10 Days Post Operative and Am Loving the Results

I am so sorry that it has taken me this long to post an update; I am quilty of living!
It has been 8 months since my facelift, necklift and lip lift. Although ideally I would like more off the lip lift, I am very happy with the new improved me. I will probably consider a few tweaks for this or that (laser under the eyes) in the near future but for now I'm enjoying the results I have. I have about 90% of the feeling back on the sides of my face, my lip lift scar is not very noticeable and can be covered completely with light foundation but I usually don't wear much makeup unless going out. I do have a couple of small b-b sized bumps on one side of my neck - possibly internal stitches? Will ask my dr. on upcoming visit.

7 mo. post op. Although still happy with the improvement I do feel the jowls have dropped and the lip lift dropped maybe 1-2 mm. I still have a long philtrum but this is so much better than the 22mm initially. Considering a corner lip lip now (or juvederm) and maybe even the nose bridge - as I stated earlier I have a retracted nose tip from basal cell cancer flap 10 yrs ago. All in all I am happy and content as I don't dwell on any of this, however, if small steps can be taken to improve balance along the way why not. At first I was so reluctant to show pics but I do feel sharing this might help someone else along the way in their decision making processes. I will continue to see Dr. M for any of my concerns as he and his office have been very professional and honest with input.

So, just to give another view here is a comparison before and soon after, not smiling. Soft and natural. Very, very happy with the improvement in skin laxity, distance b/t nose and upper lip better, both upper and lower lips plumper with the dermal graft (was not painful at all by the way). Overall more roundness without as much hollowness.
