Face Life/ Life Lift for a 67-year-old

The women in my family have all had multiple kinds of plastic surgery. My mother urged me to have rhinoplasty when I was 19 - until last June that was the only plastic surgery I'd ever experienced. Since my mother and all my aunts had face lifts, I used to joke that I'd do same before my 70th birthday...never thinking I'd really go through with it as I hate medical procedures of every sort and do my best to stay clear of doctors and hospitals as much as possible. Fortunately, I'm in good health and have had little time or reason to seek medical attention. And then, my only daughter got married this past September and as Mother-of-the-Bride (at age 67) I faced a number of big events with my two ex-husbands and their significant others, feeling maybe this would be a good time to do the deed I'd once talked about. I had thoroughly researched plastic surgeons for my daughter who had rhinoplasty several months ago - and Dr Naficy was my #1 choice based on before and after photos and letters of recommendation. After researching face lifts - I once again turned to Nacify. I had the procedure June 21st and attended my daughter's wedding on September 2nd, looking downright radiant...even if I do say so myself!
This surgery is not for the faint of heart. Post surgery seemed to me a long, painful, month-long ordeal - rather more discomfort than I expected. That said, after the first 4 weeks I began to feel human and happy again - and I love the results of Dr. Naficy's work. Each month seems better than the month before. The top of my head is still numb and will remain so for up to 2 years - so we're talking a long-term recovery. But other than the numbness, I feel fine and the improvements are worth every bit of the discomfort. People at the wedding and again in Italy (where many of our relatives spent several weeks celebrating the newly weds in Tuscany) said to me, "You look terrific!" or "You haven't aged at all - you look so young!" "What's your secret?" Ha! I simply told family and friends that I had lost a lot of weight - which is true.
But I have to say, I look refreshed NOT reworked. I look natural and healthy and glowing - NOT artificial. If you are looking for a dramatic improvement that actually looks quite subtle - in that you don't look like a different person - you simply look your best possible self - then I would suggest that you choose Dr. Nacify for your plastic surgeon and allow him to work his artistic magic on you. It's not without pain. It's not without a tough recovery period. But would I do it again, knowing everything I know now? Yes, in a heartbeat I would. Dr. Nacify is a terrific surgeon, one I trust and one who delivers exactly what you're dreaming of...

I am glad I had my procedure as I continue to look and feel younger than my years. If you can afford it, I say - go for it! Since my surgery - I recovered, traveled a bit, met a wonderful partner and on July 4th we celebrate our first year of marriage. Life is good!

Four years after my face lift and at age 71, I'm feeling fortunate to have had the procedure. The one obstacle I encountered - gaining weight! I remarried in 2018 to a wonderful man - who happens to be a marvelous chef - and so he happily does all the cooking and I've been incredibly well fed...but the snag is - one doesn't want to gain weight. The pandemic kept us at home too much...and with too little exercise so it's imperative that we change our ways...silly to go to the trouble of a procedure like this - only to get fat!!! So I'm back to lap swimming...my daughter (who married the year I had my procedure) will have her second baby in March and once again all the family will gather to celebrate - husbands #1 & #2 will come from London and Eastern Washington with their wives...and I intend to be fit for the reunion...and also I will be helping my daughter with her new baby so that requires a degree of fitness too. My message today is - once you undergo a procedure like this - don't get overweight as it's hard to take off the weight and, of course, weight ruins "the new you"...so I managed to curb my appetite just in time!
