Nerve : There are many potential reasons for this which may or may not be related to your facelift surgery. If related to the facelift, it could take up to 2 years to resolve. However other causes should be evaluated prior to that. I would discuss your symptoms with your surgeon who may perform an examination.

See a neurologist: Tingling in the tongue is unusual. See a neurologist for a thorough exam.

Neurologist: It would be unusual to be related to the facelift but possible that there was never injury. See a neurologist to pinpoint injury. It may be something totally unrelated.

New issue: I agree it is probably a coincidence that this symptom developed at the time of facelift. I would see a neurologist.

Apologies because I know this is not exactly clinical but I felt a pop in my head, almost like a twig snapping, followed by a tingling sensation like pop rocks or sand in my mouth that went away after a moment. Any ideas? No pain from it but scary.
