WORTH IT

My jawline was beginning to sag, and I wanted to lift and tighten it. I decided to have a facelift and necklift after being fortunate enough to find a surgeon that I had complete trust in. It was a big decision, but after he performed eyelid surgery on me, and I saw other work he had done, I was confident that he would give me a natural look, and I wouldn't wake up with any surprises. I never would have had the courage to take a chance with my face on someone I didn't know. He even talked me out of a brow lift, saying I didn't need it. He was right. A little botox smoothed everything out. It's been more than 2 years, and I'm very happy with my results, and I glad I did it. I'm not including information on the cost, because I don't think it's helpful, since every case is different, and the cost will vary depending on the particulars of your specific procedure.

Can anyone tell me how to post photos? I feel soo dumb I found out how to post just one as a profile picture.. I am now at day 6 Had neck and face lift done friday.. Not entire face just lower I guess it is called. Had a reaction to the antibiotics but after calling the dr he said stop taking them and now I am doing better got to wash my hair today that made me nervous since I still have all the stitches and staples in my head Bruising is starting to show up but not as bad as I had feared yet... Some swelling but nt too bad due to drains and icing... Good luck all I LOVE MY DR
