At 48, I have decent skin (with a little help from Botox!) but felt like I could do more. I am an RN in the aesthetics industry so my expectations are realistic . I looked into a neck lift but the price was more than I wanted to spend (not to mention I didn’t want to go under anesthesia ). Anyway, here begins my journey...

I’m 24 hours out and so far it’s ok. I had significant swelling over night and crusting from the serrous drainage/oozing. A cool wash and more aquaphor and a few ice packs later, I could go out with a hat and glasses!

The large spot over my R eye was from a PDL laser for a red mark.

Skin feels tight and eyes pretty swollen after sleeping but otherwise think it’s progressing as it should. Good thing I have lots of indoor projects to do still!

I feel like today was a turning point of sorts! Most of my face peeled after showering this morning. I was even able to use a serum instead of aquaphor and with a little cover up, I left the house for the first time in days!

Had my follow up a week after the procedure. All is going accordingly. I won’t see the true benefit for about 3 months but I’m hopeful! I have coverup on the spot over my right brow, otherwise, no makeup.

A month post procedure and I feel like I see improvement in my neck (that was my biggest area of concern). Overall pleased so far. In this picture you’ll note a spot on my left cheek and my forehead...still get occasional breakouts!
