I know it sucks, but that is well known if someone’s got problem, would like to hear how someone else deal with the same. Mine problem is swelling that is really hard in the jowl area. I have noticed this side effect, beside some more after I had face lift recovery. I would like to know if there is someone who is recovering too or has been recovered of face lift. I would like to hear some advice how to make these side effects of this surgery easier.

I think that I can relate to what you are going through, since I had face lift few years ago. I think mine was even scarier, because I have done facelift, neck lift, chin/neck liposuction and upper eyelid lift. I hated to feel that hardness and lumps under the skin. I had the greatest problems with jowl area and near my ears and cheeks. I have to disappoint you and say it could take even few months to become soft again. But I could say there is something which could make it easier to you. Try with gently massage of these areas, especially when you are in the shower or putting on some moisturizer. Also try with normal turning of the head and face expressions, which helped me to become smooth and soft. My doctor told me it is possible even to takes up to one year to fully heal after face lift. I really hope you will go fast through this recovery period and you will be happy with your look when all that passes.

| I had a Face lift/neck lift 1 month ago...doing well but I was wondering about my under chin area...I had a incision there...as well as around both ears...the ears are doing perfect...the chin has a lot of scar tissue...I am having ultra sound treatments to soften them but ...so far not much difference. (six treatments) anyone else had this problem? and if so did the scar tissue/swelling ever go away? ( in my fourties) Thank you |

| Hi, I noticed your posts on facelift swelling. I am the nurse/office manager at a plastic surgeon's office and we began using a product called the AqueCool by a company called Aqueduct Medical about 6 months ago. It's a cooling masque that applies constant cooling, and let me tell you, the difference it makes with the facial surgical patients is remarkable. Much less swelling and bruising, and the masks are very soothing. Patients feel much less pain and discomfort, and use much less, if any, pain meds. At first I was skeptical, but I can tell you from 1st hand experience, the AqueCool works. Patients recover in half the time. |
