How did you find the nose filler? I was looking at this, but my main issue is that I would like my nose a little smaller so I’m not sure ‘adding’ anything would really help.Had filler on my nose/jawline and would love a proper nose job.
Ah I was considering the under chin injections but you’ve made me rethink it now. What would you recommend instead then? XI'm a copywriter for a marketing firm that specializes in plastic surgery, so I know most current cosmetic treatments front to back. Saw someone earlier in the thread mention the "under the chin injections" for fat reduction. I'd 100% not recommend those. Painful, awkward, not worth the money. Even the surgeons themselves laugh about how awful the treatment is haha
I'd also be happy to answer any questions people might have! I write about this stuff all day for a living.
Thank you- that was the only thing I would have had done. What is the betree solution for that?

Oh god same. I cringe at anything being near my eye. Had to use eye drops a while ago and that was hard work.I’ve always wanted to get my nose done, but too scared of the things that could go wrong.
Also really want laser eye surgery, but the procedure looks terrifying. I can’t even put contacts in.
What would you suggest for jowls and a very wrinkly neck.

I had laser eye surgery a few years ago and wouldn’t hesitate doing it again. The freedom of not wearing glasses or contacts is wonderful. A word of caution though, see a specialist and more than one clinic before going ahead. My husband was all set to have it done after a clinic saying he would have no problems and trying to push him to make an early appointment. He had a nagging doubt and had a private consultation with an eye surgeon who told him he was in no way a candidate for the surgery and risked going blind if he went ahead with it. He said if my husband had gone to him for the surgery he would have refused to do it as it was too risky. If you are a candidate for it though, go for it as it is life changing.I’ve always wanted to get my nose done, but too scared of the things that could go wrong.

I would love information about a jaw lift (not sure if that’s the right term - I want to get rid of the saggy skin around my jawline and jowls I am getting as I get older). Likely cost, pain, recovery time etcI'm a copywriter for a marketing firm that specializes in plastic surgery, so I know most current cosmetic treatments front to back.

You'd honestly be surprised -- losing weight can make a big difference on fat below the chin. If you're looking for a more dramatic improvement though, your best options would probably be either liposuction or CoolSculpting. Liposuction is obviously a surgical procedure (aka a bit more invasive) but it will permanently remove the fat cells. CoolSculpting is nonsurgical and "freezes away" the fat cells, but it may require a series of treatment sessions over the course of a few months to get the final results you're looking for. Search for "CoolMini" if you'd like to learn more about the specific "under the chin" version of the CoolSculpting procedure.Thank you- that was the only thing I would have had done.

When it comes to saggy skin along the jaw and neck, a facelift or a neck lift is the best bet! These procedures will tighten the skin, readjust any drooping facial muscles, and help define the jawline. If you'd like a nonsurgical solution, you would probably want to look into laser treatments that utilize radiofrequency (RF) energy. The heat from the laser stimulates collagen production and helps tone the area, but the results won't be as dramatic as a traditional surgical procedure.I would love information about a jaw lift (not sure if that’s the right term - I want to get rid of the saggy skin around my jawline and jowls I am getting as I get older).

For the record, the fat reduction injections do work. But from what I've heard from clients, the recovery process makes you look like a bullfrog after and can be fairly uncomfortable.

As for cost, I'm an American so I only know North American prices. A facelift usually goes for around 10 to 15k. The cost can vary a bit depending on your surgeon's level of experience, etc. But this is definitely a procedure you shouldn't cut corners on! It's worth the investment -- it's your face after all, haha. When it comes to recovery, you can expect to go back to work around 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure. But your results will continue to develop over several months as your skin and muscles settle into place and swelling subsides.
late reply but: I did! I had an endoscopic eyebrowlift 1,5 years ago (when I was 30). My eyes were very hooded, the weight of my eyelids was literally so heavy, I spoke to a surgeon and thought I just needed an eyelid correction. He told me straight away that the problem was my eyebrows. they were quite low under my brow bone so if would have done eyelid surgery, my eyes would become even more saggy and my brows even lower.Has anyone here ever done anything for hooded/sagging eyelids? That's the one that really tempts me but unlike fillers, botox, breasts or noses - I can't say I've ever spoken to anyone who has had it addressed.
Have you been investigated for muscle separation? I had c section twins in 2020 and have diastasis recti which is preventing me from shifting the postpartum baby shelf despite being thin again. I have been in physio for a few months, but I'm having a tummy tuck this year as I am so upset with my stomach. I have saved £6000 for the procedure thus far and I know it will be one of the most expensive things I ever buy myself (some places let you pay it off over 5 years). I am quite scared but also really excited to feel more me again.like an earlier poster I have a tummy apron following a c-sec. This is despite being a healthy weight and having good core strength. I hate it but don’t like the idea of a big abdominal operation, don’t have the time for the down time afterwards and don’t have the money either. I’m 44 and have no wrinkles but have lost elasticity in my lower face, i have the nose to mouth trough on either side of my face. I got asked for ID recently when buying alcohol that’s because I was wearing a mask, had I not been I’d have looked my age. Anyways if I had money and time I’d consider procedures to deal with both areas of concern, does anyone have any experiences they can share?
Like you I hate my tummy. I think i may have muscle separation but never had that investigated. Has the physio helped you? would love to hear more about your story once you’ve had the op. I think there are many people who have a tummy shelf/apron but very few people talk about it so thanks for sharing your comments.

I have spoke to countless tummy tuck surgeons - and my advice would be to ignore those who pour so much money into advertising e.g Mya or Harley Medical and look into whether NHS surgeons at your hospital do private procedures on the side (loads do) they don't advertise as their work speaks for itself. They prefer you are 100% sure you do not want another a child and you must be within 0.5 stone of your goal weight before you have surgery. I'll happily share more once I've had my surgery
