You're My Kinda Person! When I was young I heard my Grandmothers complain about the "Mother Nature's reward for growing old". I was So Sad for them. Then when Mother & Mother-In-Law reached that stage where the wrinkles, sagging, etc. happened, I decided 'when the time comes I'm going to find a Cosmetic Surgeon, Give Mother Nature a Vacation & have a few "nips & Tucks". AT age 60 I Did IT! The surgery was successful, he turned back the calendar approx. 20 years! Then 12 years later I went back & he did a little more of his magic ... would I do it again, YOU BET! At age 88 I'm So Pleased when asked my age, I smile & share, & their response almost Always "Warms the cockles of My Heart" ! It's Not for Everyone, & you Have To start in your late 50's or EARLY 60's. Top Notch Surgeons will make sure you're in Good Health & follow up for +- a year after the surgery, just to be sure everything is going well.
Am I Happy with my decision? ... YOU BET! It had Definitely added to the Quality Of My Life.

PS. You have to be able to afford it. And sometimes a caregiver when you're in recovery. But good for you! I can see you smiling :-). Loved your comment! Makes me happy 🙂

@margaretfriel
Amen to that.
If one can afford it, it does add to health & happiness.
How did you find a good surgeon?

@margaretfriel why do you have to do your first face lift in your late 50’s or early 60’s? I’m 61 and thinking about it.
