WORTH IT$6,900
I am scheduled for consultation with Dr Harley on May 3rd in hopes of getting a neck and lower facelift. I have been reading and looking at many before and after pics of his Biltmore left. I'm hoping to be a good candidate for that. I'm will be 48 next month and have really started the aging process over the last 3-4 years. It's beginning to cause me anxiety. My boys are now grown at 24 and 26 years old. It's time to focus on me I think.

Is anyone familiar with the Mini Mak lift from Dr Ahmed Maki in Nebo, NC? I am considering scheduling a consult with him the same day that I have scheduled with Dr Harley. Pretty definite I'm going with Dr Harley but will not hurt to check it out.

I just looked at Dr. Maki website, work looks impressive! Please let us know if you do go for a consult. I think having several consults is a good thing. I am number 5 myself.

I have decided not to take any chances on him. The reviews for that place are terrible and looks like the have some malpractice suits against them. They are not PS. They are actually ER drs. I wouldn't advice anyone to go there.

I wish there was an edit option here. I always have typos thanks to my auto correct. :-(

I always wonder when they have big glossy websites!!! Are you going it alone? Wow he is booked up!!
March 23, 2016
He sure is! I can plainly see why from everyone's updates. My fiance will be traveling with me. We are going to make the consultation a mini vacation. It's long overdue. I am googling different things to do while there and so far I'm hoping to tour the Biltmore museum. It looks incredibly mysterious!

Asheville is a gorgeous town. Highly educated populace and artistic centered. Couldn't pick a more charming town to recover in. :) Similar to Charlottesville, Va. if you've ever been there.

I'm not going to bother with a consult I am just going to send him a check! hahaha Yes, it's high time we did things that are just for us!! :) When are you thinking about having surgery?
March 21, 2016
Since I have to wait until May 3rd for consult I am hoping like crazy that I will not have to wait another 2 months for surgery. I do see how booked he is from all of the ladies here. I am going to call amd ask if they can possibly move me up if they have any cancellations. In other words...ASAP!! LOL

Does anyone know if Dr Harley does Lip Lifting?
April 11, 2016
I do not think he does he has never said anything about it to me or the other girls that have gone to him you can call his office and speak to Juanita she would know
April 13, 2016
If Dr. Harley doesn't do lip lifts (wow I would love to get that over with too!) I was researching Dr. Elizabeth Morgan in Atlanta, girls seem really please with her work.
April 13, 2016
Yes. I would like to talk to Dr H about Bleph but will have to look elsewhere if I decide on lip lift. I doubt I will tho.
April 13, 2016
You won't regret going to Dr. H! I'm 2 years post-op and still thrilled with my results.
April 13, 2016
You now I am so glad yu let me know because I haven't see anything on real self about Harleys girls that are over 2 years we were all wondering how long it last thanks for letting us know
April 13, 2016
2 years? Thank you so much for telling me!!! That's one of the questions I've had on my mind...how long would it last. Again...thank you! I'm so anxious.
April 13, 2016
I just read yur profile did you use Dr. H for a lower neck and face lift looks like you went to another doctor
April 13, 2016
No. I haven't had the procedure done yet. I was briefly considering another Dr until I researched him and the facility. I am definitely going with Dr H.
April 13, 2016
How long it lasts varies by age, from what Dr H told me. I had mine done at 45, so I can expect 8'ish to 10 years, I think. Right now, 2 years out, I have very little changes from the initial surgery. Slight loosening, but nothing visible to anyone but me!

You look great I love your cheek bones wow
April 11, 2016
Thank you. My face has thinned out so much from when I was younger tho. I appreciate the compliment.
April 12, 2016
LOL! Yea I thought about that. It will give me an idea if I truly want to go for fat transfer later on. Hahaha! I am getting so excited! Keep your fingers crossed with me that I do not have to wait months for my actual surgery date! Are you still loving everything? You look so great!
May 21, 2016
I am so proud of you for posting your pictures. If you notice mine are all sort of silly, there is something liberating about being light hearted and not taking yourself seriously. Plus your are beautiful!!!
May 21, 2016
Aww...thank you so much for the sweet compliment. And you are so right! That is something I need to work. Stop being so uptight all the time! :-)
May 9, 2019
That is amazing!!!! Happy for you!! I just had a full facelift and can only dream mine was as majorly successful as yours.

Moisturizer
I am curious about the best moisturizer to use after surgery to maintain my new youthful look. I know...thinking ahead! :-) Has anyone asked Dr H this question? I will leave early early Monday to get there at 9:00 for my consultation. Looking so forward to meeting Dr H and hopefully getting an official surgery date. My fiance and I are going to do some site seeing in Asheville and then head to Myrtle Beach. Our check in time is 3P there. We are taking a much needed mini vacation. I'm just super excited!!! About the vacation...being able to do things for myself and for my loving and very supportive fiance...in which...without him none of this would even be possible.

Hi Susan
I know your excited and can't wait, by the way on moisturizer Dr.H said do not use any makeup or other stuff on your face for at least 2 weeks after surgery now what I did use, was organic coconut oil you will love it because your face is very tight in front of your ears and under your chin it tends to you can get it online or at whole foods make sure it is for your skin I have to keep it in the fridge because it tends to melt I hope it doesn't take so long for a surgery date mine was 6 weeks but it is so worth it, good luck and stay on RS it will help you so much

I think it's time to focus on you, too! Thank you so much for starting your story and please keep us updated. We are about the same age, so I will be following your story with interest. :)
Isn't it crazy to have to do it again, even if just partially? Let me know if you have any questions re: braces. It was a pain, but really worth it.
