Topic: RE: Lower face/Neck lift- Before/ After

Hi, I still can not believe how incredible you look. I looked up your surgeon and saw the before and after photos and his work is amazing. Many people had skin resurfacing and stuff. Did you have anything like that.

Thank you to all who take the time to share and give me advice.

Pain wise it was much easier.

You did have to wear arm compression- so I would try to do it the beginning of summer. You have to wear them a month and they are hot.

And I really did need to keep my arms elevated as much as possible or I got terrible swelling. Sometimes I would be on laptop and only have one arm elevated and the one I was using got swollen.

Overall highly recommend!

How was your experience with the arm lift? I may do that next summer, again with Dr. Michaels.

Documenting the skin infections should help a lot. Please keep us updated. I have my fingers crossed and sending good vibes for your insurance approval.

I rarely look at the plastic surgery board, so just saw this today when it became a featured post.

What a great experience you had. I had a consultation with Dr. Michaels twenty years ago when I was working in Rockville, MD. He was about 30 years old then and just getting his practice started. I was so impressed with his enthusiasm to be the best plastic surgeon ever.

Then he was quietly doing wonderful work on celebrities and already in demand in the DC area.

I compare plastic surgery to buying a car. It is expensive but something that really changes your life. And a car wears out and has to be replaced, but your new body will be yours for life.

In one book that I read while preparing for surgery, there was a quote, "Weight loss surgery gave me back my health and plastic surgery gave me back my self esteem".

Thanks for sharing your story.

I'm beyond excited I'm praying my insurance will cover the necessary surgery. I'm 4 years post op from vsg and have struggled some but I'm determined to stay focused and get it done I'm sick and tired of skin infections and such.
