tearing marks are coming out.. What should I do to minimise that? Massage? Taping? Another face lift? When? Please help me, I am so depressed.
I am 11 months postop. 53 years old. Overall happy with my facelift minus whats going on behind my ears. I thought it would go away, but Im thinking now Im stuck with it. What can I do to reduce the redness?
I see so many questions posed about scars and lower facelift. I know most doctors on here are incredible and perform perfect incisions... but, can I honestly expect some faint white lines around my ears and lower part of sideburns? Will someone who is close enough see the faint scars? Doctors I have consulted are experienced and all say they perform wonderful impeccable incisions. I'm fare and always have faint white lines after incisions.
Hello, I had a full facelift, brow lift, fat graft, lipo in my chin. It is almost 13 months post op and I am still tight around my chin and ears and numb all over my face, chin and ears. I look great but worried that tightness and numbness will never go away. Please tell me if I can do anything to help the heeling. Thank you very much.
A mini face lift has left me with scarring. Flat, white and wide in my hair line,jn front of and behind do my eats. I cannot wear my hair up or put my hair behind my ears ad they are very visable. Why has this happened?
I had two previous facelift procedures done (one in1998, incluiding a coronal brow lift, and a second one in 2002) with the same Dr. Excellent results with no scarring. In april 2014 had a third and deeper one (face SMAS, neck and endoscopic browlift) with different Dr. This time results are not so impressive. Endoscopic eyebrow lift dissapointing compared to coronal. Healing process was long with severe bruising (3 nights in hospital). Concerned about front scar on left ear. What can be done?
Had facelift 5 weeks ago in another country. Scars I front of and behind ears. Told no sutures to be removed. Noticed very painful behind one ear in the area top of ear where my glasses touch. Close inspection shows an inflammed hole with a wire type of suture sticking out quite sharp and possibly another blue suture same hole. Cannot go back to surgeon as too far away. I think it might be a permanent deep suture and if this is the case will it be there forever irritating my skin? Other side is ok.
