Peggy’s Blog: Wanting a Facelift
June 23rd, 2010
Hi, my name is Peggy. Why did I choose cosmetic surgery? I have been contemplating having a facelift for the past 3 years. I was a sun worshipper since I was 16, had my own personnel tanning bed in my home for 15 years, I was a heavy smoker and a yo-yo dieter. All of which contributed to me developing severe skin damage. I reached a point where I didn’t even want anyone to take my picture, unless it was with my camera where I could Photoshop it or a professional photo where they could edit the picture. I quit smoking in 2001, sold my tanning bed in 2003 and joined weight watchers in 2006. I have lost 43 pounds and have kept it off. I learned that keeping your weight off is basically living a healthy lifestyle, which includes exercise, no dieting is really required. So now, at 65 years old and a healthy weight of 115 pounds, I am ready to consider a facelift and look in the mirror with confidence.
