WORTH IT$6,500
i have been waiting to do this for over a year and I can't believe the day is finally under a week away. For several years I have been obsessed (no, actually disgusted) with my neck. I found Dr Harley by chance on RS and when my husband could not take my nagging anymore he took me to meet him. We both loved him right away! I hope my posts will help others like those of Red, Southersister, Texann, and so many others have helped me. We will arrive in Asheville on Thursday to get everything organized and will be staying at the Baymont Inn by Dr Harley's office. My procedure is first thing on Friday morning!

Very exciting. I'm keeping up with your journey. Now I have two neck lift litter mates. :) Your husband and mine sound similar. Supportive, loving, and tired of hearing about it. Do it already. LOL

The procedure itself was a breeze- I don't remember a thing! Hubby and I arrived there at 6:15 (still dark), met briefly with the sweet doctor and off I went. That's all I remember. Next thing I was in hotel room. I did have some pain around my ears. I took the pain meds and that helped. I slept a lot. When I woke up my chin hurt but not my ears loll. Took some more pain meds and a delicious smoothie hubby made me. Slept some more. By 2 am I was able to take myself to the restroom and give my self Tylenol. I have not taken pain meds again. Oh, I did have to take the nausea pull once. This morning we were back at Dr Harley's at 8 am. He said everything was looking fine and gave us the go ahead to drive to Pinehurst... I feel pretty good, actually.

No, I did not get a peel. Just the lift. But anything else I do I will be visiting Dr H for sure- such a gentle, confidence- inspiring dr!
