WORTH IT
I just want my outside to match how I feel, which is so much better than that miserable looking woman who lives in my bathroom. She has just got to go! I have saved for this procedure for more than five years and finally found our wonderful Dr Harley. I've had numerous consultations with plastic surgeons from different areas. To say the least I am cautious to a fault but have finally found THE ONE. Thank you to all those who have gone before me and now it will soon be my turn. To make it even more exciting I have found a buddy with whom to share this journey on THE DAY. Her procedure is after mine on the same day and as she puts it it's kind of funny to think that Dr Harley will be performing his magic on a Brit who lives in the U.S. and his second patient will be a Georgia gal who lives in the UK. I talked with pinkieleeoo, bless her for allowing me to call her. It certainly helps to know you can chat with someone else who is in the same "club".

All the best to you, I am also considering dr. Harley but I don't know anybody in NC so I will have to find a buddy to go with me, somebody that will also have the surgery with Dr. Harley so we can rent a house or stay in a hotel for a week and take care of each other or share a nurse. I live in NJ/NY area here the plastic surgeons are extremely expensive and you don't really know who is good, their marketing is too good sometimes. I can't wait to see your results. Good Luck to you!!

You got some internet service! I just know you are going to be ☺ with your results.

Good Luck. Anxious to see your results and to hear about the stages of recuperation.

Hello everyone. I had fully expected to be back on realself in June of last year but stayed in Georgia to help with a knee replacement surgery that went wrong. It's a long story but I am now back in Florida doing doctor appointments, checkups Etc that all retirees do every year, lol!
My neck lift, upper and lower bleph were perfect and recovery was simple and uneventful. I am very happy with the final results and am now getting a prescription of Retin-A so I'll be able to take care of myself better. While I was in Georgia I didn't do anything other than apply the coconut oil at night. Daytime it was sunscreen, and wear a hat. Hardly any makeup except eye makeup. I still have to order my Jane Iredale items.
I want to thank all those before me who gave such wonderful and valuable advice which enabled me to prepare my body for recovery and healing. I did the pineapple, blueberry smoothees for two weeks before the procedures and continued for weeks after. I took the arnica pellets too. I was so surprised to have so little bruising and discoloration post op. Even Dr Harley commented to the fact

I never heard about the smoothie to decrease brushing. Please help me out. My surgery is in less than a week. Pineapple blueberry?
February 25, 2017
Hi vgray2072, if you'll read my whole review somewhere in there are the details about the preparation and all you need. Briefly I bought a magic bullet and prepared smoothies made with pineapple, blueberries, spinach, bananas. Added a little of each with a dash of cinnamon, little milk, sweetener. Get arnica Montana pellets to put under your tongue, bromelain tablets. There's so much to tell you. If you can private message me I'll help all I can.
February 25, 2017
When do you begin the pineapple and blueberries, before surgery or after?
April 10, 2017
Hi Ken, A week or two before surgery is when I started the smoothees and continued for weeks afterwards. It really works. Take the arnica Montana pellets too.
