3 years post surgery and I'm still happy
$9,000
I just logged on for the first time in years and I have so many emails that I never replied too so I apologize. I have this site tied to an account that is full of spam so I don't check it anymore. Here are some things I can tell you 3 years post surgery..... It was still worth it! If I could do it over again I would have trained myself NOT to sleep face down before surgery. I still can't sleep on my back. Some of the crepiness has returned on my neck but that's not the doctors fault...that's mine since sleeping on your face with your neck twisted is a big no no. Some of you are mortified by pixie ears....I typically wear my hair down so it really doesn't bother me but I have them so they might bother me eventually. The turkey waddle of loose skin bothered me more. I still haven't had my lower bleph but I know I will at some point. My upper eyelids haven't changed a bit. They look great...no hooding...I could wear eye shadow if only I knew how to put it on. If you have realistic expectations that's helpful...I never expected perfection with my neck. I just wanted a big improvement and I got it. Here are some very recent pictures so you can see the current status 3 years later. The picture with long hair was at the 2 year mark. The other pictures are all from Nov 2018 to now.

3 year update after Biltmore lift
Still so happy I had it done... I’m finally planning on getting my lower bags removed but here in Austin. My neck still looks a ton better than it did prior to surgery (38 months ago) but some of the crepey look has returned. I really think that’s because I sleep on my stomach which is horrible for our neck. My upper lids still look perfect. This picture was taken yesterday.

Thanks for the follow up on your results. I am looking for recommendations for a Dr. that does neck lifts in Austin, TX if you have anyone you know of. Thanks, Lynn

8 months post the magician... DR Harley
My daughter starts kindergarten on the 22nd. I no longer worry about looking like a grandma on her first day. There are already enough questions when people see her and I together. Hahaha. (Adoption rocks but leads to people wanting in your business which doesn't bother me!) I feel so much better about myself and it's nice to notice a couple of lingering looks or heads turning in my direction again. I'm super up front about my surgery especially when people make me feel unintentionally guilty because I look younger than 43. I don't want someone feeling bad if that makes sense so I fess up a lot. I'm not going to lie about it. Last night we were trying to see if my almost 15 year old niece was taller than me or not. I wasn't wearing makeup and looked like death but although she is now taller I had to share my neck with y'all . I love it! A year ago I would have died seeing my profile because of the crepey skin. I'm far from perfect but it's nice to feel happy in my own skin. So glad I did my upper bleph. I'll post when I finally do my lower. I'm going to do it this year or next most likely but it just doesn't bother me as much now that my 2 other major issues are resolved. Hugs to you all!

Gorgeous profile, beautiful lady! Thank you for the update! I agree with you, 100%, in the sense that, while I know I'm far from perfect, I feel good in my own skin again. Before my Biltmore lift and upper bleph, I felt totally overwhelmed by what was happening to my face and neck...I felt like everything was just sliding out of control. Now that I've had my procedures and addressed my major issues, I feel like I can breathe again, like I can take stock and figure out what else needs to be addressed and when or even IF it really needs to be addressed at all. I feel like Dr Harley put me back in charge of the way I look and feel about myself. It's been a very empowering experience for me. I need to thank you, again, for your review, as it was one of the things I clung to for hope as my own surgery was approaching earlier this year. It's awesome to hear that you and your beautiful family are doing well!

Beautiful profile! You look like cousins.

Do you mean to tell me that's not the same person !?!? I honestly thought that it was a mirror thing until I seen someone post that you two look like cousins..more like twins!! So beautiful!

When I looked at it I thought it was a mirror image of you too! Excellent work, you look beautiful.
