Posted 7 Oct 2010

As I approached my 60th birthday I made the decision that I wanted to have a facelift, I wanted to look as young as I felt. This is a difficult decision because some results I have seen look so unnatural. I was afraid I might end up with a pulled look, like so many movie stars I have seen and they can afford to go to any surgeon! But I was referred by a friend who had her facelift done by Dr. D and she looked great. After my initial consultation, I knew I had found my surgeon! Dr. D spent a lot of time explaining what he recommended and how he would do it.

My results were excellent, better than I had hoped for. I am thrilled and so is my husband!

My Doctor: Miguel Delgado, Jr., MD

My rating:

Dr. D is not only an excellent surgeon, he takes his time to evaluate a patient to be sure he understands what their goals are and what a realistic expectation would be. His manner is very personable and as a patient I felt very comfortable.

Do you have pictures? How long was your recovery time?

I was back to work in two weeks, I still had some swelling but it was very minor and the little bit of bruising left I could cover with makeup. I will try to post pictures.

Thanks to all of you, I really appreciate it! And of course I really appreciate Dr. Delgado!! If you are someone trying to decide if you want the surgery, I promise you will never regret it...but if you don't, you may end up saying "wish I did it when I could have!"

You look great. Congratulations. I had a facelift and fat transfer a year ago. I love the results. I have also been very happy. It is one of the best decisions that I have ever made.

Hi Misty:
Thanks for your comment, I recently traveled out of the country and on my return, the US immigration guy looked at my passport (noting my age)and looked at me and said Wow, you look great :)
The facelift, the gift that keeps on giving!!!
Misty H. (RealFriend) 12 Apr 2011
Wow, J Louise that is a great compliment. I do agree a facelift is indeed the gift that keeps on giving. I love it when I see people that I haven't seen in a while. They say "you look great" and then they pause and say "you really do". I can see their mind wondering what's different. They ask if I have done my hair different. Congratulations...keep enjoying the results.
