Thanks to many on here (MMMcKenzie, dontgetold, SouthernSister etc) I have reached out to Dr Harley in hopes of scheduling a neck lift. I am convinced based on all the natural looking results I've seen that he is the doc for me. I've already sent Juanita my intake form and pics so I hope to hear from Dr. Harley soon.

Hello Almost50. I'm scheduled for a consult on July 27 but hoping for a cancellation t get in earlier! dr. Harley's natural look is what made me pick him too! I'm looking forward to following your journey!

Had my phone consult
Spoke to Dr Harley this week. He patiently answered all my many questions. I did learn that he doesn't do gland resection which I thought would be necessary. That has to be done under general anyway and sounds risky as far as possible complications. Still don't have surgery date scheduled, but Juanita is working with me to get on his calendar for June.
One question for those of you that have already gone through this...is it difficult getting used to the tightness in your neck until the platysma softens up? I kind of freak out when I think about feeling like I can't breathe. Any feedback would be most appreciated!

This seems to be a very individual experience. I haven't heard anyone talk about difficulty breathing but certainly some people experience an uncomfortable tightness. I know if one person who had severe job pain that lasted about 10 days. Her seem to be an unusual experience, but everyone seems to be different. My main issue was that I was afraid I was going to screw it up because I had a sneezing incident but I was reassured by Dr. Harley that wasn't going to happen.

Yes, it's very individual. Mine was quite easy. I even didn't loose my appetite as I was able to chew soft food on my second day. the first 24 hours I slept. I am just over 3 week post op, still feel some tension under my neck and some numbness in front of my ears, but very minimum of discomfort. I can turn my head in all directions except fully extending my neck up…95% approx. Recovering after a bleph surgery is more complicated. I still have some bruises left. I hope by the next Friday, our son's graduation, it will be gone. Don't worry it's much easier than you think. Good luck!

If you are doing one over the phone I would think it would be much quicker!
