Peggy’s Blog: Scalpel Please!
These are my “Before” photos. On the day of my surgery, I was excited and ready to have my facelift. I wasn’t nervous or scared. I felt confidence in Dr. Bashioum and my decision to go forward. I really don’t remember a lot about the day of surgery, but my granddaughter told me that after the surgery, I marched into her house like nothing had ever happened. Dr. Bashioum requires someone to be with facelift patients during the night following their surgery. I didn’t have much pain, which was a surprise. The discomfort from the surgery was more like a muscle pain and after the first day, I only took a few Tylenol. I followed the doctor’s orders and referred back to my post-operative instructions to make sure I was doing exactly as I was told. My husband saw to it that I was the perfect patient, as far as getting a lot of rest and eating healthy. It was also a comfort to know that I could call the doctors office 24/7 whenever I felt the need to be reassured about the progress I was making.
