WORTH IT$8,000
I am loving my "reconditioned" face. Most people see me, especially when I wear makeup say "WOW" They say they love that my heart operation made my eyes so blue...I just laugh. Those people that know me, know about the lift but those I don't know well, I just don't say anything. I feel like I had Santa Claus bring me the best gift of all, ME, the one I used to love to see in the MIRROR. I AM BACK, and loving it!!!! Thanks Dr. Dickerson, I couldn't have ask for better results, you are my Santa!
Hubby, without you…no words to express my love…THANKS!

Hi everyone, thought I would share another story. I had another colleague that was worried because he hadn't seen me since my open heart surgery come up and hug me. He stepped back and commented that my heart surgery really did wonders for me, I look like a new person, younger!!! I laughed as we sat and talked, then put him out of his misery, because he just kept commenting on my looks. I told him I had a facelift, when I had my right eye fixed. He laughed, and ask do you think he could fix my face. I just love the comments, they keep on coming, and the swelling keeps on leaving. I look in the mirror and sometimes think, WOW is that really me!!! thanks for reading the posts, here is me on September 15, 2014.

I was sitting working and a female colleague (who I haven’t seen since the facelift) looked at me and ask if I changed my hair. Then she said no, hair is the same. She kept looking at me saying something is very different but she can’t put her finger on it. She noticed my eye repair from the Horner’s syndrome but she just kept looking. Finally I put her out of her misery, and told her I had a facelift, and she was just thrilled, told me it took 15 yrs off my face. I could have kissed her!!!! I have told about everyone that knows me where I work that I had the facelift as I have nothing to be ashamed of; I am worth every penny I paid. I am now hearing the remarks from those that didn’t know, and it is the COOLEST thing because I wanted to look like me without looking so tired, and it worked. I am just tickled to death over the compliment.

I am considering fat transfer too. What did you think about the procedure? I guess it is early to tell the final results of it...
You look beautiful... love your skin...

So far, I have nice plump ears, a puffy face (as the swelling is not yet totally gone, as it only has been 2 weeks). I have noticed that the lines between my eyes, and my smile lines are not as deep, and my crows feet don't have as many toes, but will update as my swelling goes down.

I'm so happy for you and your results. You are worth every penny and kudos to you foe saying so!!

Thanks, all women work hard at any job they have, so we are all worth whatever it takes to feel more like we do no the inside :)

Thanks, all women should look on the outside what they feel like on the inside.

Exactly MY reasoning! My eldest dgtr really gets it, now. She saw me in a dress for the first time in many years, with a tiny waist (which I had until 4 babies later!)...my facelift + chin, eyes, brows is only 19 days post but already looks sooo nice....one look at me and she said "You SO did the right thing." I cooked dinner for a large group (have not enjoyed cooking for years) and my happiness bubbled over into pleasure even cooking!! I feel like my life is beginning all over and my husband is so thrilled for me...not because of my appearance (he is one of those dears who loves me for all good reasons) but because he can see I am happy IN MYSELF again. I cannot recommend dealing with mild deficits and genetic fat placement enough. Everyone knows to correct serious birth defects. But the recessed chin, overbite and low brows...that's just YOU. Well, no. These are from my dad's genetic background (he gave me a TON of wonderful genes, too.) He suffered with a "weak chin" probably more than I did. The saddlebag thighs, flanks, and bulging abdomen are from my mom's side: she suffered anguish for life -- at 115 lbs she still "looked fat". I weigh 150 lbs now and am only 5'1". I look fit and curvaceous. Because the deficits have been corrected. I am going to quote Writerwish: "All women should look on the outside what they feel like on the inside." You are so VERY right, Writerwish. It has changed my life at almost 65 yrs. If I only live five more years with this new body and face, it will have been worth it to have brought back my self-confidence, self-esteem, and changed my life. So many thanks to Dr Huntly at Coastal Empire PS in Savannah. He is an artist and his team could not be improved upon!!!!

I am so happy for you!!! I had my facelift not to look like someone else, but to look like what I feel like. I am loving my "new younger look," my husband also loves me for who I am (says when he looks at me he sees the 13 yr old girl he fell in love with). So this is for me. I have talked about it, looked it up, thought long and hard, but in the end I am worth it, just as you are. This isn't about others, it is about feeling good, and confident again! I am glad you are so HAPPY, in the end no amount of money should deny us that!!!

Hi there. You look absolutely stunning. I can't believe you are back to work so soon. You, are obviously a tough cookie. I am going in tomorrow for a CO2 laser full face resurfacing. I hope I am back up and running as quickly as you. I will try to document my procedure. Your journal really helps others who are planning on a similar procedure. Take care :-)

Good Luck, will keep you in my prayers. I hope you heal as fast as I do :-)
