WORTH IT$4,200

I am 62 and was tired of doing the Radiesse to take care of my little 'jowlettes'. I felt I was wasting my money as I metabolized it too quickly. My doctor said I looked good, no facelift needed, but my neck was aging me. I finally had some time to do the necklift and had it done 8 days ago.

I felt fine by the 3rd day and am wearing my compression garmet for the next few weeks. Not the most fun but it has to be done to ensure a great long-lasting result. I am feeling very good about the outcome. My doctor is the best! He also tightened my jawline and my little 'jowlettes' are gone!!! From what can see right now I am very pleased and can't wait until completely healed. His staff is wonderful and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Pichler.

Good results......Tell us about the incisions (scars) under your chin and behind the ears. How do these look now? (Remind us of your surgery date, please) THX

You must be blind, then. Her neck is much tighter now.

Surgery was 1/31/2012. My scars healed VERY well.. I have none behind my ears. My doctor said I must be a fast healer. Under my chin I have no scarring. I do feel a tiny 'knot' but you can't see it. It took several months for it to not feel weird under there. I was a little numb in spots for months, but almost completely normal now. Sometimes I would feel a tightening throughout the neck area (which I liked!) off and on for no reason. That seems to have faded. The one thing I can't change are my 'neck muscles'. I still have 'cords' at times when talking or in photos if smiling a lot... but that's my muscles and can't change that. But in a normal relaxed state, I don't have that hanging 'turkey neck' anymore and that was the issue. Probably next year I may have a 'tuck up' on my lower face. It's done in the office. Just to tighten jawline a bit more. I'm going to post more photos... I haven't been on this site in months!!!
