Fantastic results - I look at least 15 years younger and it feels terrific

WORTH IT
3/4 & side photos requested. The scars in front of my ears are invisible. Longest to heal is the back of the ear but nobody sees them. The comments from friends is that I look like I lost weight in my face and 'rested'. I still look like myself only better & younger and that is why Dr Harley is such an amazing surgeon. He even has people coming from other countries.

You look fantastic!
Thank you
Thank you!
You look incredible! How much was it?
Dr Harley has raised his price to $8900. Its worth it.
wow ..quite an increase ..disappointing almost as much as the standard facelift ...JMHO ...
Wow! That's incredibly inexpensive!! I recently paid $7000 for fat transfer into my face. But then, that's in California where it costs an arm and a leg to live.
Gosh!!! That IS incredibly high now; I'm so disappointed ... $8900? Plus my having to fly RT from the W. Coast and hotel, etc. .... ?
You look amazing
Thank you!
Wow, what a beautiful job

Before & After

Ok so I finally figured out how to update my post. For those who have been asking, here is my before & after photo. I'm three months out now and beginning to feel my face again which is great. I couldn't be happier with my results.

Your before pic truly now shows the incredible change - stunning. Why and for what areas did you need the fillers? Doesn't that mean you will need more as time progresses?
I would only hope to look as great as you at 72! Wow!
Thank you! Don't know why I didn't do this sooner
Thought I replied already. Needed filler in my lips & cheeks. A lot of purse string lines around my lips. Keep in mind that a lift can change the shape of your face & neck nut you need fillers for lines.
Yes you will need periodic fillets gor lines & contour

Fantastic Results

I have followed Dr. Harleys work since he began practice in Asheville and was so impressed at his outcomes. When contemplating a facelift you always think whether you will really look like yourself afterward. So at 72 I finally decided I couldn’t wait any longer and had a face & neck lift with fillers. I felt nothing during the procedure and very minimal postop pain, just pulling from swelling & tightness. Dr. Harley is kind, compassionate, available and very skilled. It is now 6 wks and I couldn’t be more pleased. I look at least 15 years younger and it feels terrific to look in the mirror again. I do recommend you follow all preop and postop instructions to minimize bruising and promote healing. I slept in a recliner for 32 nights and highly recommend this. Since the lymphatic drainage for the face is temporarily interrupted you may feel tingling on changing positions and by all means try to keep from looking down and wear the tapes on the incisions. All in all, the doctor & staff were terrific and this was very worth the cost.

It's brilliant to read about your experience and tips too! Thanks for sharing :)

Hard to believe I waited so long. If I knew how good it would be I would have done it much sooner.
72???? Oh wow! More than 15 years younger! I don't know what you looked like before but after is fantastic! Congratulations!
Thanks! I did post a before & after.
Oh thanks. I just see the one photo, regardless you look great!
Thanks for your helpful review. I couldn't find your before photo, but you look terrific now! I live in the midwest but keep coming back to Dr. Harley. Thanks for sharing!
I never even considered another surgeon. I think he’s the best!
