20 Years Younger!

ORIGINAL POST

20 Years Younger!

WORTH IT
Dr. Richards recently performed a natural facelift, buccal fat removal and laser resurfacing. In one 4-hour procedure I lost 20 years off my face! I look and feel so much happier and confident. This was my second procedure with Dr Richards. His expertise is incredible-he suggests exactly what is needed and he has been right both times. He is also very responsive to any complications that may arise. His administrative and nursing staff are super helpful and easy to work with. If there is anything you are unhappy with in your appearance, Dr. Richards is your surgeon. A consultation is a good place to start. His expertise is amazing along with his kind, relaxed demeanor. Highly recommended!!!

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! How was the recovery process? Did you have much downtime after the surgery?

The recovery process was fairly easy and without a lot of pain or bruising. I was able to go to an event less than 3 weeks after the procedure and look presentable…
That is good to hear. I have my surgery scheduled for 25th of this month and I do need to get back to work quite soon. I worry about visible scarring because I have thin hair due to menopause my hair falls out a lot. So I can’t hide it very well.
How was the laser resurfacing? Did you do the whole face or just around the mouth. How long were you pink?
Around the mouth. Still a little bit pinkish after three months and lightening more as time goes by. The skin looks amazing and the marionette lines are completely gone.
Did you use tretinoin/hydroquinone 2 weeks prior to laser?
