Results
This procedure can provide excellent results. Facial skin and contours will look more youthful, smoother and firmer. There will be inevitable neck and facial bruising and swelling. After initial swelling has settled down, subtle improvements to the contour of the newly shaped face and neck area will take place for up to six months following surgery.
Patients usually describe the way they feel as 'tight and uncomfortable'. Clips and sutures are removed 7 - 14 days after surgery. Most surgeons firmly bandage the face and jaw area for the first 48 hours to help reduce facial discomfort.
