At 63 yrs and weight gain, I am sick of my neck. Lost my jaw line. My mouth has fallen and my eyes need a pick up. So after a long 3 years of researching doctors. I visited the man that I believe can do the best job on my eyes, my neck, and the mid face lift.
Dr. Byun was very charming and personable. He told me his history and what procedures he would use if I decided to use his services. I decided on going to Dr. Byun. My procedure is on Nov. 18, 2015. I am not nervous, I am excited and looking forward to being on the other side of this. My friend is picking me up, and watching me for a bit and then I am on my own. I hope I don't fall down and need another surgery!! Lol! Okay I will report back after my experience with this surgery!!

No NSAIDS like Advil, vitamins, or sleeping pills. But I don't think I will miss them for a few weeks.
I posted new pics so you could see my neck. Also my eye fat between my upper lid and brow has increased over the years. My lower lid does not have any fat or bags, but it gets a bit hollow and there are also wrinkles from under eye drooping.
If you notice between my brows the big vertical line? I hate that thing- it makes me look angry or mean. And jowls are a inherited gift in my family....oh yeah!! Thanks for the unwanted re gifted trait!! Haha!!
Only 2 days to go. Dr. Michael Byun will do a brow muscle cut-not sure what they call it but it smooths your lines on your brow, so I'm hoping the line goes away too!
Neck lift, mid face lift and upper & lower bleph or eyes. And the brow muscles. I should be good to go for 10 years.

Oh wow! I have one of those lines between my eyes too...have had it for so long I don't remember when I didn't. Never seen anyone else here on RS with one like it. I can't wait to see the success your doctor has at removing it. Good luck!
