Hello All,
I have been wanting a FL for some time, but my bad habits were holding me back. Quit smoking in January and I am good to go.
Getting a Face lift and Brow lift. PS says I am a perfect candidate for a Brow lift.
I had an upper bleph and submental liposuction done by same DR in June 2012 and he didn't recommend any eye work at this time.
Of course, everyone says I look great and I don't need it. Blah. I feel that I do.
It is going to be a 5 hour surgery. I have a borderline bleeding disorder, but all lab results were normal. Dr. will start with brow lift and if there are issues, he will not do face lift.
Will post pics after surgery.

I am 42 and I can honestly say that you are very young looking, and also very pretty. Most women our age would be happy to look as you currently do. BUT- it is YOUR face and I do not know how you looked in your youth. If you know you would be happier with the "improvements" and you have a surgeon who will only do right by you- I say go for it- enjoy it- and don't look back!! Best of luck

I had my first facelift at 46 and now at 70 am still continuing with facelifts
For me its always been the best option and if you have a good surgeon he won't do it unless he thinks that he will get good results
Go Girl !!

Anxiety is escalating.

I have one night to go and then is the big day. I have the wedge pillow, arnica montana, button down shirt, bacitracin, ice packs and soft foods to eat. I am still very anxious and hoping I am doing the right thing. I totally trust my DR, so that helps, but I am not sure I trust my healing ability. Here are some before pics.

I had a temporal brow lift and lower facelift this year. All went well. I feel that this was money well spent! I look much younger, and feel so much more confident. Did you post pix? You can see my photos on my page...ransrvr!!!
