Just Amazingness
From beginning to now 11 months post I had a magnificent experience - Dr. Ransom performed a deep plane neck and lower face lift on me in March 2024. I felt at ease with his skillset almost immediately - he has a keen eye and gentle nature I found calming. Now as I live in my new neck daily I feel like he’s also an incredible artist.
I think my great result is a mix of him - mostly all him- but I prepped as well - anti inflammation diet - lived like a monk for the month prior to surgery. And I added 6 hyperbaric oxygen treatments both right before and just after my surgery. This is supposed to really speed healing as well as limit bruising.
I had almost zero bruising (and I’m a bruiser!) and could see the results right away. I had the unexpected joy of seeing my cheekbones pop in a way they hadn’t before, a lovely bonus! People always talk about how you crash on like day 3-4 after a surgery when the adrenaline wanes. I didn’t have that experience - no nausea either. They have their drug cocktail for anesthesia mixed just right it seems.
The trickiest part for me was about a month in when my nerves started regrowing or turning back on - it was kind of overwhelming and sucked my energy every afternoon if I tried to do too much- I’m a mover so it was hard to still be still a month in. But it didn’t last - a few weeks to a month like that and I was past it.
If you really stay chill, let your body heal - this I felt was an easy recovery. I never had any pain- just tightness and that nerve tingling feeling for a good chunk of the second month. I took Gabapentin for that when it felt like too much.
I felt like I could go to the store at about a week in - and I resumed slow activity after a few weeks. The scars healed beautifully. My neck changed a lot from being smooth and perfect looking a few days later to lumpy and bumpy a few months in - to smooth and perfect 3+months and counting. Trusting the process and the team answering questions was so helpful. Thanks so much to everyone at the office for helping me ongoing through the months of healing!
Dr. Ransom, his nurses and his PA were all just wonderful. Thanks for everything!
