Are non surgical facelifts worth the money we spend on it?

My wife's behind to me get a non surgical facelift from this place in Richmond Hill Non-Surgical Facelift Treatments Richmond Hill | Centre for Dermatology.

I basically don't want my wife to do this coz I feel its just a waste of money. Can someone tell me how to convince my wife?

Waste of money. A temporary solution at best. But this is just my opinion. I've friends who've had them and they have that deer-caught-in-the-headlights-look-of-surprise which is shocking not attractive.

Better yet, be supportive instead of your wife's transition as she ages. Be understanding of such changes particularly as they relate to her appearance.

I am more concerned about why she feels such tactics are necessary and wonder what messages in her life are leading her to fret over her changing appearance. This is what must be dealt with and is far more important than such procedures. Imagine how much harder it will be on her when/if the 'fix' begins to reverse.

Instead be loving and caring of her letting her know she is fabulous just the way she is. Be a cheerleader and encourage her to embrace ageing rather than confirm in her mind the horror she is evidently feeling. Help her to challenge those false ideals our culture seems to value.

Oh my gosh. Something else I’ve done that I’ve forgotten about.

I’ve had a problem with mania and hypomania, and this is something else I’ve done uncharacteristic of me. I had my lips injected once right before vacation and ended up with a reaction (swelling!!). I had to take steroids, and the dermatologist wouldn’t give me any more towards the end of the swelling because it looked fine to him. And he refused to reverse the procedure, saying there’s a risk of damaging tissue.

I can’t tell you how stressful that was.

It is so temporary too. It doesn’t last as long as they say (thank goodness). Obviously, it dissipates over time—it’s not like it’s there the full time and then gone. So people will see it when she’s injected.

Also, it’s obviously expensive and temporary.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
