Peggy’s Blog: Facelift Recovery Conclusion
June 30th, 2010
I decided to share my experience on the blog because I think anyone considering a facelift can benefit from the experience of others who have had the procedure. Maybe the most important word to remember throughout your recovery process is “patience.” A facelift is not a quick fix, but major surgery and it takes time to lose the swelling, fluid build-up and it takes awhile for everything to get back to normal. I can’t wait to really see my own final result.
I also suggest that you shouldn’t go into it thinking it will make you look like a movie star when it is done.
Having realistic expectations is a topic that Dr. Bashioum discusses during an office consultation. I feel comfortable with the way I look now. My son was actually concerned I would look like some of the older women on TV that have had excessive cosmetic surgery, but he had no need to worry because that is not what I was seeking. A quick look through Dr. Bashioum’s Before/After photos shows his more natural approach for facelifts and my result is predictably in line with them.
In closing, I am pleased with my facelift results. Life is short, so I hope to live the rest of mine looking good!
Thank you for sharing this incredible experience with me.
