two month after facelift

m.varrin
first english is not my first language but i will do my best to share my experience after my facelift. I'm 60 yrs old have nice clear skin I do exercise at the gym almost everyday after my facelift my close friend told me that I look only in my 40 and look so natural, last week I went to pick up some brick from my neighbor dumpster to put in my garden ,a man joking pass by offer to carry them to my front yard he carry at least 40 brick for me after I say thanks to him ,he did walk away and he change his mind walk back and ask me if I am single he would like to have my phone number ,he say he 38 yrs old and he ask you must be few yrs older than me, I was so shock !!! don't known what to say ,all I told him nicely that's I'm married ( but I keep my age for myself ) I think facelift maybe not for everybody but I look at myself in the mirror and the photo of myself even with my nice smile it start to bother me I am glad I got it done, the most important is do the homework and get the skillful doctor , and remember is didn't change who you are just enhance how you look

I love your story about the bricks! How flattering. Thank you immensely for sharing your experience on RealSelf. What would you say was the most difficult part of recovery for you?
