I was looking older than my age due to significant turkey neck and jowls. I consulted Dr. Henderson and she suggested a facelift and a chin implant to add definition to my jawline. I will admit that the first few days after the procedure were quite uncomfortable and I got a little alarmed when one of my ears was quite numb. IIt has only been five weeks since my procedure, so I am still getting used to my new look. Old friends have told me that I look very well rested and more youthful. I am so happy that Dr. Henderson recommended the chin implant in addition to the facelift, because it has made such a positive change in my appearance. Now when someone looks at my profile I am not uncomfortable and I have the confidence to believe that I look great!

Great review?

Dr. Henderson and her staff are the best. I am so happy that I chose Dr. Henderson to do my facelift. I did consult two other cosmetic surgeons for price comparison, and Dr,. Henderson's fees were less and actually included more than the other surgeons I saw. The staff made me feel very comfortable and was responsive to my concerns. Everyone was very honest about what I would experience after the surgery. n fact I called Dr. Henderson at her home on the weekend, and she immediately returned my call, reassured me that what I was experiencing was normal, and the rest of my weekend was much more relaxed because of her compassionate and prompt response to my fears.

It has been three months now since my facelift and chin implant. I feel very good about my appearance. I have more self-confidence and I smile a lot more. I can feel where the skin is still healing deep down inside....mostly near my ears. It is not at all noticeable but if I rub my skin I can feel that there is still some numbness and bumpiness under the surface of the skin near my ears. As each week passes I am more comfortable with my new look.....after 60 years with almost no chin I am now getting used to seeing a nice profile in the mirror!!!!

Hi Cathy -- Thank you for posting your experience so far. How is your healing going? I hope you're doing well... please update us when you have a chance. :)
