Anybody have a definitive answer?
As a plastic surgeon, I can provide you with an objective answer. Lower facelift is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the lower face, including the removal of excess skin, lifting the cheek and jawbones, and improving facial contour. However, like any surgical procedure, lower facelift also involves certain risks and complications.
Potential risks of lower facelift may include:
Infection: Any surgical procedure involves the risk of infection. To minimize this risk, it is important to ensure proper wound care and follow the surgeon's post-operative instructions.
Bleeding: Minor bleeding is common during and after surgery, but excessive bleeding may require additional treatment.
swelling and bruising: Swelling and bruising are normal after surgery, but they can last for several weeks to months.
Scarring: Although surgical incisions are designed to be as inconspicuous as possible, scarring is still a potential risk.
Nerve damage: There is a risk of nerve damage during surgery, which can result in numbness, weakness, or other complications.
Unsatisfactory results: Despite the best efforts of the surgeon, there is a possibility that the results of the lower facelift may not meet the patient's expectations.
It is important to note that these risks can be reduced by choosing an experienced and qualified plastic surgeon, having a detailed consultation before surgery, and following the surgeon's instructions during and after the procedure. Additionally, patients should have realistic expectations regarding the outcome of the surgery.
If you are considering lower facelift in Glasgow, I recommend consulting with multiple plastic surgeons to discuss your options and to better understand the procedure and its associated risks. A comprehensive evaluation of your individual health and suitability for the surgery is crucial to ensure a successful outcome.
