5 weeks post-op (previous were 3 weeks post-op)
WORTH IT
Previous photos were 3 weeks post-op. This is now 5 weeks post-op. I
was unsure that I would be able to attend the company holiday party as it was just 5 weeks after my surgery. VOILA!!! Swelling has gone down significantly. I still have some swelling and tightness around my ears, and under my chin/neck. The sutures on my scalp have dissolved. The top of my head is still numb, but slowly getting feeling back. It goes unnoticed unless I touch my head. All is going well.

Dr. Gould - Pronounced Gold? Good? God? All of the Above!
I was really nervous and rather exhausted to go in for yet another consultation (I had MANY, which left me with greater hesitance) to correct a previous blepharoplasty I had with another surgeon 2 years prior that left me unsatisfied with exacerbated asymmetry and lower brows, but since I was referred by a family friend to Dr. Gould, I chose to consult with him (not to mention that I was tired of hiding). Dr. Gould listened to my concerns and my wishes. It was a lengthy consultation; he really afforded me undivided attention thoroughly explaining his surgical techniques. Dr. Gould has a calm demeanor, which put me at ease and made me feel safe. Dr. Gould is a board-certified plastic surgeon and has a Ph.D. so he is also a scientist, which results in matchless efficacy. The depth and quality of information he provided left me feeling so assured, I was confident I was in good hands and scheduled my surgery that very day to correct my dissatisfaction; I went with a full facelift.
Post-Surgery:
Simply the BEST. I didn’t have any pain and minimal bruising. Dr. Gould is evidently skilled! He is professional and yet personable. The significant time and care that Dr. Gould dedicates to his patients AFTER surgery is truly immeasurable. I am genuinely in disbelief that after just 3 weeks I was out and about in public settings and I know it is only going to get better. Family, friends and even strangers have commented on my younger, natural results. My self-confidence has been elevated to a whole new level that I have not felt in a long time. Dr. Gould exceeded my expectations. I’m truly, truly grateful to Dr. Gould, his wonderful staff and the family friend that referred him.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Congrats on your great results :)
You're welcome. I literally hid for 2 years (under sunshades, hair or stayed home). I am so happy and I'm still healing a little every day.
Nice!
Thanks for hating.. what was the combined cost for you?
Absolutely gorgeous results!!!
You look wonderful!! How are you feeling now? Has the numbness and swelling subsided??? I’m recuperating now 5weeks and I have the exact symptoms! I can’t wait to feel normal again.
