Treated Myself for 60th Birthday!

WORTH IT
For my 60th birthday I decided to treat myself to some well deserved maintenance. Originally I was just interested in a deep plane facelift, but the thought of not having to wear an underwire bra for the last years of my life has always been appealing too, so a breast reduction/lift was always in the back of my mind. Finding a reputable surgeon was going to be a bit of a hurdle.
I had used a locally renowned NC surgeon for some minor work in the past, but found that his prices skyrocketed to Kardashian levels, so I started looking at traveling a bit. I started reading reviews about various surgeons on the east and west coast, and Dr. Maggie's reviews, YouTube videos and thoughtful answers to questions ticked the boxes.
My husband and I travelled to the DC area for a consultation, and we were both impressed with Dr. Magge, his demeanor and the facility. He suggested a deep plane facelift, brow lift, buccal fat removal and suggested that if I wanted a breast reduction, a mastopexy with a lollipop incision would be the way to go.
Fast forward. A month later, I'm a week out from having all of these procedures performed, and I am thrilled! I travelled with my wonderful husband from NC to Bethesda for this - spent the week in a nice condo in Bethesda. Had the surgery on Monday, and by Saturday we were walking around the Lincoln Memorial. (Yes, I'm a little bruised and swollen, but I feel good!). I will continue seeing Dr. Magge via video call and in person in a few months.
Although I am swollen and bruised (as expected!) it is clear to me the results will be stellar - they already are exceptional. Dr. Magge is extremely skilled, has a great bedside manner, has a great sense of humor and his staff and surgical center are top notch. Communication was quick and efficient and never a concern. So glad I took this chance for this milestone in my life!
