3.5 Months Later - My 60th Birthday Gift for Myself, Thank You FaceLift Mexico!

Thank you all for your wonderful feedback!
I feel great and I almost forgot that I looked much different few months ago! This my new face, and the only face, I want to see every morning!
The feedback from my friends is also very positive, and on average, people think I'm in my early forties!
If any of you readers hesitate to make the decision, please don't! You will never look back.
All what remains me my old face is my 100 scarfs I bought to cover my "turkey" neck (which are now useless)!
Thank you FaceLift Mexico again!

It started from my always tired-looking eyes. I...

It started from my always tired-looking eyes. I hated having heavy lids because they made me
look many years older! My face didn't match my energy and youthful and active lifestyle.
My first consultation about my eyelids made me realize that addressing only this area would not
change my appearance. I needed a Full Face Lift!
I did a fair amount of research online before coming to the conclusion that the package offered
by FaceLift Mexico has the best value with combo of procedures, safety record and
accreditation of the surgeon, Dr. Koelliker.
My communication with the founder of FaceLift Mexico, Pat Marino, was excellent. She quickly
answered all emails and called a few times to explain step by step what was going to happen. I
found this very important to keep me more comfortable and less nervous.
The procedure involving a temporal forehead lift, upper/lower lids, mid face and neck lift (SMAS)
was scheduled on March 21, 2017. Dr. Koelliker addresses each of his clients individually to
determine with them what is needed. In my case Dr. K. also suggested the fat transfer from my
neck to lower eyelids, upper lips and a bit to lines "11" on the forehead. I totally trusted Dr.
Koelliker's recommendations; reading reviews of others I knew his "artistic" skills will take away
many years from my face. I also have to mention Doctor's impressive professionalism, kind and
gentle approach, which made me feel I had honest, genuine care with a focus on my surgery and the recovery.
After 3 nights in a private hospital room, my recovery continued in San Migule's Spa Club Casa
Marino. This was such a very nice healing place, with very kind staff and a lovely Mexican
decoration. Pat Marino and Fabiola were very welcoming, and the home-cooked meals were
wonderful. My diet is not very common, but I was pleased that Fabiola found the way to satisfy
my preferences. I felt very well cared for.
Dr. Koelliker removed my stitches himself one day before my leaving.
By then, I already visited the town and explored the most interesting places!
It's been 3 weeks after the surgery, and I continue to heal well. The bruises are almost gone
and so is the swelling.
I strongly recommend Dr. Koelliker and Spa Club Casa Marino services. I'm very happy with
my new look already, although, I know the best results are after 3 months.
My pictures show the progress for now.
Don't be afraid, go for it!!!

Dr. Koelliker was extremely professional with a very warm personable approach. All my questions were answered in a way that there was no doubts what was going to happen to me before, during and after the surgery. During my recovery, the doctor was always available by phone. All stages of my healing were explained to me before I left Casa Marino and I knew what to expect next few weeks. I couldn't wish for a better doctor!
