Caroline’s rejuvenation journey with Dr. Lindsey in Washington DC
Caroline is an ideal patient. She’s got great bone structure. She follows instructions. And she’s chatty…..in fact the original video was 20 minutes long which we whittled down to this length. Listen to her describe her short scar facelift with Dr. Lindsey.
00:18
hi dr. Lindsey here with Caroline on
00:21
whom I’ve worked for a couple of years
00:23
and I met her three or four years ago
00:26
when her sister on him we’ve worked in a
00:29
bunch of her friends referred Caroline
00:31
in for some Botox and when I met you
00:32
back a couple of years ago Caroline I
00:35
have to get told you that you need to do
00:36
a few things and we used our way into
00:38
this with some Botox right absolutely
00:40
mom what did I tell you back then okay
00:42
you did the first thing you told me that
00:44
the minute I sat down was if you need an
00:46
eye lift and that’s interesting that you
00:48
brought that up considering that one of
00:51
my eyes has always in my earliest baby
00:53
pictures has always been droopy but over
00:56
the last 11 years when I founded my
00:58
company actually 13 years ago the last
01:02
11 years seemed to have made the eyelid
01:06
droop in more it just wears you down it
01:10
it totally wears me down and so
01:13
eventually we got around to doing a
01:17
short scar rotted back to me or a mini
01:19
facelift in your upper eyelids roughly
01:21
seven or eight weeks ago great well I
01:23
think what happened was I came back for
01:25
some more Botox and you said you know
01:28
what you really need to consider you
01:30
know XYZ if money were no object if you
01:33
had all the time in the world which I
01:35
don’t because I run a company with a
01:37
very tight schedule but she said boy you
01:40
would be amazing
01:43
and and you told the truth which I which
01:46
I really appreciated
01:47
it’s not like I didn’t know that I
01:49
wasn’t looking you know 65 when I was
01:52
really only 54 but because my schedule
01:55
and so forth you know the work had
01:58
really taken a toll on my entire face
02:01
and you said you know maybe you should
02:05
think about doing the eye lift I also
02:09
talked to my sister and about 10 of her
02:12
friends that you’ve done this s-lift
02:14
procedure for I did my research and and
02:18
said okay let’s go forward and what I
02:20
really appreciated about you dr. Charlie
02:23
is you were very number one you were
02:26
truthful but number two you were very
02:27
very informative you told me exactly
02:31
what to expect every step of the process
02:34
with each procedure so I felt secure in
02:38
knowing that not only were you you know
02:43
easy on the eyes and and the consummate
02:46
professional but you really put me at
02:48
ease in knowing okay for this first part
02:50
here’s what you can expect here’s what
02:53
you can expect after I finish the
02:55
procedure here’s what you can expect day
02:56
1 day 2 day 5 um you checked in with me
03:00
I felt very very well cared for
03:04
between you and Wendy your office
03:07
manager and assistant who is the most
03:10
unbelievable assistant out there shoes
03:13
she is um you made this process very
03:17
palatable so I think the audience can
03:20
tell it’s you fairly high-strung yeah
03:23
little tight bag we did this with just a
03:26
little valium right yes and which I had
03:29
never taken before by the way and the
03:30
only part that hurt was the numbing up
03:32
right didn’t didn’t hurt when I was
03:34
doing it no it definitely didn’t hurt
03:36
and we actually talked as you were doing
03:39
it so that I wasn’t paying attention I
03:41
mean after all you’re cutting open my
03:42
eyelids that’s a little scary for for
03:46
most people but my trust in you and
03:49
Wendy was solid the entire time and I’m
03:52
not sure if what he was holding my hand
03:53
but I just breathed and you were calm
03:56
and I knew that that I was in very very
04:00
good hands
04:01
and that that you were the right person
04:04
because I was guaranteed by you the
04:07
results that if I did this I would end
04:11
up looking the best I could possibly
04:13
look I guarantee and in any case after
04:19
we got done you wrapped up pretty tight
04:21
the first night and that thing’s a pain
04:24
in the neck isn’t it absolutely the head
04:27
wrap is annoying it’s itchy but I’m a
04:29
rule follower and I’m like your sister
04:32
and a bunch of her friends got to keep
04:34
that head wrap on said Frank skins so
04:37
everything stays where we put and I did
04:38
absolutely everything you told me to
04:42
because when I say you guaranteed
04:44
results
04:45
you guaranteed results that could be the
04:47
best for me which was all I care about I
04:50
don’t care what some what the results of
04:52
someone else’s facelift were and I left
04:55
and you know thirty percent chemical
04:57
peel I cheered what it was going to do
04:59
for me right so I followed directions
05:02
and so I’m using pictures of sent me and
05:07
then a week you get your six days you
05:09
got your stitches out crack and you look
05:10
pretty good and you went back to all
05:13
your activities I still look like I’d be
05:15
another street fight but yes I mean I I
05:19
pretty much resume normal activity I
05:21
wasn’t meeting with clients yet but I
05:22
was definitely out and about and then I
05:24
had you start getting your face ready
05:26
for a chemical peel which we did roughly
05:27
three and a half weeks yeah that’s
05:30
exactly right you suggested that I use
05:31
the you know a stri Becton or topical
05:35
topical ointment for about thirty almost
05:39
thirty days to prepare my face so that
05:41
the peel would be effective whose retina
05:43
not stress or Brett name excuse me I’m
05:45
sorry and then you came in and we domed
05:48
up your face and did the chemical peel
05:49
that stings
05:51
right that was again if I didn’t if I
05:55
didn’t trust in you and the process and
05:57
no you knew exactly what you were doing
05:59
I might have been concerned but again
06:03
wendy was there Wendy the champion Wendy
06:05
the cheerleader I’m just holding my hand
06:08
and talking me through it and you know
06:10
ready with the ice pack it it stung for
06:14
less than an hour as a matter of fact
06:17
when I was in the chair it didn’t even
06:19
last more than five minutes like
06:21
whatever and the reason I like as you
06:24
know there is not like a chemical fuel
06:25
over a laser which I have given up doing
06:28
is simply with the chemical fuel you
06:30
just keep applying it until you get the
06:32
results that you want rather than fire a
06:34
trigger and poof I went to skin and and
06:37
dermis is gone you just apply the apply
06:40
just like paint and when you get the
06:42
color of the toy that you want it then
06:44
you quit and it’s I think it’s very safe
06:46
I am very I’m very I’m a Sun worshipper
06:50
and always have been and this was a big
06:53
step for me um you look pretty rough too
06:55
during the week though as I told you
06:56
right
06:57
and then at a week you could start
06:58
putting makeup on and it’s hard to get a
07:00
busy lady like you to come back and see
07:02
me so it’s been a little while since
07:03
you’ve had all this done and she came in
07:04
today you look beautiful
07:05
thank you I I you know I feel beautiful
07:07
and people have told me over the last
07:09
couple of weeks Wow
07:10
what is it um what did you do you look
07:14
great you look 15 years younger I
07:16

07:18
