Hi @Moon88, wow TLPS closed down? Wow! The big clinics for facial contouring are View, EU dental and smaller clinics Girin and Namu. But with facial contouring one definitely needs a facelift. Here is Namu’s b&a for facial contouring. Dr Kirk refused me zygoma reduction as he said I only needed a facelift. I liked his honesty. Girin has really impressive results too on Instagram.

@JLeeLee91 thanks. I am 55.5 years old now. I may well have been almost 50 at the start of this long thread! Glad my tips are useful.Wow, you look amazing. I can't believe you are almost 51 Miss Orange.
Thank you for sharing your tips.
I bet you also have a very good skincare routine. Any tips on that are most welcome.
Hi @HopefulGB, wow Mascaro is too popular! Can you not ask to be added to the cancellation list? Waiting until Nov 2022 for a consult and then June 2023 for the op is way too long! Sadly Miss Mills does not do private work anymore. Shame as no other surgeon would dare to trim 9 mms like she did for me which then allowed the upper lip to be everted and give me a full upper lip too. Lip lift surgeons tend to be too conservative and then one is left with thin lips and only a few mms trimmed off a sagging philtrum. There is only Mascaro in Florida and Osuch in Poland that I am aware of.
Hi @NewMe83, yes the surgeon is Dr In-Soo Kirk. Namu is his clinic. He has a separate male doctor anaesthetist and a female dermatologist who does the Botox and fillers. I was very impressed with this clinic. I hesitated as I was not prepared at that time to spend 9 million won and I was alone in Korea and worried how I could cope postop on my own. In hindsight aftercare is straight forward for a smas facelift. I would absolutely recommend Dr Kirk for smas facelift in Korea. Wow his website results are impressive! I just looked them up. Maybe I shall fly to Namu when I am in my 60s? Dr Kirk speaks fluent English as he spent part of his training at Johns Hopkins in the U.S.
I think what sold me on Dr Rhodes was the price, the huge improvement in the b&a facelifts he did and the fact I could recuperate at home in the U.K. and not spend over a week alone in Korea waiting to have the stitches out.
Here is Namu’s website. http://en.namups.com/document/SMAS-Face-Lift

Love this nasolabial chart. It is so true. The depth of your nasolabial folds suggests what age the public may view you as. Either radiesse dermal fillers or a good facelift can get rid of your nasolabial folds. I erased my nasolabial folds with radiesse in my 40s and a good facelift at age 55.
OMG the Merz scale of plastic surgery has assessed all the aspects of ageing from forehead lines, thickness of upper lip to ageing hands! Love this pictorial guide! https://plasticsurgerykey.com/standard-evaluation-of-the-patient-the-merz-scale/
On day 113 yesterday my weight was 99.8 lbs, just a lb more than on my surgery date when it was 98.8 lbs. I noticed I had gained weight post my facelift up to 101.4 lbs, almost 3 lbs more than on the day of my surgery, so my golden ratio score could not go into the perfect category until I tried to get my weight closer to the surgery day weight. I think it is imperative one try to maintain the same weight as when you had your facelift as that is the precise position your surgeon created for you at that weight on the day and gaining or losing weight may affect your face results! And wow! My score has now jumped to the perfect category! I am inching closer to a young Angelina Jolie’s perfect golden ratio face.

@MissOrange You are still looking good despite the weight gain!!! Don't stress over it!
How's your arms after liposuction?
I am thinking of getting my arms lipo if I am going to Korea!
Hi @Fortunecat, my upper arms are still skinny! Yay! Thank goodness as I truly want to stop anymore plastic surgeries. I had one op this year, ie the facelift and last year had 4 surgeries!!!
Million thanks for your reply Miss Orange, I really trust and value your expetise!
Isn't this the most amazing lip lift EVER. Madonna at 63 for W Magazine. A lot of injectors now know how to inject Russian Lips so she's had that done too.
@HopefulGB
Luckily you live in the US and Mascaro is not the only game in town. He's good but there are others just at good.
