18 month pic since my facelift and upper blep, quite a bit of laxity now, my neck not as good as I had hoped but still so much better than it was. My confidence levels are much better too. More than pleased with with my eyes, no laxity there. I would without doubt recommend my PS,

I thought I would do an update, 10 months today I had a lower facelift and upper eyes , so I wouldn't feel quite so old looking at my only daughters wedding, I have to say it was worth every penny , the operation recovery was not a walk in the park for me, it wasn't without its problems, but now I feel great, yes I still have some numbness in my face( not too much), and my face is definitely not as taught as it was, but it is still much, much better than before surgery. It has given me far more confidence, The wedding ( which was on a beach in Cyprus) was truly magical, and my very happy daughter has lots of photos to look back on, some have even got her mum in them. Now that wouldn't have happened pre facelift. Would I do it again, knowing the recovery?? Absolutely.

You look great! Did you do anything about the lip lines. I am 69 and have had eyes, cheeks, face and neck lift all good but still have the lip lines. I dont expect miracles but it would be good not to have them!

Thankyou, no I haven't done anything, I'm not ruling it out, but from for the moment, I'm ok with how I look, yes I would of liked to be slightly tighter, but I emphasised that I didn't want to look pulled, as it is people are totally unaware I've had surgery, as it's so natural. I always get comments as to not looking my age so that will do for now:). Btw you had lots done, how did it go and are you recovered fully now .

I am fully recovered no real healing problems at all. All under local. Scars invisible. It has given me loads more confidence but the lip lines are a bit of a pain! I am a non-smoker so it is purely age!

Glad all good, I was told by my ps that lip lines are nothing to do with smoking, it's just the luck of the draw as to whether you get them. I know you can have fillers on them, but I loathe that pouty filled look as it is so un natural and a dead give away to work having been done, wish there was a magic cream.. old age sucks, but at least we are here :) .

I had Volbella on my lip lines. It didn't make a pouty look. Just took the horrible lines away. You can see it on my profile page. It's awesome

You are right old age sucks but at least we are here! Looking better so nothing really to complain about!

Well.. This has been a roller coaster, at 2 weeks post op my poor sister died suddenly, (aged 64), I went into shock and ended up in hospital, we finally laid my sis to rest last week, she was an organ donor and the red tape took forever, but I must add I am extremely proud of my sis , she has saved 5 lives, and her heart continues to beat ( within a 40yr old lady) as I write this. Of course it doesn't take away my pain, the emptiness I feel is still there, but it does give me some comfort , knowing she has given life to these people and their families. Considering how life has been I'm very surprised I have even healed at all from my surgery. I'm still very numb and quite sore behind my ears, I have lost some weight so I do need to 'fill' out a bit now :( x
