I am considering some 'nip/tuck' surgery, face and neck, to tighten up the skin, as I am not 'going quietly' Any thoughts/experience?

A prior woman friend, hand a face/neck 'lift' and I did not think she needed it, but apparently she did? I hardly notice a difference in her 'skin-tone' /tightness, as her face was very smooth and even before hand... and additionally have a girl in my YOGA class that had a 'skin peel' and the same with her, as she is very cute with nice skin?

Do we sometimes see skin problems, that are not what others see, or do we magnify them in our own mind?

Honestly I wouldn't trust any doctor these days. I heard too many horror stories about a routine surgery gone wrong.
I hope you're not trying to look like a pretty boy, are you?

@sage2021 I may not do it and instead, go to my Dermatologist and have her do what she and her assistant describe as a very 'mild skin peel, just to tighten up the skin.
Not some 'major' reconstruction ! LOLOL

I'd say not to do it, but honestly, I'm working towards my own plastic surgery for a breast augmentation so I'd be a hypocrit for saying it. Do what makes you happiest as you only have one life to live. If it makes you feel more confident and you have the means to do it, then by all means, go for it.

I only say no because the idea of doing facial/neck work scare me. I feel if I did it, I'd be unrecognizable to myself and I already struggle with my self image as it is.

@Ez-Bri-Z_v2 My surgeon is a "minimalist" in that he is not one of those guy as described by 'Drygermanguy" and doesn't try to convert an older fact to that of a 20 year old.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

That's definitely better than looking like a Matt Gaetz, who you can tell has had work and can barely show facial expressions, lol

Do what makes you happiest, my friend. In the end, if you are happy then those closets to you should support it.

One of our well known TV anchors had a facelift and it looked rather ridiculous. They gave him the face of a 20 year-old, when everything else on him still looks like a 60 year-old. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

@DryGermanGuy LOLOL!

Nip tuck surgery at 45? You're doing something wrong. Or maybe some people just age faster than others.

[Bricealan]

@OneViewpoint Probably correct.

[Dongie]

Check out some movie actors and see what the future holds before you do.

Go to the gym instead.

[Bricealan]

Probably the better suggestion !!! LOLOL
