For years I did not like what I saw in the mirror. I always said when it was time, I'd get a facelift and the time was now! I chose Dr. Mao thru Reliant Medical Group and I could not be more pleased. Aside from being an extremely skilled surgeon, he was patient, kind and honest. He was always available thru my post op & recovery time and communicated with me via texts. I was able to send him daily pictures and he was able to answer my endless questions. I couldn't have asked for a better physician!

Welcome to the community and thanks so much for offering your opinion of your doctor.

It would be great if you could give us a little more detail about your experience, like why you had the surgery, your tips for getting good results, pros/cons, and info on the recovery process.

Our community members especially love seeing photos from before, during, and after — a realistic look at what they can expect. Photos grab the attention of the community and encourage more support for you.

As a community manager, I get requests all the time from other members who want me to to keep encouraging people to share their experiences, which are so helpful for others considering these procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.

Good morning - first: you look absolutely amazing....radiant, actually! You must be soooo pleased. Given the major undertaking any kind of surgery poses, I want to make sure I make the most informed & best choice. It can be mind-boggling. I have become almost dependent upon the reviews & detailed information that the RealSelf users so willingly provide (thank goodness!). And you look utterly awesome. May I ask: did you have only a face & neck lift? Did you also happen to have any kind of laser resurfacing? (I am looking to have that done first, and then onto the major stuff - ). Your skin is so smooth and dewy. Like a teenager! And how did your recovery go? I am in NY and willing to travel, for the right surgeon...everything I've read about Dr. Mao is quite positive. Many thanks for any additional info.......and congratulations! Kathi

Wow, your skin just glows. Did you have a peel, too?

Either way, you have one of those faces that always looks friendly and likeable. That's what I'm hoping to get from plastic surgery, but you even had it in the before picture
