I've had 3 consults with Dr. Bonaldi and each time he has answered all my questions and made me feel confident. I'm sure I'll come up with more! Will update after surgery in November!

You really did it right! Your results are amazing and I'm so glad you shared your journey with us. I'm thinking about doing some of that, but can't afford it all at once, so you've really inspired me. Thank you!
I wanted to have it all done at once to avoid separate recoveries. I had general anesthesia for the first full face menu surgery but just local injections for the two brow lift revisions. After six months I'm done.
That's the way I had my brow lift, with local injections and in her office. Easy peasy
The next time I have anything done, I'm hoping for in office procedures. General anesthesia has become my enemy they last two times. I've had lots of orthopedic surgeries and it wasn't until the last shoulder surgery and then the PS that I've decided I don't want to ever do that again. I need knee and eye surgery and they said they can do "twilight " like when they do a colonoscopy. Fingers crossed.
I have a problem waking up when I'm put under. And that's serious, obviously. Sooooooo local injections is where it's at.
You look great mickie! So youthful me natural.
Thanks! Hope you're doing well!
Hah I sent accidentally. Anyway, you look wonderful and should be so happy. Well done!
You look fantastic. Great surgeon. But I can't tell why the eyebrow revisions were needed. I cannot detect the differences.

Got stitches out from second Brow Lift revision today. No makeup "Resting [RS bleep] Face". So glad he threw in the nose tweak for no charge!

Did you have upper eye lift in any of your recent surgeries?
If you mean bleph...no. On 11/2/2016 I had endoscopic brow, face, neck lifts, fat transfer to cheeks, marionette and nasolabial lines, 11's and horizontal lines between my eyebrows, laser around mouth and tweek to my crooked nose tip. At about 5 months I had first brow lift revision as well as more fat transfer around mouth and in 11's between my eyebrows. At 5 months I had Volbella in the "smokers" creases around my lips and remaining creases around my mouth as well as Botox between and along my eyebrows which keeps me from crunching my face when concentrating. At 6 months (1 week ago) I had another brow lift revision. I'm done except for Botox maintenance in eyebrows every 3-4 months and Volbella in lips once a year!
Hi!!!!!!! I just took note of your last procedure. You look Amazing!!! Omg. I'm dead serious....20 years younger than your before pix. I'm in awe. I keep staring at the profile pictures. The brow lift was a finishing touch. I had that done last year. I'm thrilled with it. Anyways, you are gorgeous. And thank you for posting on my profile. There's some "negative nellies " out there. :-(. You rule!
I had Original Brow Lift 11/2/16, first revision Brow Lift 3/23/17, second revision Brow Lift 5/4/17 and I still feel like they are sagging at the outer corners when Resting [RS bleep] Face. I'm done with it for now. The neck is a little saggy but I'm on the verge of 66 so I'll take it. Doing some laser facial hair removal now and will continue with Botox every 3-4 months for Brow maintenance and Volbella in lips once a year. In the long run, I'm happy I don't look like I did the morning of 11/2/16!!! Maybe I'll again consider the knife for my 70th birthday! Sorry about the negativity. You look Maaaaahvelous!
You made me laugh. I am the same way. Always thinking "it" could be better??!! Oh well..I'm waiting for a special bday to do a lower fl.

Latest Brow Lift revision 5/4/17

Hoping the improvement isn't just swelling because it's perfect right now. This is the second in office revision. Fingers crossed it's what I had wanted in the beginning. Dr. is conservative in his approach and didn't want me to look too pulled so I appreciate his willingness to do the two revisions at no cost. Also want to mention that I didn't take Hydrocodone for pain this time...just Extra Strength Tylenol. The first 8 hours were painful but after that I was fine. Better than passing out and punching a hole in the Sheetrock like last time! Fingers crossed!
