The Right Surgeon Made This Absolutely the Right Thing to Do! -Royal Tunbridge Wells, GB

I am 58. For the last few years I have felt fit and healthy but every time I looked into the mirror the heavy turkey-wattle neck that framed my face was so depressing! Where had I gone! I researched on the Internet and soon decided that the pile-em-high and sell-em-cheap approach was definitely not for me. I only have one face and needed to be absolutely certain that the person I allowed to touch it was not going to make a mess. Having seen some very helpful reviews on Mr Pacifico I attended one of his open information evenings (free of charge) where I had the opportunity to chat to him about my problems and desire to get back the face I used to have - not better - no miracles required - just the face I used to have without the baggy bits. He recommended a neck and lower face lift. He gave me lots of information to take away and read. Several months later - and another couple of consultations I went in for surgery. I felt completely safe and he ensured that I was informed of everything that would happen - there were no surprises. I was operated on in the afternoon. In the morning when I saw the initial results I could have cried with joy. There I was again! Me! I stayed in hospital two nights and went out in makeup with my hair washed feeling on top of the world. Within a week I was back at work. I am so thrilled with the results I wish I had done this a couple of years ago. Friends who have known me for ages comment on how well I look - but put it down to a new hairstyle - it is so natural nobody would think it was surgery!
I have a much more positive outlook on life - and for the price of one posh holiday I have found a completely new lease of life.
There were no surprises - in fact I was expecting pain but to be perfectly honest - apart from a little discomfort that first night in hospital there has been no pain at all. I would strongly recommend that anyone thinking of having cosmetic surgery should go and have a chat with Mr Pacifico. He did not promise miracles -but everything he promised he delivered!

It is now five weeks today since I took the plunge...
Age? You are literally as old as you look - and without any major changes it is surprising how much younger I look and feel with just the removal of that neck wattle!!!
If you are considering this - I hope my experience helps!

I am nearly 2 months down the line since surgery...
I only wish I had started to look at ways of improving my life earlier! Still - better late than never!
I have my final review with Mr Pacifico on 12th April and will write a final post and put up another photo at that point.
Thanks for the lovely comments!
Thank you immensely for sharing your experience on RealSelf. You look beautiful!
