Here is me (with the red headband) at 7 weeks recovery. Astounding. The omments I am receiving are unbelieveable. I model for a living and was able to go back to work after 6 weeks and nobody could tell I had any surgery at all. Couldn't yet do my W I D E smile, but hey, it was just fine!

Thanks so much Eileen! I feel 20 yrs younger. Dr. Ganchi plus the best skincare offerings that out there now have helped take me back in time! The comments I receive are just incredible. What fun!

Thank you so kindly! I actually feel wonderful. Six weeks before surgery, I started taking ARNICA which is a natural herb found in health food stores. I asked my surgeon and he said he has seen amazing results with it. I hadvery very little swelling that was virtually gone in weeks and the bruising was the least my Dr. said he had ever seen. A touch under one eye and yellowing on one side of my neck which also was gone in a matter of 2-3 wks. My Dr. said my surgery and healing was "textbook". If you are thinking of having surgery on your face, just make sure you choose the right doctor. Natural is key here! That is what you want your outcome to be!

The change from 4 to 7 weeks is spectacular! Where were your fat injections? Did your surgeon do the process where they remove the fat, harvest, then inject? I have heard so many different opinions on the fat injections but I think its a matter of procedure. The ps has to follow the protocol. You look great. Congratulations!

At 59 yrs old I felt younger than I looked. I wanted a refreshed look but not a drastic change in my appearance and he listened and understood exactly what I wanted and provided the service beautifully.

My facelift was done 4 wks ago and I have already had raves from friends and family.  There was virtually no pain and I must attribute this to his expertise and fine suturing.  Outstanding choice.

The photo I downloaded was taken 4 weeks after surger of upper and lower eye, fat injections to sculpt my face, ear lobe surgery, short scar face lift.

You look absolutely fabulous. You look happy too.
By the way, couldn't help notice your background in the red room. Great taste in decor, darling. Wishing you the best.

Annie! Thank you so much! And yes, that is my living room. I love color, drama and sass. Guess thats why I didn't want to look old "just yet". Dr. G has matched my "outside to my inside". Check my latest photo. Only 7 weeks. Its really astounding. Best, Linda

Congratulations Sushilover. I felt the same way before I had my facelift, fat transfer and temple lift back in November 2009. I hope you are as happy with your results as I am mine. Since I have been through the recovery, if you want to ask any questions as you heal, just let me know. Good luck. Enjoy the new you.
