WORTH IT$6,400
When I turned 40, I decided I wanted to "get in shape". A friend challenged me to sign up for a 1/2 marathon and I signed up!!!! Mind you, I was a previous smoker, ate unhealthy and drank Mountain Dew on a daily basis. I ran my 1st 1/2 marathon and thought to myself "wow, I really did that"! For the past 10 years I have lost count of the number of 1/2 marathons, 10k and 5k races I have ran. Along with running came the gym workouts 3 times a week. I have worked hard, enjoy being physically active and I am in shape. But the downfall to all this is what it has done to my facial features. I was told by a plastic surgeon that I had "runners face". Along with my "runners face", my age and my genetics, I don't like what I see in the mirror. I have done the fillers but just never felt like they made a huge difference. I too, have done tons of research, spent countless hours looking at photos and read every review there is to read on RS regarding face procedures. I am traveling to Asheville, NC on Wed. and will be having the Biltmore Lift performed by Dr. Harley, bright and early Friday morning (April 15). A close friend asked me this morning if I was nervous, I replied "nope, not at all". I see what Dr. Harley has done for all of the others who were so brave to post before and after pics that I have complete confidence in him and his staff!!!!

When I saw your photos just now, I thought to myself ... She's an athlete! I am leaving in a few minutes for my surgery and I was not too nervous until now. I will PM you my phone number so we can meet up before your surgery if you have time. I should be mobile and not drugged in a day or so. I can't wait to see you after. I will be in Asheville until the 19th.

did you take arnica Montana and bromelien and how far ahead. It seems you had little bruising. My procedure is coming up and I want to do everything for an uneventful recovery.

I have my medications, have showered and am headed to bed since I have to be at his office at 6:15 in the morning!!!!! I am hoping to be able to post something tomorrow……………we will see!!!!!!

No, I left Asheville after my followup appointment on Sat. morn. and traveled back home to Missouri. I have several friends who are RN's and one of them will be removing my stitches.
