You look amazing. I just had a consult with Dr. Rohrich and found him pleasant, but he seemed in a hurry and rather than volunteering information, he expected me to ask questions. He also seemed to have almost *too much* confidence, so I am a little apprehensive about him. Did you get fat grafting? He told me he requires it with all facelifts and it scares me. Can you describe your experience in more detail?

Hi, Yes, I had fat grafting,full facelift, eyes, neck and peel. Dr Rohrich is truly an expert. I know you are doing your research because you found "Real Self" and you have questions. Smart lady! Have you purchased Dr Rohrich's book "Navigate your Beauty"? It answers many questions. I had consultations with three other doctors, I had to ask most of the questions with each. I had done enough research to know what I wanted but it would have been nice to have had a few suggestions. Now, I would ask them to look at my face and offer options for procedures. I think the more you see Dr Rohrich the more you will like him and trust him. After my surgery and healing for a few months, I told Dr. Rohrich that I would like a little less skin on my eyelids. I was so impressed by his reaction to my concern. He said "I can take care of that." . We scheduled a time and he took a little more skin from my eyelids at no cost! He is great with Botox and the newest fillers. He is consistently learning and teaching professionals and patients. His book is a prime example. His wife is also a Cosmetic surgeon. I like the fact that he grew up on a ranch and has children. I think he is kind and honest. I like his staff at both locations. The ladies are always friendly and helpful. I know that he would never do a procedure he did not feel was right for his patient. I have been very happy with my results and plan to continue to see him . If you have any questions about my procedures, I'll do my best to answer them.

Thank you for all the info, I am going to get his book. How did your fat grafting hold up? I have read differing opinions on whether to do it during the FL or wait until some healing takes place; also about the loss that inevitably occurs. I tried fillers a couple months ago and loved it! But it's too much for a known temp fix, at least for me. I am ready for a permanent rejuvenation ;) Iam from Tenn, but live in "southern" Az now, thus "still" southern.. lol

Hi, Hope you are doing well and getting closer to your goal. Once you make the decision and commit, you are on your way. I say go for it girl! I don't know about all fat grafting but mine has lasted over a year. I think the fillers and Botox will always help as we age. The doctor works with knowledge and a scalpel not a magic wand :-) genetics and mantainace play a major part. You will be do happy after you "just do it" and you have healed you wi LOVE your eyes and probably wonder why you hade t done it earlier. Good luck Whatever you decide:-). I'll follow your journey. Have a great day:-) Rebecca

Such good advice for those of us still researching! Your results alone make me want to do it....yesterday! Of course, you started out beautiful, but your results appear like you went to a year-long spa - no "too tight, too thin, too much cheek,and too much chin" I see often.

Give yourself time after your procedure.

Before my surgery I read many comments about how much time it would take to heal and see results. It has been 8 months since my surgery (facelift, neck,brow,eyes and chemical peel). I looked fine after a month but after 6 months, as with any surgery, I looked even better. I'm enjoying my look more with time. I believe we shouldn't panic after a few weeks if our eyes don't look exactly perfect or a swollen face for example. I wish someone had said to be patient and trust your doctor. Dr Rohrich has listened to me through these stages and had been so patient and encouraging. I'm sure sometimes he has to take a deep breath when I hit him with my many questions. He is such a gentleman, so kind. I had Botox about 4 months after surgery, it was nice but the second time was terrific. Should have started it ten years ago. I'm having a little filler in two months. I'm doing everything I can to maintain this look and I know I am in skilled gifted hands with Dr.Rohrich.
