Today is Just 4 Weeks After my Facelift. I Am Still Healing but WOW. What a Transformation!
I am turning 68 years old this week and was finally beginning to look my age. I felt like I didn't recognize myself when I would glance in the mirror.
I was a far cry from the fashion model I had been in my twenties.
In my retirement, I have been performing on stage as a singer/songwriter with my husband. I have had to retouch all of my photos to take out the bags and lines of any promo shots.
And, now I don't have to anymore.
I had been considering a facelift for the past couple of years and did my research on the doctors in my area, talking to as many people as possible and researching on the internet.
My final decision came when my grown children kept asking me why I was angry all the time.
And I wasn't.
But my face had fallen enough to make the corners of my mouth turn down into a frown unless I was smiling. I also had eyelids that were falling over my lashes and bags under my eyes.
So I did this for me.
I wanted to look like the person who I felt I was about 15 years ago.
I aimed to look like a fresher happier me.
So after interviewing several plastic surgeons and talking to women who had facelifts, I decided on Dr. Hector G. Miramontes.
And I am so glad I did.
I had the complete 'SMAS, deep plane facelift,' including my neck and eyes done at Innovare, the hospital exclusively for plastic surgery. Dr. Miramontes has his patients stay there for at least 2 nights, where his trained nursing staff took care of me.
I felt no pain in my recovery, but it is an ordeal, and healing takes a while. I still have a little bruising and swelling, but with make-up and wearing my hair to conceal the bruises a few around my ear area, I have to say:
I look fabulous.
My husband loves my new look, and even my kids are telling me how good I look.
I am so glad that I did it.
And I highly recommend Dr. Miramontes to everyone who is considering the procedure.
