Bad Face-Lifts - Cosmetic Complications

What could be worse than opting for cosmetic surgery to heighten your appearance only to have it turn into a nightmare? This happens every day in the cosmetic surgery world but is not often talked about. There are risks involved in getting face-lifts and there are so-called "cosmetic surgeons" who should not be practicing at all.

Some celebrities have had bad face-lifts. Most of these consist of too much tightening of the skin. William Shatner, Barry Manilow and Burt Reynolds have all had face-lifts that are too sure and way too tight.

BAD

Sometimes a slight too much of the skin is stretched. When this happens, a someone ends up seeing drastically different than they should. It doesn't make a someone look younger. Instead, it makes them look like they had a bad face-lift. A bad face-lift can precisely make you appear older than you are. Before you get a face-lift, there are some leading complications and inherent outcomes you should know about.

Some of the complications that may occur from having a face-lift can leave a someone with such cosmetic problems as:

An abnormally contoured face - where one side of the face is higher or more pronounced than the other.
An attached earlobe - that is, the lobe itself "melds" with the face
Obvious Scarring (there is all the time scarring, but it is regularly not visible)
Discoloration of the face
Paralysis of the face
Damaged nerves - This can cause the skin to sag.
Skin Necrosis (dead skin) - this must be removed and causes permanent scarring. Skin grafts may have to be applied if this occurs.

While these complications are rare if you have a good surgeon, they do happen and should be thought about before opting for surgery.

Alternatives to former face-lifts can sacrifice and even negate the chances of having these types of problems. Such alternatives comprise ThreadLifts, Laser Resurfacing and the ThermaCool Facelift. The results are not as dramatic with these types of lifts, but can give your skin a younger appearance without the whole of risk to your appearance. Let's face it - less dramatic results are good than bad results when it comes to the first thing habitancy observation about us - our face.
