WORTH IT
For the past couple of years I've noticed my face becoming more squarish and less heart shaped. I don't have a lot of sagging or loose skin yet, but I'm not happy with the more masculine shape my face is morphing into. I'm scheduled for a mini facelift on December 1st. I will also have lipo under my chin and around my jaw line.
I've considered this for a long time. I've had various fillers with various levels of satisfaction. At this point it just seems like fillers are a waste of money, especially since they have not given me te results I want. So, after multiple consultations I've decided to go for it. I'm so excited, yet unbelievably nervous.

I got all my scripts (antibiotics, painkillers and such) and supplies today. I bought arnica gel and tablets. Hopefully that will keep me from bruising too bad. I also bought a travel pillow to help me sleep on my back. I think I'm good to go!

Hang in there. We are in this war against aging together. The swelling is a little scary, and I must have looked in the mirror much too often during those days; however, it's worth it. Just remember, you can do this! Just get past this part, and you come out ready to take on the world.

Thank you for the words of encouragement. You're a doll. I really needed some positive vibes. You made my day!

xo Thank you. Consider it a sisterhood of hope and new beginnings. If you are ever feeling down, keep in mind that 2017 is YOUR year! You can do anything. You've made it! Rest, watch Hallmark Christmas movies, and forget about taking care of anyone except you. My thoughts are with you. I can't wait to see your after pic soon.

Thanks love! I was so nervous for my surgery, but it's been much easier than I imagined. The first 2 days are kind of rough, but after that it gets easier.
I recommend having some soft foods in hand- soup, pudding, ice cream and such. I didn't realize how hard it would be to eat the first few days, lol.
I'll be sending some good vibes your way on the 15th!

Mummified and on the other side

Well it's all done. I had my surgery at 8:00am. Everything went smoothly and now I'm home. I'm so happy to have it over with. Now, I just need to concentrate on healing and recuperating. I had general anesthesia, so I can't really say what the process was like, as I slept through the whole procedure.
Right now still feel really groggy and nauseous from the general anesthesia, but I'm not in pain, my ears do feel a bit tender, but not painful. I'll go back tomorrow to get the mummy wrap off. I can't wait to see what's going on underneath all this wrapping.
