POSTED UNDER Mini Facelift Reviews
I’m 63 and ready to get rid of my jowls and saggy neck!
UPDATED FROM battsl
4 week Post Op
WORTH IT$6,901
Its been four weeks since my surgery. I’m slowly healing but starting to feel normal, less tender not so numb. I’m not to happy with the scar under my chin, and Dr. Harley is aware of my concerns. I will keep him updated and hopefully with his help it will be resolved within time. I have to remind myself its only been four weeks. Posting new pictures as I continue to heal.

Two weeks post opt.
14 days out since my surgery. I’m still sleeping upright and every day feels better. Still a bit bruised under my chin but my sutures are healing well. The back of my left ear is more sensitive than the other, and my right cheek is more swollen than the left not sure if that’s normal but I know healing takes time. I’ve been resting and trying to eat healthy, still taking Arnica and Bromelain along with fresh blueberries & pineapple. So far still good and I’m very happy!

You really look great! Can you tell me the approximate cost of the mini facelift.
Hi treeseelee1, Thank you! But from what I’ve read the prices have gone up since my surgery. Here’s his website click and scroll down for the up to date cost. https://www.harleymd.com/mini-lift.shtml
I hope this helps you.
You're looking fabulous. Thanks so much for sharing your photos and experience. I look forward to seeing updates as you heal. All the best!
Hi Lisa507, you’re so sweet thank you for your positive comment. My sutures are healing great. I plan on posting pictures next week, it will be my 1st month Post Op. Thanks again
Can you tell me what type of anesthesia you had? Thank you
Hi eindhoven3, I was given enough oral sedatives so that I slept threw the whole procedure. I wouldn’t of had it any other way. Didn’t feel a thing.
Wow, you look great, younger and refreshed! Looks like you are healing well, incisions look fantastic. I don't know about you, but I was not looking forward to sleeping upright, however at almost 2 years post procedure I still do it at as it really does help minimize facial swelling/puffiness...love my wedge pillow! :)
Hi lynn1211, Thank you! Yes my incisions are healing well. I still have some numbness around the ears and under my chin, also my right cheek is still a little swollen. I hope it goes down soon. No, I wasn’t looking forward to sleeping upright either but I am. I just find the wedge pillow uncomfortable. Still wrestling with pillows. It’s amazing how a little lift can change how you feel about yourself. I’m feeling very happy and grateful! I’ll be posting more pictures next week for my first month post op.
Looking forward to your pictures next week!

There they are, see the newest photos. Really nice!!!
Thanks, I’ve definitely been feeling different parts of my face react differently. Other than that Just feeling tired.
How long did it take for you to feel normal? Skin is still tight.
It takes some time for numbness and swelling and tight spots. It sort of shifted around as I was healing. At least several weeks to several months. Probably in a few more weeks you won’t be noticing as much as now.
