After waiting to be old enough to figure it would only take one time through a corrective procedure to not ever have to do another in my lifetime, I chose Dr. Villano due to his other outstanding reviews. Good choice because - Wow! - I have a 30-years-old's jawline and neck back. The bruising was completely gone at two weeks and the swelling and numbness are almost gone. Dr. Villano is an artist with faces not just a surgeon plus he's a very nice man who really listens to you, makes suggestions for your best results and will try to work with your budget. He also has a staff of kind, caring women who attend to your every need and question and all of this along with the prettiness of the office made for an (almost) fun experience while I had my lower face and neck lift.

You look great, thanks for sharing! How do you like living in Bend? I've always wanted to move there.
July 8, 2015
Thank you. Bend has nice people. Being the only decent-sized city in Central Oregon, every need is centralized here : good hospital, no lack of good doctors, dentists, vets, etc. Costco, Target, Super Walmart, all grocery chains, TOO many restaurants, activities to participate in always going on, and, of course, the mountains, rivers, lakes in your backyard. BUT rent and house prices are really high and if you come needing employment it's hard to find a job here unless you are a nurse or other medical professional.
Best regards

Saw him for last time today and his assistant is going to email me the before/after photos they took. Thanks again.

I just realized you have your own page ! You really did it well with all the pics you have. I never knew I was going to come on here until Dr. Villano steered me to it afterwards when I asked him if there was a way to give him credit for a good job so I didn't keep any running photo account. But saw him today and his assistant is going to email me the before/after pics they took in the office. By the way, you now look a lot like Natalie Wood in her "later" years (since she only lived until her mid-forties I think and was still a knockout it's a great look to have ! ). Your teeny dog is darling.

Seeing the doc Friday & need to have him upload his "before" & "after" (don't have any "during".)

7/17 Appointment got cancelled today due to his having to do a surgery - will get those before pics next Thursday.

I have an appointment next month (August) for a consult on a necklift. So glad to see that you are very pleased with Dr. Villano. I probably will have to wait to have the procedure done next spring as family is coming to visit for 3 weeks (we're in La Pine) in September, then we're out of the country for 6 months. But my question to you is how long was it between your consult visit and surgery date?
July 17, 2015
Had the consult on April 23, procedure was done on June 3 (but I had told him I needed it to be scheduled any time after May so if I'd left it open it might have been done sooner - I would email or call Charity, his scheduler, to answer your question).

Bear in mind I did not have eyes done (wearing glasses helps a lot with that problem and MUCH cheaper)

you look fantastic!!!

I know what you mean.....I'd love to get my lips done and continue to get botox but it just costs too much!

Congratulations! You do look really great, good for you! I had my eyes done, uppers and lowers at 61 and love how it helped. I think his price for the facelift was very reasonable compared to where I live. I did tell my hubby, when I turn 70, or sell my small business, I am getting a facelift! haha

Thank you so much. Would love to see your eyes before & after with what you had done since I'm really scared to have them mess with my eyes.

If you decide to get a consult, find an occuplast,they specialize in the eye area for the most part. Be sure to see before and afters. Getting the uppers done is easy, it can be done with only local freezing of the area. Walk in and walk out when done. The lowers is more involved. A lot depends on what the doctor feels to be done for the best outcome. Again, good for you, you are looking great.
Looking great so far! Thank you for sharing! Do you happen to have a "before" photo so we can see your transformation? :)
Haha, I do know what you mean. If you can get your hands on those pics and post them I'm sure they'd be very helpful for others going through a similar journey. :)
