Complete process for me

I had wanted the double chin to be gone since I was 22… however, I waited a bit to long for a smaller surgery… My doctor was willing to work to try to match my desires with the less is more approach, and I am truly grateful. I sought several different opinions and got a variety of prices and suggestions. Some were inclusive of work I was NOT wanting. - Blepharoplasty or removal of glands etc.
Doc did a platysmaplasty and micro sal lipo to begin with. Had some scarring areas (not keloids) and spots (hardened spots) we needed to redress and did them 4 months later after some healing. I was not fully satisfied with MY results after this redress and we discussed options. I opted for full neck and partial/ lower facelift with fat transfer.

First surgery was $9,000

Scar revision (my choice for surgery center and anesthesia vs in office of NO Charge) $1800

Full neck / lower face / fat transfer $15,000

I am glad it was this way. Although it took “2 years” per real self- I am 9 months post the largest surgery and I feel thankful for the outcome.

Everyone has their own process and outcome. Do your diligence on surgery and surgeons. You see them a lot and occasionally you will need a tweak.
Their staff and their demeanor along with their skill are so important.
I highly recommend Dr Maffi, Sunshine and all at Maffi clinic. They were patient, encouraging and excited for my outcome.

9 months post lower face + neck lift

As the facial swelling goes down, I started to see myself - PLUS the tightness and numbness I felt under my chin and jaw subsided and made me feel less conscious. I wanted to upload more pics- but somehow they are too large. I will be doing a very small 1-2 mm tattoo to mask a small scar over the right ear. I like wearing my hair up, and I feel confident to do so!
Highly recommend doing what you feel you want to- it’s no different than braces, coloring your hair etc.
Be prepared for a little bit of changing and settling.
Best of health to you!

Update. 9 months post Op

They say you start to see the REAL results 6-12 months later. Remember I had the neck lipo and platysmaplasty and I wanted better results so I opted for redo- and full lower face and neck.

By taking selfie’s as you go, you can see the changes. I have a light scar around my front of my ear (one side) that I will tattoo to match skin tone. Overall- very happy - would recommend.
Somehow I can’t get more pics to download-
