I have a lot to say. But first what did Meg Ryan do to her face? She's still young.
Now, I'm older than you all are obvious by your posts but it's very hard to age. When you're young you think you're invincible and will never get old. But my theory was that my husband is l3 years younger than I am and I've been out of work due to illness for 8 years and scared to go back. Very needy now. I thought if I got a facelift I could gain back the years I lost and enter the job market looking l0 years younger. I really am old. Got the facelift with a lot of complications. They are gone now but it's not what I expected. I still have lines between my nose and on my forhead and around my mouth. A facelift just gives you scars and supposedly makes you look "freshened". They did remove a lot of skin[turkey neck] and my profile is better. But the remaining wrinkles? Still there and the only way to get them to look better is the fillers. Collagen, Hydroform, Restalyn, Radiance. Well I got the collegen and hyroform compliments of the doc since I'd had so many complications. But it didn't work. I go back at the end of the month and it will cost me about l500 dollars I don't have. And I don't feel or look l0 years younger. Those movie stars have so much done to them that it cost them 40 thousand or more. The average facelift is around 8000. So am I ready to go into the job market? It didn't change my mind, how it thinks. I'm still the same insecure person I was before. And I wanted a tummytuck too. But never again. I'll just get old. Oh the injections only last a few months if they work at all. I guess I should feel lucky what happened to Farrah Fawcett didn't happen to me. Remember her? But we're the same age. So I guess I'll just have to stop thinking about looks so much and look inside. It's your mind that keeps you young. Fondly, Phillipa
