Beauty treatments and cosmetic procedures

[Wren]

If money were no object, is there a beauty treatment or cosmetic procedure you would have ?

My hair is very short and I would try extensions just to lengthen it a little, but apart from that nothing else, I’d never have Botox or fillers, good luck to people that do but it’s not for me

If money were no object, I hesitantly might try that procedure to remove my little
chin/neck gobble. Probably though I would back out at the last minutes thinking;
"Nope, something will go wrong".

Getting the "marionette lines" .. can camouflage them, but, they will get deeper

I have them Pinky and use this at night, it won’t get rid of them but has definitely softened them after a few weeks

Who would have thought that ordinary Vaseline would work? I will try it!
Thank you, Wren

It’s the Aloe Vera Vaseline that was recommended to me Pinky

Ah .. did not notice that at first glance. Thanks for pointing that out!

No. Everything has its drawbacks.

My hair breaks off, and I've thought about a wig or hairpiece. I'd like a nice tidy bun, but I've only seen "messy buns." My hair is already messy, so no thanks.

I think I'd hate having the extra weight on my head anyway. So I grow my hair just long enough that I can pull it back neatly into a no-bun.

Sometimes I wear a baseball cap or winter hat. Much cheaper and better than a wig, in many ways. In my opinion.

None

No other except for the moisturizers twice a day. I'll age along with everyone else, and learn to accept whatever comes.
And believe me, it's coming!

Money no object? In that case, my own mother wouldn't recognize me when I was finished.....

My mom used lard. When we moved to the city, the grocery stores didn't carry lard, so she switched to shortening...you know, Crisco (because she read that's what Elizabeth Taylor used). Mom also dunked her face in a sink of iced water every morning. Icy face-dunk in the morning, work in the lard every night. She used the lard/shortening as a nightly hand cream, too, and then put on a pair of gloves.

It might have been that, or it might have been good genes, but my mom's face was virtually wrinkle-free til she died at 86.

I would have a procedure done so my ears wouldn’t protrude as much.
Not a big surgery…..snip some cartilage, pull some skin back……kinda like a face lift…..when done, ears don’t stick out as much.
You know what…..I’m not too old to have it done……but considered cosmetic surgery……so, it would cost a pretty penny.

Look it up. I bet it's not as pretty a penny as you think.
I don't know about Canada, but in California (and maybe other states), if you pay cash, doctors will charge as much as 50% less. They'll negotiate.

Speaking of cosmetic surgery, I was watching a Hallmark Christmas movie last night and could not finish watching it due to Marlowe Thomas' ~ nose. I've read that she has had cosmetic surgery on nose a couple of times. Why? I'm sure it was ok prior to the surgeries. It looks more like a Michael Jackson nose .... now. I'm not being mean, I don't think she needed cosmetic surgery to begin with.

Honestly, I wouldn't know where to start. I asked my husband what he thought and he said
"Please don't change anything, when I look at you I still see the 15yr old girl I fell in love with." Then I said Oh Wait I just remembered you need an eye exam.

I so much enjoyed Marlowe Thomas but have not seen her in the Hallmark Christmas movie yet, I
hope it shows on my Hallmark channel sometime soon again ~

I once thought of having work done on my mug, but all that hammering and chiselling would have given me a headache.

If I was to get my nose chiseled, I'd have two nostrils only.

I'd like a breast lift. Not an augmentation, as I am relatively happy with the size. I am not, however, happy with the location, which is nearer the Equator than I like. I'd be content with the Midwest, perhaps Chicago.

Unfortunately, they tell me all the hydraulic cranes are booked until 2024.....

I haven't seen that particular Hallmark movie yet, but I've read others comments on her facial/cosmetic procedures, and how they didn't feel it was her best look. Like they majorly screwed up.

I feel as you do, in that she never seemed to need any cosmetic procedures, she looks lovely just the way she is/was.

eta: oh nose.......

 

[dobielvr]

May be just a little botox....to remove some of these lines on my face.

Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with what I've got for being 69 yrs old.

I've decided not to mess with perfection.
