Two Weeks after Eye and Facelift!
I am thrilled with my results! I still have some swelling! But I have to say, it's been a painful procedure, but so worth it! I have no more turkey gobbler and my chin line is exactly what I wanted! I'm still sleeping with my head garment and my ears are still healing. talking on the phone isn't comfortable, but I know it will get better!

I told Dr S, Laura, don't make me into a clown! He laughed and said, "No, I want you to be my advertisement!" My befores are quite bad. I always forced myself to smile really big and placed my chin out more so that my pictures never reflected how bad it was. But I did take some befores where I was natural and the difference is astonishing!

Dee, you are a ROCK STAR! You don't know me , but I've been following your journey....I am completely fascinated by your story; every day I look forward to new posts from you (I just realized that might sound a little...stalker-y) . Anyway, how awesome are YOU to have lost over 300 pounds and make your dreams a reality?!! Pretty FREAKIN' awesome! I had VSG a little over 9 months ago, and I've lost 157 pounds, with about 65 more to go. I too was a pretty big girl, and I have bunches of excess skin that will have to be removed. You completely inspire me...reading your posts gives me hope and makes me excited for all the great things ahead. I just wanted to let you know how great I think you are. As I get closer to goal, I'd love to talk with you more about Dr. Sauceda and various procedures ...I'd love your input on how to approach my plan of attack. :)
