Plastic surgery

A friend of my wife's had her neck tightened. It came out really nice. Great job, I thought. She told us that all the surgeon did was to pull the sides of the neck back and up under the ears and then sewed it in place. She stayed awake for the procedure. A little bruising, but not too bad. She had to stay in the hotel across the street for one night and go back in the morning for the surgeon to check everything. She also told us that it was well worth the $5500.00 it cost her.

This lady is kind of vane. My wife doesn't think so, but she talks a lot about having procedures done. A few years back, she had her teeth replaced with one of those "new teeth in 1 day" companies we all see advertised on TV. I think she said that was around $25,000.00. Truthfully, I didn't like them on her. They don't look like they belong in her mouth, if you can understand that.

This lady got a divorce about 10 years ago to a former state legislator. That ruined his career. He was livid.

Sounds a bit less invasive so that definitely is appealing

She's had her face done more than Joan Rivers, however compared to many celebs and their face-lifts I think she had a good surgeon... . Trouble is with full face plastic surgery it has to be done every few years..something else has to be lifted here or there, and I wouldn't want to do that, nor could I afford it even if I did, but something like the under eye bags or a brow life, can make a huge difference

Sometimes, not being able to afford something is a blessing.
 

I was thinking of doing something with the jowl neck area because I felt my skin there was beginning to droop and brought my whole face down with it. This past winter was especially bad and I didn't think I could face a summer with my neck and sub D wattle as it was. As a last ditch effort I began doing neck exercises which help enormously. I'm stunned at how much the whole area tightened up. Note: I'm not overweight, so there are no fat pockets there and with the addition of make up contouring in addition to the exercises, I can wait for awhile before doing anything drastic. But I would definitely consider a spa treatment or surgical procedure to look younger for myself because when I look younger my brain tells me "you must feel great because see how terrific you look." It's for health every bit as much as vanity if not more.

What type of neck exercises would you recommend?
 
My mother had blepharoplastry when she was in her 70's, but Medicare deemed it medically necessary for proper eyesight. I look in the mirror and see that it won't be many more years and that will be my situation, so I will have it done. That is the only plastics procedure I will ever even think about having done.

There are lots on Youtube, but I do my own.

Would you be able to share that information with me regarding what you do? I don’t know whether you can describe it or not though I’ll look it up on YouTube thanks
 
I had an orthopedic surgeon penpal a long time ago. He told me about this woman friend in San Diego who was always having plastic surgery done, ALL over her body. He emailed me her pic and at 69 she looked VERY attractive. She told him that if he had surgery done by her doctor she would get a referral discount on her next procedure. He thought about it and chickened out.

I haven't made a video - yet, but tilt your head back, point your chin to the ceiling and stretch your lower jaw forward, feeling the muscles pull and firm. 5 mins. a day will show results pretty quick. Best luck.

I found the above article. I would only consider the exercise and moisturizer section for myself, none of the injections and botox and surgery etc. My neck is not bad for my age but I do have 'jowls' at the sides of my jaw that I hate.

I saw an old episode lately of Alfred Hitchcock and the wife in the story had one of those straps under the chin and tied on top of the head, to firm a double chin. Do those things work? It would probably give ME a headache, like when I use a too tight headband.

You know what I’ve been trying that and I’m hoping it’s going to work eventually keep your fingers crossed thanks

Yep...it did for me, that's all I can say...used it for just 2 or 3 minutes every other day.
Did it for a month and then would crack my mouth up and down and did notice the TMJ wasn't very noticeable any more...then another month or so and I looked in the mirror and said, hey, my neck looks way "tighter". Hope it does the same for you, sans the TMJ if you don't need that fix...ha ha ha.
