Anyone had one ?

No

Thought about a "gentle" one!

DanniRae Wed 16-Oct-24 16:14:11

No

No. I’m trying to embrace the ageing process and not fight it. Waste of time, money and energy.

I have a caci facial monthly, it's more commonly know as , a non surgical face lift . It works well for me , I also have botox, on my frown lines, forehead and lines around my eyes . I do it for myself, not for anyone else. Results are amazing , I'm 60 now and would definitely have a surgical face lift in the future

No, same as LaCrepescule.

No. I have a longish face, but luckily not saggy.

rafichagran Wed 16-Oct-24 17:06:36

No me neither.

I 'm dreading getting older for the simple reality that I will age like my mother! She didn't age like a fine wine; more like a cheap cider.
I'm not vain but I really have no wish to look like her. I would like to look like Queen Camilla or Judith Chalmers or Dame Judy Dench please. 🤔

Time and talent stolen from the NHS.

Ilovedogs - that made me smile 😂

A good friend had one, it was 😮 subtle, hardly noticeable and she looked great. Still looking good 15 years later. I get tired of hearing people say she can’t possibly be nearly 77.

Macadia Wed 16-Oct-24 17:55:46

Luckily, my skin doesn't need one. If it did, I don't know. Probably not because I don't dye my hair or wear any make up or jewelry. I just believe my body is a vessel for my soul. I'll be moving on soon enough anyways.

Macadia Wed 16-Oct-24 18:01:52

Call me naive but I just read what a face lift procedure is and No, I would never ever do that. Why not use makeup or botox instead, or that prescription wrinkle cream.

foxie48 Wed 16-Oct-24 18:24:46

A younger friend has "tweakments" ie a bit of botox and a bit of filler and she looks great. I think I've left it too long but although I wouldn't want a surgical face lift if I were 15 years younger I'd be tempted to have "tweakments" especially if they could preserve my chin which seems determined to disappear.

BlueBelle Wed 16-Oct-24 18:48:26

I have no problem with my face exactly as it is

midgey Wed 16-Oct-24 18:51:24

My face needs scaffolding not lifting.

I just use a large bulldog clip at the back of my head. Lifts and tightens instantly!

I've tried that but it shows my bald patch!

pably15 Wed 16-Oct-24 19:32:55

no I wouldn't, when I see what some of the so called "stars"look like after these procedures..I'll go along with Grunty, a bulldog clip....

Grandma70s Wed 16-Oct-24 20:02:02

I wouldn’t dream of it - too old now, anyway - but a friend of mine did and I must admit she looked wonderful. She didn’t tell me she’d had it, and she asked if I’d noticed anything about her All that I’d noticed was that she looked particularly good. I think that’s ideal. She didn’t look very different, just better. She had done lots of research about it, where to have it done and so on.

Yes I had my neck and lower face lifted ?8 years ago and my face lifted last year.
Very subtle, loved the results.
I’m a medical professional, working with the public everyday, I was fed up of looking tired and saggy.
It’s given me so much confidence and I don’t regret it one bit.

Lift and tighten too much and you could end up with a Goatee Beard
