Today is Day 19. Most of the swelling has gone down and I don't feel self-conscious about going out now that I can wear makeup. The scar under my nose is growing fainter every day and I love the results - just wish it had been more. I guess we always think that. I am starting to think that the fat transfer will take but my hands are still swollen a little. I will post pictures when the swelling goes down a little more.

You look great, love the fringe on you! The lip lift made a huge difference, good call. You are about 3 weeks, which was when I was most pleased with my facelift last year. the swelling you mentioned is volumizing and youthful. When mine went down I started noticed the lines and creases coming back, but I don't really see any in your before pics so lucky you! Also, re the fat transfer, it's really important to not loose any weight the first 90 days, and eat carbs. I lost weight and lost all the fat, recently redid the FT and am quite pleased, looks like it's going to come out like I expected the first time (fingers crossed lol). You look great, I will be following your journey, congrats!

Thanks! It is so nice for all the support on RS. I was scared but since I'd been through most of it before I knew that the end would be worth it. I feel more like myself everyday but I think when you start this journey that you have to have reasonable expectations. And hopefully a doctor that listens and will followup with you if there are issues.

You look beautiful, are you still happy with the results a year later? I know it takes awhile for all the swelling to go down, it took me about a year :)

Thanks. I am happy with the facelift but wish there had been more removed during the lip lift. I think almost everybody feels that way.

Some stitches came out today. I still have some swelling but everything is progressing great! Dr. Geppert has been great and so has her staff. I would highly recommend her.

You looking wonderful. She did a great job on your lip and neck especially. Is there a protocol to help fat survive in the hands? Would you post photos in a few months of your hands for us? Thanks.

I will try to get pictures of my hands but they are still swollen a little. I'll wait a little longer before I take any pictures of my hands. So far I have hopes that the fat will stay.

Oh I want to do this, would you consider starting a review just for the hands? I have looked for one, it's very hard to find info and pics are almost impossible... Thanks!

I'm doing fine. Just tender where the incisions are. My lip is still very swollen but I think it's going to be fine. I go back this Friday to get stitches out - most of them anyway.
