“You Look So Well”

by | Nov 11, 2024 | Blog, Facelift

Each person’s experience of cancer is uniquely challenging. For many, what truly matters to them comes more sharply into focus.

Before and Six Weeks after Deep Plane Face and Necklift Surgery with Dr Marcells

Life is beautiful

Living well is a creative act.

Family, our close relationships and health are universally essential for quality of life.

Self-expression and having a sense of purpose are important too.

We are allowed to want what we want, and this is going to be different for each of us.

More to life

One of my patients told me that she had always planned to have a facelift when she turned 60.

She had been visiting a cosmetic physician for over two decades to receive non-surgical treatments such as injections with fillers and muscle relaxing toxins. While these treatments had suited her at first, by the time she booked in for a consultation with me she said that her face “did not feel like her own”.   There was a migration of filler, swelling and dark circles under her eyes.

Motivation

My patient’s plans were thwarted when she discovered she had cancer and then underwent what she described as the “Platinum Package” – a series of treatments that saved her life but left her feeling very low. They also left her complexion looking grey, pale, tired and stressed.

Getting the ‘all clear’

After surviving cancer, patients who want to have Deep Plane Face and Necklift surgery need a letter of clearance from their oncologist or other cancer treatment specialist stating they are medically fit to proceed.

There are certain medications that they need to stop taking and these also must be approved by their specialist.

My patient’s health is always the priority – for them and for me.

Identity

People who have had cancer are courageous survivors. But this doesn’t need to become their primary identity. It is powerful to be able to choose how we face the world.

For another of my patients, experiencing cancer gave her permission to do what she wanted to do. She realised that ‘life is short’ and the Deep Plane Face and Necklift surgery she had been thinking about, once recovered, became the things she went ahead with.

Awareness, Information, Consideration

Elective surgery, including Deep Plane Face and Neck Lift surgery, is for healthy, confident, people who are psychologically and medically fit to assess what’s right for themselves.

It’s important to consider that Deep Plane Face and Necklift surgery are advanced procedures that only a few surgeons in Australia can perform well.

Best fit procedure

Only after her deep Plane Face and Necklift surgery did my patient realise that fillers could only do so much, and not much at all for addressing skin laxity.

Uplifting

My patient is a private person who only told her husband and daughter she had the procedure.

“You look really well”, was the main comment she received from friends.
