A Year and a half later ...

WORTH IT$12,000
So I thought I would give an update after a year and a half post OP. Almost every month my skin and face looks better. I feel I have grown wonderfully into my new look and my face fits. I have been so delighted with the whole experience with Dominic and his team. Dominic's work I can honestly say changed everything for me, since I have had the lift I just feel totally relaxed, whereas before I was constantly unhappy with my ageing face. Below are a variety of pictures all have been taken after a year from my surgery. They are pics with friends and my dog some of them are pro pics as I'm still modelling at the age of 50. Thanks to Dominic.

I am delighted to have met Dominic after a few years of looking for the right surgeon I found him. I can keep this very simple, if you want to be in safe hands and have the best surgery possible for your face with the best after care you could ever need, go no further. Dominic is absolutely lovely, there are not many people like him in this world but he is special. His genuine care is second to none and the team he has around him reflect his own passion for what he does. He is a master at what he does and that is why he only performs facial procedures, this impressed me muchly. I had no doubt in my consultation that I would let any other surgeon have my face. Dominic is confident, knowledgeable, professional and realistic everything I wanted in my surgeon. His team are extremely professional and Lucy his PA is an excellent ambassador for what he does and to looks after you all the way from beginning to end and more. It is two weeks now since my procedure and Dominic and Lucy have looked after me all the way, I still receive texts messages asking about my recovery and the reassurance is second to none, they have contacted me with every little doubt or worry that I have had. I never expected the care to be this high and I am absolutely delighted, my surgery is amazing I could not be more happy. Every day I wake up and look in the mirror I have a huge smile on my face. If you care about your face and your treatment and after care, go no where else. You will be in amazing hands and you will enjoy the whole procedure. This is cosmetic surgery at it's best. Thanks you Dominic for my amazing transformation.

You look wonderful. Congratulations. I'm just over the two year mark and my face is still changing. I agree with you 100%. Having this surgery is one of the best decisions and I'm so much more confident.
Thank you for the update, it's great to have one later than just a couple of months ... Has your face changed much from when you first had it done!! In other words has it sagged or relaxed much more than the first few months ? Many thanks x
You look fantastic! Was wondering how you were doing x
Hi Amandajane - your face is still amazing - glad all went well for you and you are enjoying the years Dominic has given back to you - like you he has changed how I feel about myself - we are so lucky
Well Done Amanda for being the first Braybabe to post a video....l followed your story before taking the chair myself in October 2015. So pleased to read you are still enjoying the new you. The photos say it all. [RS bleep]

Still healing well...But I am so sensative

This week I am delighted with the way my face is looking, it seems to change every week as my operation is settling, I mostly do not notice that I have had any thing done, but on the odd occasion I feel a little tug or twinge. This week I feel the need to tell you that I am incredibly sensitive in my skin, if there is the slightest bite or itch I feel it more strongly than anyone else (I have had this problem most of my life, my skin is super super sensitive, which is why I have continued this profile, if I feel anything then I believe it can help others, plus it's cathartic for me to. So to this week have felt quite itchy but that does not last very long, just have to resist scratching it, as I am a scratcher, when I start to itch it can sometimes effect other areas of my body to, this has happened in the past after I have had a tattoo, so I was expecting it anyway. I also notice that my scars are sensitive this week to and are weeping a little. I texted Dominic and again he is very reassuring and always puts my mind at rest. All in all I feel great and my skin feels good, I can still feel all the healing going on, so I am a happy bunny. Dominic has also prescribed me with face cream called OBAGI and my skin looks quite glowy. Just for fun, I was at dinner with my friends and family the other night and we were discussing conspiracy theories so my friend made me a special aluminium hat to protect me from the cosmos rays LOL , I thought you would like to see this pic, I have no make up on and I think I look super young. Whoop!

Hi Amanda Jane, I was just thinking about you yesterday. I'm having my morning coffee, opened RS to see what is going on and here you are. I absolutely love your hat, not only will it keep you safe from alien rays but the sun too. As always you're looking wonderful. It's nice to know that you aren't having any problems and that Dominic is always there for you. My date for FL is coming up shortly. I've been given skinMedica as a facial regimen, but I don't think it will help with the butterflies in my stomach. I've heard of Obagi before and I'm glad it is helping with your skin. I think we forget what trauma our faces & necks have gone through, I can imagine how great you're going to look in 6 months. I too have super sensitive skin breaking out in hives from cold wind or sweaty hot weather :( It is always so good to hear from you and your beautiful upbeat outlook. Take care and keep in touch.
Thank you very much, you must be getting very excited. Is this your first consultation or are you going for an OP.
OP scheduled March 6.
You look gorgeous and that's without make up too! If the wind goes anywhere near my ears, it's a big 'ouchie" And my scalp and tops of ears get so itchy and I have to stop myself from scratching and starting something off. I could do with with of those hats.
Yes me too, tops of my ears are really itchy and scalp too, although I wish you were not itchy, I glad I'm not the only one, this is truly a journey eh!
You look great, so young, amazing! Could you do another video? Enjoyed watching those. :=)
How are you now?
excellent results he has kept the softness in your looks ; you look much younger but in a natural way ; we don't want the donatellla Versace look . He is truly skilled but such long waiting lists to see him and have op
Well I can assure you he is very worth the wait he is such a skilled man.

BEAUTIFUL!!! You look so natural and young. How are your scars healing? I understand you had the brow lifted at the same time. Where aboust are the incisions, are they in the scalp area?
My brow lift was performed in the same incision so there was no extra incisions.
That's interesting to know, was it by endoscopic? I'm plucking up courage to have a face lift including the brow area, but have been put off when researching at how invasive some brow lifts can be, with big scars in some cases. I've been told endoscopic procedures are not as long lasting. It would seem your surgeon is a true genius if he's used your face lift to combine the procedures to minimize more scarring. From your initial consultation how long did you have to wait for the op? I'm thinking it's better to have it for myself in the colder months.
Hi,thanks for the pics,you look great! I have my consultation with Dominic in April and can't wait ! How are you feeling now? You look so natural and definitely look like you are in your twenties!! Take care x
Exciting stuff eh. Yes I am feeling great. Everyday brings different challenges that are all a part of the process, but this is a journey.
They're going to ask for ID when you go to get drinks young lady !! You look amazing Amanda xx
That will be fun.
Hi, I agree if you were in the US no way you would get into a pub without checking your ID. You look absolutely wonderful.
Thank You I feel great.
You look super cute!
Indeed!
Thanks Melissa.
