Revision Surgery

Facial procedures are probably the most delicate procedures in plastic surgery as their results are visible and difficult to hide. It is important to have results which help you look much younger without the typical signs of bad plastic surgery. Outcome of any surgery depends on the expertise of the surgeon as well as your particular genetics and skin / tissue material with which the plastic surgeon has to work with. The best techniques on patients with poor scar forming tendencies will still result in poor scars. So anticipating less than perfect results, though often impossible, is the part of the art in plastic surgery.

Many men and women have come to us for revision of their facial procedures. Typical concerns include poor scarring on the face and behind the ears, earlobes that are excessively pulled down (pixie ears), unnatural look, lack of longevity of the results, insufficient pulling, or poor contour to the face and neck. All of these concerns can be improved significantly with revision surgery. We will plan your next surgery paying particular attention to your facial structure, genetic scar forming capacity, skin elasticity, and facial hair pattern among other variables to ensure the best possible results. It will be more difficult than getting it right the first time, but the close attention to detail all of our patients regularly receive will minimize any chance of a recurrent problem.
