One year later

Jul 03, 2009

Well, one year ago on June 26th, I had plastic surgery for my tummy and "girls."  Dr. Richard Lee in Newport Beach was my surgeon and as many of you know, I think the world of him.  So what better to do on the "anniversary" of my transformation, than to have him do some more work on my eyes and lower face. 

I guess this has to be a true testament of the faith and trust I have in this gentleman.  A "botched" job on one's body can be hidden by clothes, but the face? (By the way, he did an excellent job on the body.)  Well, that takes having confidence in the ability and skill of this doctor to place myself in his hands.

It was by no means a walk in the park.  I was swollen and bruised around my eyes and neck, and of course my first reaction was "eep, what have I done?"  As the next few days passed, and after seeing him for my first post op visit, I can see a dramatic change.  The swelling is going down and the bruising is clearing up, and from the way things are looking right now, I am very pleased with the result.  Moreover, when I see him and his reaction, I feel better and better. 

As soon as I have all my before and after pictures done, I will post them.  I am so happy and grateful to have found this very wonderful surgeon who has helped me so much.
