I'm not sure I answered your question on what I had done. I had the lifestyle lift and the refractive laser treatment under my eyes. No more jowls and goodbye turkey neck! One more thing, I'm not sure they mention this but you are numb around the incision areas for quite awhile. It has been since 3/15 and I'm just now starting to get the feeling back in front of my ears. It is not a problem, just something I didn't realize would happen. They may have told me but it was a lot of information to absorb. You will be so happy with the results - it is amazing.
You will be just fine. I really had no pain, it was more like discomfort to me. Sleeping on my back instead of my sides was a challenge but with the sleeping aid, I was able to do pretty well with that. I wish you the very best and look forward to hearing a great report from you!
I had Dr. Farias and he was so kind and patient. My biggest surprise was how swollen and scary I looked after the procedure...you need to prepare yourself for that, especially with the eyelid lifts. I only had the refractive laser treatment under my eyes and still it was very swollen and bruised. Bottom line, if you can be patient and do the ice packs and wear the head band, etc. the results will be awesome. I used a bare mineral concealer and put mineral foundation over it. You will be fine! Are you using Dr. Farias?
I had the Lifestyle Lift on March 15 and went back to work on March 22, I couldn't be happier. I'm not sure what all the negative stuff is about. I'm completely satisfied with the results. I would recommend this to anyone. I was back to work in one week with some heavy concealer and a scarf to hide the bruising around my neck. Otherwise, all good!
