WORTH IT$12,500
I have been saving for years to do a facelift. I am ready - Weight loss of nearly 70 lbs. contributed to sagging and loose skin on face. Also wrinkles. Will have fat injections around eyes and cheek and mouth, neck and face lift. I am very comfortable with the doc and facilities of where I am going.

Countdown to the Day!
Only 10 days before it is my turn. Had a check up with my opthomologist to tell him what I had planned. He was supportive and willing to help try and get the upper eyelid skin excision covered under my insurance. Would go toward out of network deductible since the PS is not a provider and I am not on medicare. I have read and read all instructions - called to make sure I had purchased the correct items; Aquafor for babies which was fine (had picked it up before) and antibacterial body wash. The nurse told me I was over-thinking things. Well, nervous Nelly here wants to follow the instructions to a "T" so I am willing to check and recheck. Cheers all.

I lost 63 lbs as well- the surgery is SO worth it- still have 1 more to go- in Sept- but I can tell you you will be ecstatic when it's all over- I feel like me again- what a moral changer! Worth every penny

Hi MK, I m from Vero Beach area. I had a necklift April 28. No problems. Make sure someone helps you afterwards. Can't wait to see your post! This is a great site! Lilygirl14

O.K. I am ready. I will attempt to post one "before" photo and a little video clip I did a couple of weeks ago. I think I will take one of my few precious xainex the doc gave me for anxiety. Not really too nervous yet, just excited and ready to move on. This board has been very helpful, if not a bit encompassing, never the less worth my time since the is about all I have been able to think abut the last few days.
PS
Can not seem to get the video to load - incompatible with Realself but I will keep working on it.
