Facelift Revision

Facelift revision (secondary or corrective facelift) refines or corrects the results of a prior facelift. Surgeons address concerns like recurrent jowling/neck laxity, banding, visible scars, earlobe “pixie ear” deformity, or asymmetry—often combining deeper tissue repositioning with selective scar revision and fat grafting for balance.

About Facelift Revision

A corrective procedure to refine results after a previous facelift—addressing issues such as under-correction/relapse, banding, visible scarring, asymmetry, or earlobe shape—by re-elevating and balancing deeper tissues and improving scars/earlobe position as needed.

Healthy adults unhappy with prior results or seeing recurrent laxity, with realistic expectations and stable health/weight. If significant skin laxity or volume loss exists, your surgeon may pair revision with skin-tightening or fat grafting for best definition.

Revisions are more complex. Prior surgery creates scar tissue and can alter tissue planes, so surgeons often modify technique and proceed more cautiously to protect small nerve branches and improve contour. Experience in revision cases is important.

Most surgeons advise waiting at least 6–12 months to let swelling resolve and tissues settle; some recommend 12–18 months for a fully stable canvas—timing is individualized to your concern and healing.

Depending on your anatomy and prior surgery: SMAS/deep-plane adjustments, fat grafting to restore volume, scar and earlobe (pixie ear) correction, and occasional skin/neck work to rebalance the jawline–neck angle.

Plan on ~2–4+ hours; complex cases (or combined procedures) can run longer. Factors include scar tissue, the extent of correction, and whether volume work or neck refinement is added.

Swelling, bruising, numbness, firmness, asymmetry, contour irregularities, hematoma, infection, and scar issues can occur. In revisions, scar tissue and any prior biostimulator fillers or energy-device treatments can complicate dissection and raise the risk of small nerve injury—full treatment history disclosure is essential.

Fees vary widely with surgeon expertise, city, operating time, and the complexity of correction. For context, Canadian clinics list primary facelift ranges from roughly ~$13,500–$30,000+ CAD (some higher), and revision procedures are often higher due to added complexity and time.
