And still more ear scarring
$13,500
I am 16 months out from my facelift and the scarring behind my ears is still painful, ugly and growing. Took this picture this morning. He promised the scars would be so teeny and hidden behind the earlobe. Right

Still have terrible ropey scarring behind my ears- it's even visible from the front. I wonder if it will ever go away. Both sides are bad. Also the scar under my chin is visible from the front because it's so thick!

I'm so sorry to hear you had to go through so much suffering.
Constant infections sound so scary and awful.
That being said- you look AMAZING. You already looked younger than 49 and had amazing skin but now you look like you're in your early 30's. Incredible!

I just found your review. I hope all is well. You should have been on an antibiotic from the beginning. Via an IV and then oral medication. All preventative. I can not believe the indifference shown by the doctor. Best wishes.

Thanks for ur comment. My ears are severely scarred. The scars go all around my earlobe and are visible from the front. I went to another Dr for revision and he said my scars are still so inflamed that I have to wait at least another 6 months at least

my neck is somewhat better- the scars behind my ears have grown in front of my ears now tho. Am looking at having revision work . =(

I have a scar under my left ear lobe. You cannot really see it but I can feel it. I am massaging it madly. How successfully can they revise them?

Rosie, thank you so much for sharing your story and for allowing us to learn from your journey. I'm sorry about the challenges; I hope things get resolved and you're feeling 100% better about the whole experience soon. Why I'm really writing though is to say that you look fantastic! Wow. You look like you're in your late 20s, which I think is such a great looking and all around age for women. Thank you. You're beautiful.

Starting to feel more like me again although still tightness in face and swelling in neck. Ears are healing but still very angry looking. Finally went to get my roots colored yesterday. Hairdresser made a part in my hair and knocked off a big scab and there was bleeding ????. He was great tho put some Vaseline on a q tip and cleaned it up.

You look beautiful. I thought you looked young for your age in your before pictures but now you just look young!
I'm also having a harder time healing and am putting it down to being around second hand smoke for 8 hours a day at my job in a casino. Slowly getting better! Time and patience are our friends.
