IS TIGHTNESS NORMAL AFTER A FACELIFT?
Question:
I just got a facelift a week ago. My face feels very tight and I feel like if I move it, it will rip or something. I’m afraid my surgeon may have over tightened the skin! Is there any way some of the tightness can be let out with another surgery?
Answer:
I’m sure that over time, the feeling of tightness will resolve. Occasionally, a patient of mine will complain of this early during the post-op period, but it has always resolved.
