“Mom and i are both happy with facelift results”
Facelift: Worth it
Pain: Mild
I had lipo under my neck along with my neck muscles tightened and my upper and lower eyes with a browlift. It was done in the office under oral sedation. The pain was minimal and the results are great.
My mother had a mid to lower facelift, lipo under her chin with muscle tightening and her upper eyes. We both look 15 years younger.
As with any surgery there is a recovery time and some discomfort. I took about 1 -2 weeks for the swelling and bruising to go away. Everyone heals at different rates so my mother, who was a smoker took a little longer to heal about 3 weeks for all the swelling to go away.
These doctors were the most caring physicians I have ever met. They were calling us to make sure we were doing alright and you can barely see any scars from the incisions. I highly recommend these surgeons. You won't be sorry.

I had the surgery Feb. 16th and so far so good. From what I can see thru brusing and swelling I am very pleased. Dr. Apostolakis in Austin TX did my surgery.
