A Master Artist Who Changed my Life!
Quite simply and honestly - Peter changed my life! At 50, my face was starting to show the effects of sun loving, and filler and tox was no longer able to carry the heavy load. I have ptosis in my left eye and this was worsening too. Then in early 2022, I developed serious hyperthyroidism and Graves disease and lost a lot of weight as a result, very quickly. This really ravaged my face and I lost a lot of fat and volume, and got really jowly. For quite some time, the face looking back at me in the mirror was almost unrecognisable from the person I felt inside. I became more withdrawn and anti-social and felt like I was becoming a grumpy old woman.
I did a lot of research and after several recommendations for Peter from trusted colleagues in the medi-aesthetics field, I made an appointment to see him. After my first meeting I knew Peter was the right surgeon and they were the right team for me, I didn't need to look any further. Warm, friendly and gentle in his approach, Peter was honest and realistic about the results we could achieve, which made me feel really comfortable. I had had a neck lift some years earlier which had failed, so I was really anxious that my necklift would work this time, and I was worried about visible scarring. I really needn't have worried, but the comprehensive and real photos on his website made me feel much more at ease, along with lots of honest discussion. And 4.5 months post surgery, my scars are invisible and my neck looks sooooo good!
Delayed by covid and my Graves disease, finally in April this year (2023) I had my surgery - a full facelift and necklift, with blepharoplasty and ptosis repair, as well as fat grafting. I wasn't at all nervous as I had such trust in Peter. St John of God hospital in Geelong was fabulous, and the nursing staff there are first class! I awoke after surgery and felt groggy, but great. I really felt virtually no pain at all through the entire healing process. I bruise really badly and the bruising at the fat graft sites was quite colourful, but faded within the month, and my scars were almost invisible within a few weeks. The day after surgery when the bandages came off...I cried, a LOT. Looking back at me in the mirror was the reflection of the person I felt inside. I finally felt harmony between the internal and the external. My healing was a breeze and I followed all instructions to the letter, sleeping upright and then on raised pillows for the first few weeks, massaging my face and using the rose quartz roller daily. After a month, I started having lymphatic drainage facials which really helped with swelling, and a healthy diet with lots of water meant my swelling was barely noticeable even to me after about 2 months
The ladies at the practice - Christine, Jess, Joyce, Brooke and Bronwyn - are all just divine! They genuinely care and made coming into the clinic for check-ups a fun experience with their warmth and interest in my progress. Jess is an absolute artist when it comes to make-up! It's now almost 5 months since surgery, and I can't even remember how the 'old' me looked and felt (except when I look at pics and then it's hard to believe that was actually me!). I no longer shy away from looking in the mirror, and my confidence and thirst for life is back. Peter is quite simply a master at his craft, but not just that, he has a lovely manner and energy and made the entire process a positive one. I wouldn't let another surgeon other than Peter touch my face and neck again, so please keep on practicing for a loooong time Peter!
