3 years after lower facelift

Couldn't be happier with my neck and jaw line. So happy I did this 3 yr ago. Amazing to me that even when I put on pounds, my neck and chin stay firm. I am now 69 years old and very often given background acting jobs for younger

Update 2 year after. Still happy

It's been 2 years and I am so glad I did this. My neck is still nice and firm, jowls just barely. I am 68 now and have more confidence than ever. I started doing background acting in ATL area last summer and have been in 27 movies/shows and am happy with what I see. When a scene requires a couple, I am usually matched with a younger man.

3 weeks after

Very happy w how fast I am healing and my nice tight neck.

My facelift was 4-30-18. I am on day 5 now and is amazing to me the changes day by day. I had decided when I turned 60 that I would like to do something about the jowls and turkey neck that were beginning. I found RealSelf.com and started reading others experience and gaining advice. I had decided on Dr Harley in NC but decided against after learning he does not sedate, only pills to make you sleep. The valium only makes me hyper and more alert which is something my sis and I share. That would be a nightmare to experience in my opinion. I saw 3 Dr near me in N Ga and felt most comfortable with James Leake at Plastic Surgery Center of the South in Marietta Ga.A neighbor of a friend who had neck lift done was happy and her being a nurse gave made me trust her choice. Myself and 3 friends got free consults from him and 2 had their facelifts 6 mo ago. They both look amazing. I asked Dr Leake if he would discount, that I wanted to share my experience on RealSelf.com and he took $1,200 off to make it $8,396.00 for 2 Layer MACs w Lipo to neck and Jowls. That price was good for 6 mo. Unfortunately I had to get 3 teeth worked on and had flu 3 times which delayed my facelift. Then the friend that had not had hers done yet called to say Dr Leake was retiring and she got his last surgery date 5-30-18. I called right away and got another consult and price had gone up to $8,831.00. Price had gone up $400. I got appointment for 4-30-18. My blood pressure was high each ofc visit so was told no surgery until down for 2 weeks. Went to GP and put on BP Meds and potassium as Dr Leake nurse suggested. Had to get BP and Potassium blood work rechecked before they would approve surgery. I appreciated their carefulness. Let me end here and find picture to upload.
