brow/neck/lower face lift - Day 13 PICS
Pics are on my profile (open to all). Overally I'm happy, especially with the brow lift. I'm still pretty swollen in the jaw/chin - it is hard to the touch there. PS says can take a few weeks to resolve the swelling. Even there, though, it is a big improvement. Before I had a huge turkey waddle - now with the swelling it looks like a little chubby *****which is an improvement), and I know as the swelling goes it is just going to continue to improve.
Wow!! That is AMAZING! You have every reason to be happy, you look at least 10 years younger!! You're making ME want a face lift!! Where were the incisions?

Thanks! The incisions go from sideburns around (and into) the ears and around the back of the ears and then along the hairline for a few inches. I was prepared for the long incisions - ahead of time the PS told me I had a lot of skin on the neck and he would have to continue down in back a little farther than normal to get a good result. He took over an inch off of each side. Also, there's an incision under my chin. It has completely healed and is almost totally flat.
Thank you! I am tremendously happy. I was so nervous about having my face touched (you know - good plastic surgery is great, but when a face lift isn't good it really isn't good). But, I did my homework to choose the surgeon, said a prayer ("Please dear Lord don't let me look weird at the end of this!") and it all was just fine. I did the face first because it was the one thing I couldn't hide. My breasts get a lot of help from a good bra, Spanx sucks in the tummy, sleeves cover the upper arms, but there was no hiding that turkey waddle!
