Turning 54 Next Wk & Feel As if I'm Looking Old - Bakersfield, CA

I just returned from a vacation and of course took lots of pics. Although my skin looked smooth, I saw a lot of deep wrinkles around my eyes. They looked even worse when I smiled and I became hesitant at the thought of another photo. I decided to get the Total FX ( and had actually already discussed with my Dr a few months back). It turned to be the ideal time for me too because I am working from home for the next couple of weeks and I am also turning 54 next week (my birthday present to me!!). I will add pics as I go along in an effort to help others decide whether to move forward or not.
The focus was heavily on my eyes, both upper and lower lids and my neck. The rest of my face was also done especially the marionette lines and nasolabial areas.

I have just showered and washed my face again. I feel as if I have turned the corner, my eyes are more open, I don't have any pain and my lasered skin is starting to darken.

44 hrs post and I feel fabulous! Swelling is down greatly, no pain whatsoever, just some tightness setting in. I'm finding that washing my face is very soothing and the cool water feels good. I have slept on the sofa both nights so far with my head well elevated (sitting straight up).
