Traveling to Asheville Alone

Just want to mention that, I traveled alone to Asheville and had some confusion as to which care service was the best fit for me. Once I got there and realized the distance of things, I called Susie from TLC -- she immediately booked a place for me at the Fairmont (I do not recommend last minute plans at all, but this is what happened to me) for a very good rate. She and Violet met with me the next day to go over meds, timing, what my needs would be, etc. They took me to and from surgery and another woman (apologies but I was knocked out and don't remember her name) stayed with me to give me meds during the night and made sure I slept sitting without slipping down. Violet was there first thing in the am to take me for bandage removal. Susie called me almost daily during that following week just to make sure I was okay and ask if I need anything. The room was surprisingly large ( I get claustrophobic in small spaces), with a king sized bed, and a sizable seating area with a sofa and table. The bed faces a very large flat screen TV. which I used a lot because I had a peel with my lift and didn't want to go out much. The room also has a fridge -- I brought a mixer and made fruit / protein shakes daily. Also, there is an Ingles market and gas station right next door and an Outlet Mall just across the street. I do not like outlet malls but it was an easy place to get to and walk around as a break from my room. I actually found a beautiful scarf at a shockingly huge discount there. Anyway, Susie and the ladies of TLC were there for me -- I highly recommend their service. Also want to mention the Arts District is very cool to visit while there and Tupolo Honey seems to be THE place for brunch! I was peeling like mad -- but I went to both!

Above ear incision

Hey, Lynn, he did seem to go up pretty far, I think? Are you saying it's more typical for the incision to go up higher? This is a messy shot because I got a peel too, but see where the incision ends?.

He did go nice and close to the hairline, which hides it well, and it's almost healed now. But, are you saying it's more typical they go up higher?

I think it depends on the hairline and excess skin how high he goes up. I'm going to post an update & I will add an old picture of my incisions so you can see mine. I had quite a distance between my eye & brow - not sure if that would make a difference & lots of excess skin everywhere

Great—ill Check it out. I agree with you And think his good results comes from determining what each person needs to have.get the best result. Your eyes look incredibly beautiful. As does the face and neck.

I am sure it will fade to a very thin white line that you can cover with make up. The trade off with this stuff is a scar, still worth it in my opinion

Hi Cd. That temple scar is already totally gone, or, because he tucked it in so close to the hairline you just can't see it. Scars in front of ears are healing incredibly well too. I agree - totally worth it even if it did leave a scar.

Your profile looks so young! front will even out for sure - it's still early & you don't have that much swelling but I can see some for sure. I'll address the eyes below. Thanks for posting your pics!

Thanks! Yes I think the profile is great! Very happy with that. Swelling is mostly visible from the front - you can see it a little in the front on photo - but I expect I'll have facial swelling (for several more weeks at least?). Seems the 3 month point is supposed to be the sweet spot as far as swelling goes.
