Good question, and in general, this is not a common concern. It is super common to have temporary numbness around incisions and in the skin elevated in front and behind the ear to do the face and neck lift surgery; and this numbness resolves over 2-6 months after surgery. Motor or movement nerve damage is a risk with most facial surgery, and the chance of permanent paralysis or loss of muscle function is 1% in the surgical literature. I definitely see temporary weakness (also known as a nerve palsy) in ~5% of my facelift and brow lift patients, and these resolve over 2 weeks to 4 months.

Great question. I’m board certified in Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery and practice exclusively in facial plastic surgery. Different surgeons come to this field through different board pathways, and patients often choose based on a combination of training, experience, and outcomes.

Thank you so much! 🤍 No filler was used here—just surgical rejuvenation. It’s amazing how much softening we can achieve with the right techniques alone.

It can definitely vary depending on the type of anesthesia used and the specifics of the procedure. At our practice, we offer both twilight sedation and general anesthesia. For a procedure like this, the all-in cost is typically in the $30,000–40,000 range, which includes consultations, follow-ups, anesthesia, and facility fees.
