Morning of surgery, Excited to get this done. I have 10 days to recover before I have to go back to work. Many of my RN friends have had different procedures with Dr. Koohbehi & they all look fabulous!! I'm having to remind myself that this is surgery & will take quite a while to heal & recover. All ready????

Congrats on your surgery! Looking great!! You must be thrilled :-)
April 14, 2016
Thank you!! It's a slow process. I can't wait to see how much of the swelling is gone in another 4 weeks
April 15, 2016
Thank you!! It's a slow process with the healing. I am hoping that during the next 4-6 weeks that most of the swelling will resolve.
April 22, 2016
You look beautiful!!!
April 23, 2016
Thank you!! It's a work in progress with the swelling. I'm looking forward to see how I look at 8 weeks post op.

Did you have a fat transfer anywhere else other than your forehead? You look beautiful.
May 6, 2016
Thank you!! Yes I had fat transfer to my lips & cheeks. Dr Khoobehi lipoed my lower abdomen for the fat cells.

I can't get video to open for some reason. How did he fix neck did he tighten bands?? Hard to see your neck for hair lol I have been for consult just trying to make final decision.

My neck bands were righted & sutured to the platysmal bands. I had a full lower face & neck lift.
May 9, 2016
Sorry about the typo/ it should read tightened & sutured.
May 9, 2016
Got video to open great thank you how are the scars
May 9, 2016

What was the name of the surgery you had? A neck lift? Or a mini lift. It wasn't a full face lift with eyes done too right. Because I'm haveing a neck lift otherwise called a Mini Rhytidectomy. With fat injections.

I had a full lower face & neck lift wth lipo under my chin & buccal fat removed too. Nothing done to my eyes, nose or forehead.

My PS is calling mine a mini Face Lift, with Lipo under the chin! from there he will use that fat from under the chin, on jowling area. I think my mini lift is the same thing as yours basically, it's without anything done to the eyes, nose or forehead also.

Are you having the platysmal bands tightened? I had that done. My lower face & neck lift was not a mini lift. I looked horrible before & I had to have the platysmal bands sutured on my neck. I could even now use some "tweeking," but will wait & see down the road. I have so much sun damage was such a skin abuser the first 52 years of my life. Thank goodness I never was a smoker too!!

I would assume my PS meant tightening...muscle. He's tightening something under there, I thought it was muscle? But I don't think he mentioned that term with me... platysmal band. But I will ask his nurse tomorrow!!! Thanks!!

you look terrific, are you doing any post op massaging or has the dr recommended anything else to help reduce swelling at this point? I am 16 days post surgery and am anxious to get rid of the rest of swelling. Thanks for posting
April 15, 2016
Thank you!! I'm not massaging, although my dr said it would be ok to do so. What has helped, comfort wise, is to take an Ozarka water bottle out of the frig & roll it up & down my neck. Those bottles have a nice curve & soft plastic. I will be excited to see how everything shapes up in another 4 weeks!! Hang in there :)

April 18, 2016
Thank you!! It's not been horrible, but not too pleasamt. Patience & support or so important in making it through the first several weeks! Good luck!!
April 18, 2016

April 18, 2016
