I've noticed that since turning 60 yrs old, I have experienced drooping in my forehead and brows. The result of this is giving me a tired look. Dr. Sweis recommend a temporal brow lift. I am sure that with procedure I will restore a more youthful look, without looking overdone. She is a very honest person, and doesn't try to sell you on any of her procedures.

Hi. Thank you for such a nice compliment. I'm not that young!

September 16, 2016

Well u look great! Do u do fillers? Lasers? Please do tell!

September 16, 2016

I use fillers and Botox. Fillers in my cheekbones, and Botox in my forehead. Botox is every 3 months. Fillers are typically every year.

September 18, 2016

Wow that's it???? I thought u had a lower face lift, your jaw area is so tight! Do u do voluma in the cheeks?

September 19, 2016

I am going to my plastic surgeon next week for my yearly syringe of Juvederm on my cheeks. I will post pix after my visit.

November 16, 2016

I thought same :) - 48 y old . Liked ,most of your photos , big BRAVO for you lady !

November 8, 2016

WOW! You look fabulous!

November 13, 2016

Hi how did the brow lift go. Ate you happy with the results. I never knew BOTIX helped with the vertical lines above lips. Although later you said it didnt. What do you have now? You look great BTW xx

November 13, 2016

There is a new filler out for lip vertical lines. I've got to do my research for this product and find out who does this injectable! Xoxo

November 13, 2016

BTW my temporal brow lift was quite successful. It helped to restore my drooping eyebrows and forehead. It gives you a fresher look without looking pulled. ❤️

November 13, 2016

Thanks for the info. I will have a lookout for the products you mentioned. Let me know if you find out the name for the lip line filler? Glad you are pleased with the temporal brow lift too. ❤

November 13, 2016

November 13, 2016

November 13, 2016

I have not used anything as yet. Just the lower face lift 'Concept' and neck lift. No fillers/botox in the past...

November 14, 2016

Hi! Sorry...didn't see your message earlier. I have not tried Volbella yet. It was just released in offices in the last month or so. I am going to ask about it in the next few weeks.

November 17, 2016

Hi that's fine. Please don't worry. Thank you for the reply. Look forward to hearing all about it when you know.

November 17, 2016

December 21, 2016

Great can't wait to see your results ⚘

Hello you look great, I am happy for you, can you tell me if hair grew back in the area of the incision? you mentioned that you lost some hair there, did it grow back? My hair is thinning and I am afraid loosing more. I really need this surgery (brow lift) I am conflicted.

January 30, 2017

Honestly speaking, the area that she operated on, initially was noticeably loosing hair. It really has grown back, and not obvious at all. It is soooooo worth going forth with the surgery. It makes a huge difference in your appearance. I must say it was not a tremendous amount of hair lost. Minimal. She was very careful about my concern of hair falling out.

Good luck on March 18!
what is a temporal brow lift? Does it require a general anesthesia ?
Does it also help with drooping eyelids?
Will appreciate your updates.

March 12, 2016

Dr. Sweis is actually doing it in her office and I am taking Valium to relax me. I'm not having anesthesia. This procedure raises your brows and makes the eye area look more alert and less heavy.

March 12, 2016

Thanks for your reply.
Will it only raise the outer portion of you brow, or result in an arched, higher position of the whole brow?

March 13, 2016

I am hoping it will result in lifting the entire brow. That's my assumption! It will also address the forehead wrinkles, as well as the vertical wrinkles in between the eyebrows. It creates more distance between the lash line and the eyebrow.

March 15, 2016

Your so beautiful already! I hope you get the results you hope for!

March 15, 2016

You're so kind!! I'm in the best of hands!! Dr. Sweis is the fairy g-d mother of plastic surgery. She hasn't let me down once!! :-)

January 31, 2017

You got wonderful results, in some of the photos right after your brow looked like it was being pulled up...i would of been freaking out but it came down so much looking very natural.

January 31, 2017

Thank you. My ps did many surgeries on me and I'm happy with all my end results. I guess initially it looked tight but the outcome was perfect. Look at my profile and you can see all of my surgeries.

March 5, 2017

You look amazing!!! I've decided to start saving now for a face lift or brow lift by the time I'm 55-60.

March 5, 2017

Hi. Thank you so much. You are so funny. You're a baby. You shouldn't have to even think about facelifts or brow lifts. :-). I looked up your profile, and your lips look luscious!!! I had Volbella in my lips and it was sooooooo painful. You go girl.
