10 weeks post-op

Scarring from incisions are still red and left a bit of an indent but i am still hopeful that overtime they will look better. I am not wearing silicone patches anymore and just my Aveda concealer makeup and keeping my face out of the sun. I see my cheeks continue to go down in volume and some craters are still left but i see some improvement. As the swelling subsides i see a bit of what was left behind around my mouth area on the right side which i wanted to be gone. I am hoping that in time it will get better. I will keep you updated. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHETHER I SHOULD GET A CHEMICAL PEEL OR NOT? I am not 100% satisfied just yet on my skin's texture and color. Even though Dr Sadove did a great job, i feel like there should have been more change after such an intense procedure. Maybe in time it will get better.

A little dry still. Some blotches of redness. Stopped antibiotics this morning. Going to leave aquaphor of most of my face except patchy red spots for today and see how tight or dry it feels without it.

The staff is unbelievably brilliant with going above and beyond to help you get the best results and feel at ease. Dr Shapiro and the medical chief, Christina, were there for me throughout the night being that I was concerned and in pain. When I woke up in the morning I had messages from both of them making sure I was doing better and what my face looked and felt like. He did it just as I asked for, aggressively as possible so that this can be my last treatment and he wants me to get great results. It really eases any worries I have. Having an attentive dr as well as with superb bedside manner is so important and I can't stress this enough. Not only does he prepare the room to make you feel comfortable but he also continues to ease your fears and calm you throughout the procedure. When picking a Dr for cosmetic procedures, it's utmost important to have a highly skilled Dr such as Dr Shapiro but post op is when you realize you need a Dr that really cares about his patients and checks on them continuously. My mom is getting her eyes done there. I've been a patient of there's since 2012 and I live 90 minutes away from them and I refuse to go elsewhere. The staff really makes Tribecca Medistatics the best cosmetic surgery company by far. I've been to many and nothing beats their service, Dr Shapiro's compassion and bedside mannerisms and everyone's smiles as well as their constant encouragement and the clean and calming workplace that they all work together to maintain.
