Wow i can’t believe it’s been more than 3 years since my facelift. Yes, I am still happy with it, though I definitely see some signs of aging lately. Not just in the face but everywhere. Also, My skin which has always been oily is suddenly dry.
Overall I think that the Facelift is aging quite well. I still wish I would have had the brow lift. If I ever do this again I will do the whole face at the same time. I would definitely go back to Dr. Pearson to have anymore surgery, but I don’t have any planned at this time.
I would like to have some kind of laser treatment on my skin in the near future. Maybe Fraxel?, I just don’t know yet.Anyways..I just turned 57 and life is good.. Here some some random very recent photos from my phone..

Hard to believe it's been a year already! I'm still very happy with my face left and consider it money well spent.

You look fa-a-abulous, dahling! Your eyes really look good. No way do you look like you are in the middle years! You must be very happy.

The scar will fade in time. Just take care of it. Your ear looks really good.

I'll be going in to get BOTH of my ears fixed. The PS said he would not do the incision down the side. He's going to make a sticth inside of my ear, and make a big stitch at the base of my ear to tuck my ear lobe up. Lord help me. I think he might have mentioned a hammer and some chewing gum, but don't quote me. I have to do it within the next couple of months. I am VERY nervous about it, but it sounds like he knows how to fix them.

Remember my neck football? Well, after it finally took a hike, the skin on that part of my neck was no longer tight. Was yours like that? So-o-o I am to get Kybella in that one area. I've seen some pictures that show the after effects of the swelling. Somehow I have to figure out a way to be really unavailable, closed, sidewalks up etc. for that recovery.

Will be doing the Bellafill dance next week. What was I telling you a while back about acceptance and pulling the reins in? Yack yack yack.

Your granddaughter is adorable. What a beautiful beginning for her!

Happy happy!

Ohhh. Can't wait to hear about your Bellafill and revisions. I like the sound of no long scar like i have. I'm thinking brow lift next year. I want one more and more each day, but I try not to think about it.. It's going to be a little while.. It will be nice to have a period of time I don't have to keep traveling to Jacksonville. Yeah right now it's all about the new Grandbaby. Life is good. :)

Here's the skinny: The Bellafill was and still is wonderful. He used part of one syringe mostly in my chin dimples, and a small amount in my marionette lines. He needed to save some for my touch up (in a couple of weeks.) My chin looks so much better. Whew. I can't believe now how bad it was. It still needs more. I am so glad that he is conservative and under fills. He is so totally against the "Oh, what did you have done?" look. My marionette lines (Hi! I am a puppet!! I work at the circus!) are much better too. Hopefully there is enough magic juice left over to do more to both of those two areas. Otherwise, I'll have to pull out some more change (right).

I can't believe how easy and quick it was. Wow. That could create an addiction if one isn't careful.

When I told the doc that some people have had the ixnay on the airyfa earlobeay adjustment by way of an incision going down from the ear, he said that they must have had a face lift. Huh? I had a lower lift... I didn't ask for clarification. I am sure I will have my own set of post production issues. I am very nervous about it. Very. I worry about people seeing the stitches etc. I need to ask him how obvious it will be.

The Kybella freaks me out too, because I guess your face blows way up as in Hinderberg size. Major freak out. But I will make my appointment within the next month. Freak of nature once again... sigh.... glamourgirl to be on the other side. Hey now!

So happy about your little one. What about that gorgeous baby skin?

How is your ear doing? Is it all better now?
I had the stitch tuck of my earlobes a few weeks ago. The earlobe that was the worst, did not hold the stitch. Five days after the surgery the stitch came out. And I was super careful too. So now it looks the same as it did before. With my earlobe, I should be able to fly, right? I have to go back in January for a redo. Ug. The other one looks ok so far. But that one was not as bad.
He put some Bellafill in my chin dimples, and now I am puffy in an area where I was not supposed to be. The rest looks good. So I have started massaging the area, in the hopes that it will smooth out.
The Kybella in what once was my neck football seems to be working. Did yours completely go away?
I guess it's take 3 steps forward, and a half a step back. I suppose as long as I keep going in the right direction, right?
How's your beautiful grandbaby? :-)
