Update two years on
Hey, everyone! I know it's been about two years since my last update.
Unfortunately, there wasn't any aha moment when I saw this was working. I passed on the third appointment. I had actually scheduled a facelift but Covid hit and the country shut down that week.
My facelift is scheduled for 10/18/2022, so I'll start another thread as I go through the process with Dr Mizuguchi.
I'm so, so excited!!! Exactly two weeks from tomorrow.

Days 4-6
The swelling has gradually diminished and my skin has started to peel. My eyes are still a bit swollen, but it gets better every day. The peeling skin brings on a different itch (healing!). I'm still red, but that's very, very slowly going away and I can see more white patches. Still seems like I have a long way to go, but I think there is some improvement. I can actually see one of my dimples that had disappeared some time last year in the vertical smile lines (hello, my friend, welcome back!).
I just keep moisturizing and waiting.

Day 3
Day 3- Things are not better. As soon as I woke up I could feel that my face was swollen. I could barely see. I looked like I’d gone a few rounds with a brick wall. The itching is awful and I’m seeing what look like whiteheads. Thankfully I knew that was a possibility. I texted my son-in-law and tell him I wouldn’t be seeing them this weekend for my daughter’s birthday celebration. The last thing I want my young grandkids to see is this face!
I filled a bag with crushed ice and water and have been just dabbing all over my neck and face all day. This seems to help a lot.
My skin feels more crusty and bumpy. I remind myself again that this may get even worse before it gets better (hopefully!).
As the day goes on into evening, I’m alternating dabs of the ice pack and moisturizing. I can see better, but the area under my eyes are still very, very swollen.
