So Thankful I Did This! Lower Face Lift with Under Chin Lipo - Geneva, IL

I did three interviews. Looked thru their books with their patients before and after pictures. She is very conservative. I walked into an office north of her office and the dr smelled of alcohol and his receptionists all looked "liked they all had work done". Give her a chance by meeting her and her staff. Let your conscience tell you. I also bathed it in much prayer.

Well, you look good! I will put her name on my list. Did she do any other neck work or just the lipo? I had lipo on my neck when I was 40. Saw I was turning into my mother. And had a bit more lipo done on the neck and jowls in 2011. I use Sculptra and botox, but I figure in the next few years, I will go with a neck lift (for a band around the base of my neck and tigthen up the lower face. I will be 58 this year, and rarely do people think I am that old. It's a nice feeling isn't it? How do others react to the changes?

Thank you so much for the encouragement! Seriously after surgery there was hardly no pain or swelling. the swelling went down after about two weeks. I will post newer pictures as I heal. I have my "after" pictures taken with her mid March.

That's great news! The tummy tuck pain was MUCH MUCHHH MORE than I had anticipated! Sounds like the lower lift will be a cake walk compared to the tt!! Can't wait to see more pics of your lower lift - and I cannot wait till I can get mine!! Let me know when you have more pics.

Bt the way, I had neck lipo. Although it was very helpful, I didt get the results that a lower lift will provide so I'm going for it. Some have a mid-life crisis and buy a sports car. I do body overhaul!! Lol

It's been eight weeks and I still I'm numb around my ears and down the side of my lower jaw like to the back by my ears but that is normal the doctor said it could take a few months.

The Dr. took some. I will get them and post them on my second treatment in three weeks.

Oh my goodness thank you no it's Dr. Jennifer hein I tried to change and update my profile stuff but it wouldn't let me but it's Jennifer Hein out of Geneva Illinois

I just added below

I actually find a doctor if you have a more than a 25 BMI she was willing to prescribe to me a medicine called "phentermine". I am currently on tamoxifen being cancer free for three years but it one of the side effects is weight gain.

She probably tried to look her up. I feel so bad. It's dr. jennifer hein.

Oh! Do you mean you feel bad about the doctor name? We all make mistakes and that certainly was no biggy. I was mainly wondering why the name was an issue and how she so quickly noticed. You should not feel bad at all. Your pics look great and I hope you are doing well. I am getting a bit anxious ... Mine will be Tuesday in Asheville, NC with Dr Harley. Lower face lift and upper eyes. Wishing you the best with your recovery!

I will watch for your entry after your surgery I pray that you have a wonderful experience and it will be a decision that you'll never regret!

Thanks so much. I do need prayers!! Leaving tomorrow morning and can't sit still !!!! Lol!!! Trying to make sure I have everything I need . If anything you used to help with the healing that's out of the ordinary, I would love for you to share it with me. You look great! You didn't have a whole lot of flaws to begin with . Guess we are always our worse critics. How long has it been now? You have gorgeous skin.

Well I'm excited for you to tomorrow thank you for your encouragement I just did what the doctor told me to do and I made sure to keep the wrapping on for the first few days and then I use Neosporin and then I think she it was 10 days later or maybe it was a week later that she took the staples out and that felt a lot better. That I was careful for the at least the first week not to sleep on either side of my by my ears just to try to lay flat on my back of my head. I also had to stay elevated the first week.

I am a bit concerned that my doctor does not advise the wrap . Seems I would get a much better result with it. Most everything I have read, the people wear a wrap . Thanks for the tips.
