So far so good. The procedure went really well, I barely had any pain. I am healing well and everything Dr. Weiler and his nurses told me has been spot on so far. I had a Lower Face / Neck Lift, fat graft under my eyes, in my cheeks, and a teenie bit in my upper lip. Plus I had CO2 Laser all over my face. Really the laser is the worst part, I don't feel too much from the sutures or fat graft.

Congratulations! :) How long is your recovery supposed to take?

2 weeks or so, but I'm going to a party Friday which will be only 9 days out. I'm going to wear a turtleneck to cover the yellow neck/chest. Hopefully I can cover the bruising around my ears with makeup. Stitches are coming out tomorrow. Hot Diggity Dawg!!!

I have had 2 full CO2 laser peels on my face about 2 decades apart and that kept me from having to have a full face lift for a real long time. And yes the laser is the worse recovery EVER. But so worth it. The face and neck lift and fat grafts are a piece of cake compared to the laser.

It's already getting there. This CO2 laser is amazing stuff. Totally worth it.

Looking great ! How much fat did he inject do you know. I am looking in to this procedure to, but kind of scared to about it coming out in lups. Also I heard its doesn't survive all the fat. Also did he tighten the bands on your neck ? Thanks
December 23, 2016
Thanks. I'm not sure. I told him I wanted a lot.
December 23, 2016
Yes, he sewed the 2 neck bands together. And, he feather the CO2 laser down my neck so there won't be a line.

Is the "Fat graft" your own fat ? If so from what part of your body?
December 28, 2016
Yes, from my belly.

Mine was from the belly as well. A friend had her work done 3 weeks after me and hers was taken from her sides. I guess it depends on the Dr.

I think your Doctor did an amazing job! You look wonderful? Did he get rid of crows feet?
January 18, 2017
Not completely, but he said the CO2 laser effects will continue to improve for 6 months.
