Dec 5 2010 - Had a visit with my MD on 12/3/10. Unfortunately, I have to go back in for surgery for a revision on the neck/jowl area.
I was hoping the problem would correct, but in just over 8 months post op, the problem did not correct.
I'll be doing the correction under general anesthesia on 12/28/10 SIGH.
Keep your fingers crossed that everything turns out good.

Believe it or not, I'm post op 7 months and STILL healing. Can you believe it? I am very happy with the outcome.
In front of my ears on the sides of my cheeks are still a tiny bit hard and healing, as well as behind the ears and under the chin.
I may have to go back for surgery for a tiny correction on the neck but we shall see what happens when I go for my Dec 2 appointment.

Thanks so much for continuing to update your journey, from surgery to recovery. Happy to hear you're happy! Are you willing to share pics?

I am shy but eventually the doc might put up0 the pics, but no9t associated with a name. I guess i'm about 6 or7 months from the procedure and everything is fine, but I could have done the neck too but was worried about the pain that some people have with that. I am very conservative about how I want to look, haha I just don't want to look "overdone" ?
Now my jawline is cleaner and I look fresher, less tired, and that is good. ox

So glad you are happy. The pain isn't that bad when the neck is done. You should have let them do it while you were out. There is no more pain with the neck than there is with the rest of the face lift. In fact, it wasn't painful for me, just slightly uncomfortable. Good luck. Glad you are happy.

thanks, and I was reading some reports from patients that said the neck was the worst - in pain. But I can still consider that in the future. And I am pain sensitive, so I took the pain med regularly until I was through the most painful stage. i worked in the medical field for about 12 years and know some people are more sensitive, or maybe i'm just a baby, whine , haha i don't like pain. Funny thing too is I had natural childbirth for second child and no drugs was great. But first child was an 18 hour horror story, ending with forceps, but almost a C section. ugggg.
I had bruising and advise people to take the vitamin c and other prescribed natural vitamins to help you heal well. But I sure was glad to have my friend an RN come and stay with me during the first week. She drove and timed meds, etc.. big help!Thanks and good luck to you!

oops also need to tell you that I have had Limelight treatments on my neck and chest. That has helped get rid of the discolartions and redness. I was on swim team for years and always lived with a pool, and very fair skin. I'm trying to age gracefully. LOL
Best part of the work result is that my eyes are back and my chin line is smooth. I may do the brow lift and neck in the future but haven't decided yet. i thought about getting some lipo on the body but read some very bad reports and although I have just 2 areas to be done, I'm afraid. Very worried about the uneven results some people are getting.
