Hi all!
Just a few more pics at day 25.
Still resolving a small bump under left chin area and a ridge along right jaw. Being assured it will take time to completely heal. I had a lot of fat and loose skin to deal woth, sp slower toheal - plus at age 67 things do heal more slowly! Patience is not one of my virtues- lol - but very pleased so far.

You have an amazing dr!

You look so refreshed and lovely, and it takes time, the experts say, up to a year to really appreciate the results and every day you will notice a great improvement.

Thanks so much! Appreciate the encouragement
February 27, 2016
Holy cow, 67?! ! You look fantastic, so happy for you!

Ad, you are gorgeous I'm amazed but scared of the peel.
March 3, 2016
Peels have to be done with care, but mine was, and looks great. Very pleased. Looks scary but for me was not painful - time consuming to fully peel but worth it!

yes you look great!! I did a peel at home...got strong stuff and went slow but i got tired of all the slow results...so i went way strong!!! wow it started burning so i washed it off so quickly! Face i could cover with makeup but the neck looked like twenty years older neck for about 5 days (scarf) and then after seven so smooth!!!

How's the ridge? I'm a slow healer too but you look so good for being a slow healer too

Ridge getting better but slight hematoma (bump) under chin where extra incision taken to remove fat - resolving.

Beautiful results!
February 15, 2016
Thanks! Quite pleased and know it will continue to improve! Such freedom to have first day with no chin strap ( only at night now)!
Went for a nice walk and out in public first time in 2 wks! Back among the living! Glad you also are seeing great results! I had an issue for a few days with some yucky oozing after stitches out. Called Dr Kass yesterday and he phoned in a script for antibiotics- seems better today. Keep In touch!
Prayers continue!

I also felt the cabin fever setting in, so, chin strap, baseball cap and sunglasses I strolled into Lowes and the poor young man at the register turned to look at me and he looked horrified! Now that I think about it, he must of thought it was going to be a robbery, lol. My chin strap covers my face like a ski mask!! Priceless, I wish I had a camera.

Thank you for taking us with you on your journey. You look gorgeous and it will get even better. Can't wait till I make up my mind and get this done. When I see these kind of results it makes me wish I had already had the surgery. Keep posting ...

wow thanks i wanna do this next and i am just starting my research....i have to find out all the mini data because i am not ready for the whole thing...you look great....i have my eyelift review on here alreadyl
February 16, 2016
Thanks! Still waiting for all swelling and bruising to abate.
Feel free to ask me any questions. I do think that different docs have different ideas about what constitutes a mini lift. My doc does pretty much a solid lower face lift and tightens the neck and jaw, including muscles and not just skin.
Where do you live? Important to do your research!

florida.......cool lower is what i always pull up on but i do not think i started out as bad as some who have big results...i just want a little but am having success with at home peels at the moment
February 17, 2016
I am so wanting to do this but at the minute still too frightened to go ahead. Reading results like yours really helps. You look great. Please keep posting
February 17, 2016
It's a little scary-particularly during contemplation phase! I was all over the place but am glad I went ahead with it.
It's a process for sure. I'm feeling positive and would be happy to answer any questions!

2 weeks post

Today is 2 weeks post and I'm so pleased. Still some jaw and chin swelling and bruising, but a huge difference in reduction of jowls, neck and facial wrinkles. Today is the first day I'm free of the chin "bra" and it feels free to be liberated! Now I just need to wear it only at night for 2 more weeks.
I've had a pretty good recovery, I feel. I did get some yellow discharge behind ears after stitches were removed. I called Dr Kass yesterday, and though it was Sunday, he called right back and decided to call in a script just in case. It seems better today. Gonna try to attach a few befores and afters.

Congratulations on your liberation! I am 4 days behind you. Saw Dr. Kass today and he removed staples and sutures. I am over the moon with my results so far!
