One Year Later
Its been a full year now since I had my facelift so I thought it was time to do a follow up.
Dr Royce has monitored me the entire time with my progress and recovery. She is a very caring Doctor making sure her patients are happy. The staff are also very nice and very professional.
She did a Juvederm filler about 6 months ago at the sides of my mouth where I had marionette lines and I have been very happy with the results.
I still do not have complete feeling back at the sides of my face from my ears to my chin, my ears and on parts of my head. Dr Royce has assured me that it will return.
On one area where I had the infection at the side of my head, I do have a small bald area where my hair did not grow back. I did lose about a third of the thickness of my hair and also breakage so I have been taking Biotin, Hair, skin and nails vitamins, and shampoo and conditioners to strengthen my hair which I find does help. I find that my hair is growing and I am not losing as much hair as I was before.
My photos show the results now with and without makeup. Although the road to recovery has been challenging, I am mostly happy with the results. I did expect a better result with my eyes, but in hindsight I realize that in order to have got the results I had wanted I would have needed a brow lift.
I have received many compliments saying I do not look my age at 67 so I have achieved what I set out to do.

May 25th to June 3rd
Its been a long road to get here but finally this month I have been able to not have to wear a head band to hide my scars. The scars are still there and my hair is slowly growing and the scars are not as visible.
The head band was actually breaking my hair in places so my hair is still pretty fragile. Dr Royce did several laser heat treatments to promote circulation at my scar areas and I am taking extra strength Hair, skin and nails vitamins and also Viviscal. I am not sure how the Viviscal is yet as it takes about 3 months before you see results. It is suppose to promote existing hair growth. Here is hoping!!
I had filler put around my lips and to the right side of my mouth where my marionette lines were. I am happy with the result but sorry that it won't be permanent. Overall I am very happy with my face and neck but still a little disappointed with my eyes. They do look better than they did though.
Dr Royce has been wonderful during this whole process and has constantly monitored my progress. I am very happy with the service received.

Week 13
13 Weeks Post Op
It was only just over a week ago that my scabs on the side of my head finally healed. It has been a long road. My scars are still seen visibly so I wear a head band when I go out as I am very self conscious of them.
Dr Royce has been very supportive and has started a laser heat treatment for a few weeks to stimulate my hair growth. I have been seeing her on a weekly basis mostly, other than when I was out of town for a few weeks. I have still been losing my hair but not as much as before. My hair now is very thin. Where my scarring is the hair has just started to grow so here is hoping that I get my full head of hair back. It can take up to 12 months.
This week I had Juvederm filler on the marionette lines which I still had after the surgery and above my lips which I will show later after the swelling and bruising pass.
I am using Siligen daily to fade my scars on my eyes and the front and back of my ears which appears to help.
I am very happy with my neck and jowls but am still waiting to see the final results of my eyes as they still feel tight and I need to be able to see my eye lids which was the purpose of the full face lift and upper bleph.
I still have numbness around my face from the cheek bones back to my ears. I have more feeling on my left side than my right but they are at the prickly stages where the feeling is coming back slowly. I still have a recurring scab at the back of my head from where the tube was and hope that heals soon. It will be a joy when I can feel it normal again.
I am keeping positive and looking forward when I can feel normal and be seen without a head band etc and can color my hair. Till next time..
