Best Facial Surgeon Ever!

ORIGINAL POST

Best Facial Surgeon Ever!

WORTH IT$14,000
I am only able to select one thing for the treatment but I did it all. Face life, Neck Lift, Brow Lift, and Eye Lift at age 50. I did it early and it was not noticed by everyone but I always hear, you have never aged. Oh but I did! Stein is a great doctor and his team is fantastic also. I used pain pills for 3 days and switched to tylenol on day 4. His price was great also. I interviewed 7 doctors before i picked Stein.

Would you mind giving price??
$14,000. I got the works. Everything. And I am returning for laser on my face this November, 2019. That is $4,000. A three year follow up. Something important I should mention. I made sure I was at my lowest weight so I would have maximum sagging and I stayed away from the bad stuff to reduce inflammation. No soy, gluten, dairy, caffeine, sugar or food dyes for the 30 days prior to surgery and until 26 days after surgery. Which was Christmas day. Hope this helps.
I’ve priced a face an neck lift brow lift an soof, under eye lift, 16,500
You look like an adorable young girl!
I was 50 in those pics. I am now 53.
Thank you
Would like to see these photos-The site is very challenging for me!
Beautiful results! Thank you or sharing.i am 6 days after FL/NL, fat transfer and doing well. I will not be posting photos-it's way beyond my privacy limits. My bruising is mostly near ears and on throat-mostly yellow.
You look wonderful! Would you be able to post some pictures from today? What was the healing like, I’m hearing horror stories and I’m booked for Dec. I’m a nervous wreck. I’ve heard that your neck feels very constricted and I’m claustrophobic. Second guessing myself now. :( Thank You for any help!
Hi Christine, Wanted to let you know my FL/NL/FT surgery was 6 days ago,and all is going well. Very minimal discomfort, and I managed fine with the drain that was of concern tome. I had my husband watching me to make sure I didn’t fall/faint, etc., but managed well with no bad effects from anesthesia. I had the huge mummy head bandage for almost 2 days! Gotta say, that was probably the worst of it. On the 2nd day, I felt like I was suffocating and got very anxious because I felt like I couldn’t swallow. I texted Dr., and he said to cut the bandage an inch or two from the throat toward the chin. That helped and he removed the bandages the next morning. I have a lot of swelling but only a little bruising that I can tell. You have to decide for yourself if you are ready. It is scary, but for me, I felt ready. Patience though recovery is key as well as trust in doc. The RealSelf site is helpful, but it is very user unfriendly in my opinion. I do not think I will post my info there. Best, P
Wow! Thank you so much for your feedback, it sounds like the worst of it should be over after the first couple of days. Will just have to deal with it. I’m glad you had a good experience. Thank you so much again and best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Absolutely-happy to help as others' info helped me immensely. Ask any questions as needed. I took sinnech arnica surgery pack (Amazon) with doc's ok, although he said there was no scientific proof behind it. I have also been using "Makemeheal" post surgery supplements (Amazon) and alternating arnica gel/vitamin k cream on bruises. I m not a pill person so it's a stretch for me to take pills. I am in excellent overall health and have not altered my food choices. The 1st 2 days, it was very small bites, but I managed. I did however, lose 3 pounds unintentionally. Today is 1 week and I could have gone out with some makeup. I chose not to as there was no urgent need.
Thank you so much!! I was just looking into Sinnech Arnica! I was looking into VitaMedica’s combo Arnica & Bromelain supplements as well as the VitaMedica Arnica +K cream too. I’ve also read that Vitamin C, Vitamin A, and Zinc are important to heal. I have my pre-op on 11/6 so I will see what my doc suggests, but I know a lot of them say there is no scientific proof that Arnica works. Do you think it has made you heal faster as far as swelling & Bruising? Thank you so
Much!!
Hi Christine, It is very difficult to know if arnica, etc has sped up the process for swelling/bruising, but I believe it has compared to when I had Sculptra bruising and did not use arnica. It helps me to know I am doing all I can to help myself-psychological but important. For zinc, etc, I get all the healing vitamins in "makemeheal" supplement. I do not like taking pills so that minimizes it. Make sure your doc is ok with whatever you take. Best, P
Yes. Let me find some photos of me now. My neck is not constricted. And I do hot yoga at core power yoga. That is a lot of stretching. If your nervous don't do it. Be ready in your mind, body and soul. Make sure your healthy both mentally and physically. And if your second guessing yourself, postpone it. I have no doubt in Stein's was a master of his craft. He is double board certified and young. I interviewed some doc's that had a long list of references but they were close to 70. Forget that. I wanted a doc in his prime. Stein will do my follow up in 15 years and he will still be young enough to have a steady hand. Healing was easy because I had a clean diet before and after. On day 4, I moved to Tylenol. I had a great healing process. On day 10 when it was time to remove my stiches and staples and pegs on the top of my head, I drove myself. I didn't have any issues. During the first four days, I stuck to smoothies with organic protein, spinach, berries. Just stay in bed for four days and all will be good.
Thank you so much! Best wishes!
