Neck Lift with Only Local Anesthesia

2 Year Anniversary Photos
WORTH IT$7,500
This is my second year anniversary almost to the day. Still the best decision ever. I wear necklaces & chokers and never worry about what my neck looks like when looking down. I still highly recommend!
Also, with pricing - please contact Dr. Harleys office, everyone asks and I think he is still under $10k but it also depends on what you need. Mine 2 years ago was a bit less expensive but he is worth every penny.
He is also worth the travel, lots of people have said they "hope" to find someone that good in their area?
It is your face - I would recommend saving up to pay for a flight & stay before hoping to find someone as good as he is to work on their face.
I had what is called "The Biltmore Lift" he makes 3 incisions and uses just a local anesthetic - One around each ear and one under the chin (at the front). He pulls skin & I believe muscle up to the chin line and then up around the ears. That is the only thing I had done but it does end up pulling your whole face up, great bonus.
Lastly, I am doing this because I used real self to find and read about Dr. Harley, which was a HUGE decision in my life. I was worried & scared and I am keeping up with this to help others as I was in the same situation and wanted honest input. I never met Dr. Harley before and have since sent him a couple photos to show him my progress. I get nothing at all out of it except providing my honest opinion. He is really pretty great, 2 years in and untouched photos - I could not ask for a better neck.

Response from Dr. Harley:
Thank you for taking the time to post such a kind and informative review! We enjoyed having you and your husband in Asheville for your surgery, and we are thankful you trusted us! I couldn’t be more pleased with the result, and I’m so glad you are happy as well! Thank you again!

1 year anniversary
This week marks the one year anniversary of the week I sent my pictures in to Dr. Harley. Here is my before and one year later . I tried to take the 2nd picture in the exact same place and time as last year. I added a smiling picture because I had a few people ask if it affected my smile. Nope, it just got bigger :-)

I know this is silly but my concern is that it will change the look of my facing in a normal non smiling position. Every one is always so thrilled that they forget to take a post picture where they aren't smiling and it makes me nervous that it will leave my face looking like it is in a permanent grin??? Gorgeous results, regardless, and I probably would never stop smiling either!
p.s. I sent you a private message ages ago about a hair salon rec. as I love your cut--I am also in STL (still sort of a newbie) and now I am obsessed with your dentist. Would love any referrals on those two fronts. ;)

Sorry, I thought I answered both of the questions awhile back. My dentist is Lakview Dental in Lake St. Louis and my hair person is Chelsea at Inspire Salon in Lake St. Louis. Mface just looks like my normal face when I am not smiling, minus a saggy neck. :-)

A little bit over 10 months in and still loving this neck! So far, so great! The scars are completely gone. I have all of my feeling back. Honestly I forget that I ever even had it done. Cant thank Dr. Harley enough.

My local tanning salon switched out some of there beds with red lights and I have gone about 10 times so far. I have really noticed a difference, they say it promotes collagen growth and I have to say I am a believer. Even skin tone, makeup goes on much better, pores are tighter. It took me a few weeks to notice any changes but I go about 3 times a week for 20 minutes and I am probably 3 weeks or so in.
You are really lovely and your skin loos amazing!
