WORTH IT
Facial Filler for cheek volume; Dysport for nasty 11 lines, eyes and forehead wrinkles. Subtle, natural looking lip filler. Thank you Dr. Larry Lickstein for helping me look like a better version of myself for 67 yrs old.

Wow what a beautiful result and perfect belly button!! I have wanted a tummy tuck for several years now but am afraid of the pain and healing issues as I am 66. I was wondering if you had any issues with healing and how long it took for the pain to be manageable. Also did it take long for you to stand up straight. I am 5' 6" 120 pounds and have been the same weight all my life. After 3 cesareans I have a small pouch that I believe are from stretched muscles and no matter how much I exercise it just is not tight like before children. I don't need liposuction just skin and muscle tightening so I am hoping no lipo means less pain. Sorry for all the questions but I am seriously wanting to just finally do it this fall.

Thank you! The pain wasn't bad and I only used the prescription pain killer for one day after surgery then switched to Tylenol. After couple days it wasn't even pain just a lot of soreness getting in and out of bed kind of thing. I stayed home from work two and a half weeks to recover. I did not find the liposuction to be an issue with actual pain. The only thing I hated were the 2 drains I had attached to remove fluid for about 9 days. More annoying to empty them than having them on. I had one tiny section of scar line wound in front that took bit longer to heal than the rest but my Doctor guided me on what to do to treat it successfully. Getting a lot of protein is very important to good healing. It took me only four days to be fully standing but I'm a very active person. I had a lot of excess skin but not so much fat. My results really are amazing as I have a flat, tight stomach and abdominal muscles feel great. I I wear compression garments as instructed to o or swelling. I'm almost into fifth month post op and no swelling or most part. At our age, I believe choice of highly competent and skilled surgeon is paramount. If you are healthy 66 is not too late for cosmetic surgery. Best of luck to you if you elect have it!

Thank you so much for your response! It has really given me more confidence. Like you I am also very active so hopefully I will have no problem bouncing back. Good luck on your upcoming marriage.

Liquid Facial and lotion Rejuvenation

My husband and I are so pleased what Dr. Larry Lickstein was able to achieve for me with age appropriate facial filler for added cheek volume, Botox for 11’s. Forehead and eye wrinkles and I’m thrilled with my lips which look natural for me, just fuller &. more definition. I look like a well rested best version of ME! My engagement photos were so much nicer with a bit of help at 67!!

I wish I had my abdominoplasty with liposuction years ago but I’m amazed at what he achieved for this old broad at 67 yrs old!
