How to go from 50+ to looking 20+ with plastic surgery rejuvenation.

[MissOrange]

@SheOnlyLooks25 thank you for the info on hair extensions. Tmi on the 6 grey hairs but I can relate as I found 1 grey eyelash and freaked out and plucked it out. I shouldn't as in a decade I will end up with no eyelashes! Must relax and just apply mascara.

Btw have you heard of Plantur 39 caffeinated shampoo? Seems to get good amazon reviews for hair growth in us postmenop ladies? I just bought keune for dry damaged bleached hair but now thinking I need to also try plantur 39?

Today's post is on good antiaging results. Here is Christie Brinkley who is now in her 60s. I still think she had too much cheek filler which has weighted her cheeks and created deep nasolabial folds but still a very good result and perhaps needs upper lid fg as her eyes are deeply set. The maxilla bone recedes with age so doesn't quite match her younger picture but her philtrum length is a match.

The problem with trying to look younger is the fear of being labelled mutton dressed as lamb. I dread this. And it is a fine line between getting antiaging right where it is convincing and people accept you as looking young or getting it a bit off and the public can spot you don't quite have it right and are actually older. If you want to look 20-30 years younger you have to get your hair and fashion to match a younger face too or you give the game away or as my eldest daughter says stop dressing like a grannie to me. Uhoh.

This facelift is amazing. With facial contouring, the doctor seems to have altered her bone structure. She had the works done of course. SMAS, neck lift, brow lift. Rhinoplasty. FG to her lips and cheeks.

Oops - sorry girls, my typing is so bad with my bad eyesight. WHAT I MEANT TO SAY was "without" facial contouring, the doctor seems to have altered her bone structure...

MissOrange,
I realize you are very slim, but if I remember correctly you had a liposuction sometime in your life. Do you have any recommendation on clinic/doctors?

Hi @GPR, I had regular lipo and then vaser lipo to my abdomen and inner thighs over a decade ago with Dr Maurizio Viel of Harley Street. He is good. In Korea it looks like Ruby clinic and Fresh clinic may be good for lipo. I met a girl in korea who went on to get lipo at Ruby for a good price and result. Fresh Instagram videos are impressive for lipo.

Comments are divided. She had long lasting fillers done to her jawline. Many are saying she was prettier before.

From that view I don't have a strong opinion on what looks better, however from the front it might make her look more square jawish rather than oval/heart shape.

For someone with jowls, I wonder if adding all that volume to the jawline would help since the skin would be pulled back somewhat.

I think she looks prettier after and strangely thinner?? She doesn't seem to have chin fat anymore.

Today's post is a comparison and analysis into whether we actually need full face fat graft or should we be focussing on finding a healthy weight that fills out our faces naturally? Go have a look at the befores of girls who get full face fg and invariably they are too skinny to begin with, ie they lost too much volume from their faces. Here is a collage of me in July 2016 2 months after my upper lid fg with revision des with skin excision and removal and ptosis correction and days after vermillion lip lift when I was denied a full face fg at mvp as I was told I did not need it (and I totally agree I should have listened instead of go to DAPRS 2 days after this collage and get my first of 4 full face fat grafts). The top right is earlier this month, ie 8 months post my 4th full face fg. As you can see no real difference and in all 4 photos I am at a healthy 99 lbs and not 94 lbs which was my weight when my face looked old and bony which I relied on to convince myself I needed full face fg or 96 lbs the day I had my 4th full face fg for a flat face. So in hindsight, ladies find your optimum weight and only get fat graft for hollowed lids if they remain hollow at your optimum weight (anywhere in the normal weight bmi range). Do not lose a lot of weight, then say oh I look old and saggy and then start a costly impulsive ps journey when all you did was lose too much weight ie volume from your face like I did. Sigh. Remember fat graft is good for temples and upper eyelid hollows. Otherwise work out your bmi and gain a few healthy lbs in weight to add youthful volume to your face.

Today I get more toner in my hair to go blonder. Living in the UK I find it better to be blonde and more Caucasian looking for better treatment in public and if I lived in Korea, I would want to look more Korean to fit into their society. The good news is that with hair and makeup I can look either Korean or Caucasian as the need arises and no more plastic surgery for me!

Today's post shows how natural weight gain adds fat to your face better than fg. With full face fg the skin is loosened to accommodate the canula and I call it the thigh fat graft has a mind of its own. When it is hot out and I am dehydrated, the fg cells shrink causing the lower face to deflate big time (left top photo taken a couple of months ago- 4 fgs later). When I eat a meal with msg or fat the fg swells up giving me balloon face (also a couple of months ago but after a meal with msg and then a scone with clotted cream). And only with hard work do I look normal, ie the right balance of water intake and diet, and right angles and lighting for selfies.

The second photo in the navy jumper shows me at 94 lbs with an old and bony face Feb 2016 that prompted me to seek ps 2.5 years ago and then 4 months later looking great in a white jacket with natural weight gain of 5 lbs June 2016 before I embarked on my full face fg journey a month later in July 2016 after these 2 natural weight gain June photos in profile and front view. As you can see I never needed full face fg and Ellen at mvp was right to have refused this procedure back in 2016. Sadly we sometimes forget to listen when friends try to give us advice and now I am forever monitoring and managing this thigh fg in my face as well as saggy skin in my lower face and more so in my left inner thigh than right as it had an extra lipo from fg taken from just one thigh by DA.

The lesson of the day is determine whether your face is bony due to weight loss and not zygoma protrusion and instead of fg try to gain 5 lbs and see if your face looks fine. If you are of normal weight and still think you need fg then try dermal fillers first.

It is too late for me as my lower face has been permanently stretched by fg x 4 and yet each ps refuses me smas FL and one suggested threadlift but this is £1400 for 6 months benefit. It is illogical to me as to why young girls of 30 or ladies my age can get smas yet I am denied? Is smas like fg causing more sagging from skin separation and pulling? But the skin gets excised and muscles tightened?

The 3 pictures in the previous Friday's post also show my face before my full face fg journey and taken 2 days before daprs proceeded to inject fg all over my beautiful natural fat face. It shows that some clinics will still proceed and change a beautiful face just for money. .

We rarely read of fg follow up 2+ years later so my journey shows you how fg forces you to keep flying back for top ups until you are strong enough to live with a deflated face long enough to be allowed to get smas.

So whether you have spent a lot on just one face fg that disappears in 1-3 months and leaves you with a saggy or deflated face or spent +++ on 4 full face fgs, my advice is don't get it done anywhere but your temples and upper lids and try natural weight gain to fill out your face.

@MissOrange, I think your face looks most youthful in the top right photo (the one where your clothes are not visible). Was this before or after fg?

I have always thought that if we inject any fillers or fat grafts or anything to plump up our face, we will be creating a space between our skin and natural fats and our face will start to sag when the fillers or fat grafts disappeared because our natural fats loses its adhesion to either the skin or skull. Hence, until now, I have not done any of those stuff yet. When I went to do Ultherapy, the doctor has suggested that I could have some fillers in the future when I start to have nasolabial folds but I think I will reject that idea. It seems that once we start to age, our face starts to sag and maybe it might sag at a faster pace if we had any interventions done. Hmm...

Ah @heartbeep that is my balloon face after 4 fgs and a korean lunch with msg. If you like that look then fg can create it and keep eating salty foods. The downside is the deflation that occurs after the food has absorbed and you forget to drink water. For me, I prefer a flatter smaller face like hys.

You're absolutely right @Fortunecat. Anything injected to expand the facial skin stretches it too! I suppose if it is a wee filler amount, then the skin elasticity can shrink back but the volumes used for fg can be substantial like 50 ccs! And there is the weight of the fg to take into account as it weighs down the cheeks. I think my cheeks are sitting lower than before any fg.
