I am 62 and was tired of doing the Radiesse to take care of my little 'jowlettes'. I felt I was wasting my money as I metabolized it too quickly. My doctor said I looked good, no facelift needed, but my neck was aging me. I finally had some time to do the necklift and had it done 8 days ago.

I felt fine by the 3rd day and am wearing my compression garmet for the next few weeks. Not the most fun but it has to be done to ensure a great long-lasting result. I am feeling very good about the outcome. My doctor is the best! He also tightened my jawline and my little 'jowlettes' are gone!!! From what can see right now I am very pleased and can't wait until completely healed. His staff is wonderful and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Pichler.

All I can say is I am in good hands with Dr. Pichler and his staff, Rita, JoAnn and Kathy. Very caring, professional, and helpful. I will post some before and after photos when I am done with the compression garmet.

Do you feel like you still have a bit of jowling, or is that just shadows from the pic?

I can't see much change. Why are you bruised in your chest?

Good results......Tell us about the incisions (scars) under your chin and behind the ears. How do these look now? (Remind us of your surgery date, please) THX
