@Transformation2021 Did she really pay this much for a facelift and still have deep nasolabial folds? Dr Dongman Park is only $15k and does deep planes that also remove the nasolabial folds.

How do you know she had a facelift, let alone by the Dr you mentioned?? She lost a large amount of weight reportedly by gastric bypass. She's a pretty young lady regardless. She's admitted to having fillers but to my knowledge she hasn't admitted to a facelift please correct me if I'm wrong.
I am 2 months post and loving my facelift face. My face looks good with and without makeup, with and without false eyelashes and with and without coloured contact lenses. I love the freedom it gives me now that my face is fixed. Fingers crossed I do not need to revisit my face until my 60s. Make sure you pick a facelift surgeon who removes nasolabial folds as well as the marionette lines and jowls.
Aw, looks like I can't view the video! I was looking to seeing a video of you dear
It’s 71 days now post a £3495 ($5k) facelift. I worked out that this far it has cost £49/day and after 5 years will have cost £1.91 a day! Lol. Here are today’s no makeup face. I weigh 101.2 lbs which is 2.4 lbs more than I weighed on my op day so I need to lose 2 lbs. The extra 2.4 lbs have gone to my cheeks which is weighing down my face a little and creating downward mouth corner lines.
It has been 13 months since my one time great bargain £5.6k breast fat transfer and I am happy to say that I am still fitting a 32e cup bra! I weigh 2 lbs more than on my surgery day which has helped fat retention. A plastic surgeon stated that swelling causes fat cells to hypertrophy! This suggests wearing a compression garment prevents fat cells from thriving! Thank goodness I did not wear a sports bra or any compression garment postop. I always said it was 50% the surgeon’s technique and 50% the patient’s postop regime. Four months of a high protein and fat diet paid off and maintaining my weight 2-3 lbs above my surgery day weight too. Now I have learned allowing surgical swelling to occur without compression, also helps transplanted fat cells thrive and grow! To be honest, an e cup is too big for my petite frame and I looked best as a C cup but it is a small price to pay to have symmetrical breasts. I could try losing weight to reduce the cup size. I wonder what would happen to my lifted face if I did that? It is really hard to get the balance right. The saying that you have to choose between a great face or a great body rings true!
2.4 is 1kg....(sorry aussie i think in kg not lbs
). Its very unlikely 1 kg will make much visible difference to the face. What I can tell from the photos tho is that there is unevenness, one side has dropped more versus the other. Even if you do gain weight, an asymmetrical distribution of the weight does not occur to this degree. From what I can tell I think its either one of the two possiblities:1) one side was tightened more than the other. This can happen actually because when the surgeon performs the procedure its essentially a guesstimate of how much tighening he should do on each side in an attempt to predict what the post recovery results will be after deliberately overpulling. Fair early to tweak too.
2) the internal bunching on one side has dissolved more quickly than the other. I can actually see more bunching on the side which is tighter whilst the side where it has dropped more seems to have dissolved already. If this is the cause then I dont think theres anything to worry about and it will both be evened out with time

The Harley Street surgeon who charged £14K cancelled my operation so I ended up finding a better surgeon in York who only charged me £3,495 or $5k. I am so pleased I ended up paying less and getting a brilliant result with no staples!

Thank you for taking the time to give a detailed analysis of my FL results. I agree with you. My right side is pulled tighter and it is raising my lip higher on that side. It is difficult to get it exactly even as each side was filled with 40 ccs of anaesthetic fluid so there would have been distortion to work with too. You have a good eye to spot the asymmetry. It does not bother me as it is slight and I can work with it with makeup and lipstick. Probably why the surgeon did not use the b&a frontal full face photos I sent him to add to his Instagram. Lol. Oh well, let’s hope as you say it is internal bunching on the right side that is yet to dissolve. Here is a full frontal face selfie. Good spot!
Here is a timeline of May, June and September 2021. Dyeing my hair back to blonde between May and June helped lift my face and then the facelift in July completed the rejuvenation. I think my uneven lips are either from the rib rhino or one of the 2 lip lifts as it is there before the facelift.

Here are more amazing b&a transformation photos. My before is age 27 and I hated my side profile, flat nose and long mandible and the after is age 55. I used to make sure no date saw me from the side so I sat across the table. When a friend said I can recognise you anywhere from your jaw, I was mortified. No I did not get double jaw surgery as suggested by ID hospital in my late 40s by email consult, just a bit of chin bone shaving along with rib rhino by a board certified plastic surgeon in London, Mr Lucian Ion. He has stopped doing chin shavings as far as I know after someone asked. Now my side profile is my best feature!
