@Shanus Yes, the botched face jobs are really scary. As we age we just have to love ourselves for the women we are. You know that old saying "Beauty is only skin deep." How true that is.

The best procedure, whatever it might be, is one where you don't notice much change. It just makes a person look better, more refreshed and younger looking. Those are the best kinds, not the ones which make a person look different.

I have been having microneedling done a few times and I will say they are helping with brown sun spots and some mild acne scarring. I had started before the pandemic but then of course, had to stop. I think I have had about four treatments so far and I do notice improvement with discoloration and a bit of softening on some wrinkling. I don't care what anybody says it is somewhat painful, although not extremely so and you are redfaced for about a day. The facialist does use a numbing cream but you still feel it on the bony areas of your face such as the skull.
I have also decided that I was using too harsh products and have gone to a much more mild, natural product line and I think that is helping improve my skin somewhat. Microneedling and facials are about as far as I will go with "procedures".

looking into Plasma Pen (skin tightening) treatments. i have wanted an eyelid lift for awile now. and i want some lazer resurfacing to smooth out sun damage.
What can be treated with the Plasma Pen?

Hooded eyes, loose skin above the eyes, and bags and puffiness below the eyes that would otherwise require blepharoplasty [eyelift] surgery
Bags under the eyes that would otherwise require blepharoplasty surgery
Areas with excess skin on the face, neck, and body that may be due to aging, environmental factors, and weight loss
Nasolabial folds [smile lines that extend from the nose to the corner of the mouth]
Marionette lines [vertical lines at the corners of the mouth]
Furrows and crow’s feet
Forehead lines that would otherwise require correction by browlift surgery
Sagging jowls that become more prominent with aging
Sagging neck and décolleté

I have been using Nurse Jamie Uplift Facial Massaging Beauty Roller. You can get it at Ulta and Sephora. I have been using this for the past year, and I have to honestly say that I am seeing a difference in my face. Its certainly not a face lift or anything dramatic, but its a subtle change. I see more definition in my cheekbones, and I see firmness in my jowl line. I use this at night after I have washed my face. I usually spend about 15 minutes rolling it on my face while I am watching TV. I like to use this about 5 -6 nights a week. Sometimes if I have extra time in the morning, I will use it then also. There are videos on YouTube that will show you exactly how to use the roller.
And when I first started using this, after about a month, I really did not see any changes at all. I thought, wow, another waste of money. But you have to give it time, because after about 4 months, and with consistent use, I did start to see a difference.
Good luck with whatever you decide to try.

Thank you for your reply. What type of practitioner would you go to to get this treatment done? I'm new at this.

I was watching a daytime talk show a few years ago, and one of the actresses said that the creams, serums, etc DONT work, only plastic surgery works! So, with that I try only use organic creams, or close to it. I just bought Farmhouse Fresh, they got great reviews here. I'm not looking for miracles, only needed a lot of good moisture for dry skin, body and face! Less then plastic surgery, are fillers and Botox. They are expensive, but are noninvasive. If you're going to do the fillers, don't go to just any body,,it could be very dangerous and mess up your face if it's not done by a doctor who is reputable!! I'm going to try some home devices, Nuface for face and body, and others. They look like a cheaper alternative to fillers, but only a temporary one.
PS, I never heard of a Plasm Pen.

I would love to have excess skin removed from my eyelids. That's my only real issue...hooded eyes. But I think I'm just starting to develop some "jowls"

No procedures at all, anywhere. Just good overall skincare and products. I think the products that i've used have kept my skin looking as good as it does. I get compliments all the time. I see people my age who have skin that looks like luggage. Part of that are genes, but a good part is how much attention you pay to keeping your skin in good shape and some of it are the products you use. No product will give you facelift results but they can help keep your skin looking healthy. That's my goal.

Me, either...no procedures.
If you're talking about skin texture and moisture, creams & topicals are most beneficial. I'm sure there's more to it than that. Good overall health, good diet, general happiness... The poor stuff takes a toll visibly on the face.
I'm on the order of the Nurse Jamie roller, only I use amla massage, manipulating any fascia and lymph. And I'm one for consistency, so I do mine daily for only a few minutes.
If anything else gets by the cracks of my preventative skin care, I'm perfectly okay with it!
