My stunning 59 hear old patient me this today. Six months out from a brow, temple, face and neck lift, lower bleph, and fat transfer to her face and hands.
She lives out of town, so we did her six-month visit virtually last week. I knew she looked good, but my goodness...
It's not a clinical photo, I know. She's in her own space. Her own light. And that's exactly what makes it better.
Highlites where they should be and shadows that add dimension. Just look at that jawline.
But the part that stayed with me: on our call, we pulled up photos of her from years ago. Not to compare to her "before" — to compare to her. And she was back. Same face. Same person.
That's the goal at 6 months as we finish the "cosmetic recovery" milestone. The goal isto stop seeing the surgery — and start seeing yourself again. Her confidence in this photo says to me that she certainly is.
