Neck and Lower Face Lift – Asheville, NC

WORTH IT$6,400
Hello all!
I've been meaning to update for ages, but oy what a year I've had.
As some of you recall, I took care of my mother, who has dementia, since my father passed away in 2009. The day after the election last year, she accidentally set our house on fire. People and pets all escaped unscathed, but the house my parents bought new in 1965 was destroyed. Momma is in a beautiful (and SAFE!) new home and I was rushed into a small apartment within 3 days of the fire, as I was essentially without a home. It's been... tough. 13 months later and still no insurance settlement, which seems to have only really impacted me and my finances! But what can you do but muster on? All of the usual road bumps have popped up along the way, in addition to dealing with the house and rebuilding a life where I only have myself to take care of. I've adjusted, mostly. I had missed my solitary times. I have gotten as fat as a piggie in the last 2 years! Eh, self-comfort.
Slowly things are improving and I still have my lovely neck :) The results are still good, despite some loosening, most noticeably in my jowls. The skin under my chin has also loosened but NOTHING like it was. I can still take selfies from any angle! Ha!
I included some pictures from my summer in Italy. I had JUST paid off the entire trip when the fire happened and looking forward to that trip got me through some tough times. IT WAS PERFECT, EVERY SINGLE MOMENT. I haven't had a trip yet that could come close.

Hola from Spain!
Two and a half years out, and I'm still happy with my results.
I visited the gang at Dr H's office for a Botox touch up before I went to Spain. It was wonderful to see him and his staff again, and they were all as warm and welcoming as always. Very pleased with my Botox and not sure why I haven't been coming to Dr H for my Botox since the surgery!
I hope everyone is doing well and having as positive an experience as I did. Adios!

I am curious as to what made you decide to do a lower face lift along with the neck lift though. Would it have been less recovery and an easier process to do only your neck? I only ask because I'm in initial research stage and would love your insight. Thanks!
