Never say never
I really thought that I could 'fix' my face with fillers (juvederm etc.) but I finally recognize that I need a facelift plus. It is not only time, it is past time. I am 23 months out from my DS, down 115 lbs and READY.
I am working on getting scheduled with Dr S for this summer. I'm scared ( of a lot of different things ) but hopeful that my new face will be a friendly face and make people feel that I am approachable.
Any tips are very welcome. I'll be going to MX alone.

I had three proceedures done with him last summer, and went alone. You will be fine. Ask him to book you when others are there. The first time I was alone as he was leaving on vacation and didn't want to leave me behind alone. The second time I had someone... it was better. You will be fine, think you said only face right? you will do fine :)

I remember before my DS, a coworker said, you're going to lose weight then need/want PS. Said, nope just want my diabetes gone... Fast forward 3+ years, and diabetes is gone, and all my extra skin too.
I was only planning on the LBL & BL, but after see Dr S in SF last Aug, I asked about my arms, and a medial thigh lift. Then I said what about this turkey neck, he said he could fix that too. Then pointed to the fatty under eyes and the upper lids... he said a full facelift. I was 58. Just before my facelift, he said he wouldn't make me scary, and he didn't. I do love my new neck and face, but they come after the new bewbies they are still #1!
I did go to Monterrey by myself, but Tom was there too. He had surgery on Tue & Sat and me Thur & Mon. You'll do fine on your own.
