Nothing and will stick to my mantra of only having surgery if it's medically necessary.

There must be at least one 'fette who's had mingeoplasty.

The new name for a Montydate?

I'm interested in this.

I'm thinking about getting some botox.

How did you all get to be so old and still only be considering it?? Tox up

I would like to try fraxel for my gross crepey eyelids but fear it doesn't work that well 

I had botox over 10 years ago but due to my eyes being the way they are it looked worse not better and I'd need blepharoplasty if I were to do botox again.  It's the fillers I'd be worried about.  Face altering shape etc and just looking plain "weird" or "done".  I do plan on having Blepharoplasty though due to my hereditary eyes.

I think at 45+ it starts to be time for the surgery

I would quite like a facelift now but biding my time (maybe I will become a spiritual and good person before then instead)

fillers can be good if done by the right person but I think they have to have a sympathy for your face and many people who work in that line don't

Yes a facelift done well can look amazing but they can look awful too.  Remember Sharon Osbourne.  Prob on her 3rd facelift now and it looks awful but one of her previous ones looked great.  Yesterday I read in the comments section of DM about a facelift someone had and it put me off although truly I'd never go there anyway.  I'm a lawyer not an actress/model.  The recovery can take months and you have to wear a compression head set up all the time... 

I have had Botox and filler, but would only recommend Botox. Filler did nothing for me and it seemed to dissolve very quickly. Botox really does last a good 6 months ime. 

Botox for forehead wrinkles?  I'm concerned about my marionette and smokers lines.

I doubt I will ever be interested in this although I know plenty of people who do. I care more about being fit or strong than trying to make my face look less aged. 

I went to a party recently where a friend's wife turned up looking totally insane/frozen. I assume it will calm down and she'd only just had it done but that sort of thing certainly puts me off.

facelifts and cosmetic surgery always looks shit 

you only have to turn on one of those real housewives shows and see the weird playdoh faces that don't fit the sunken eyes wearing them to see it's a fcuking terrible idea 

I get that you might want botox in your 20s/30s to stave off looking frowny in your 50s but that east coast american cat face shit is rank

Yes Mistee, only on my forehead and eyes (and a juggernaut of a number 11). I tried filler on my smokers' lines but it was a waste of time. 

I was thinking botox for my neck/shoulders.

Monty - do you actually smoke?  Mine are genuine smokers lines :(  I would have thought filler would have worked??  Why not?  I would just be frightened that over time you'd need more and more and end up with a funny fat piece above your lip?  It's the media's fault.  If you saw Jennifer Aniston, J Lo etc, all looking good but with frown lines etc - I personally would be made up as that's reality.

You can't tell good facelifts cos they're good

Mistee - I am an ex-smoker, yes, but the dermal filler just seemed to do very little and then dissolve within a couple of weeks. Waste of money and time! 

I would also love to see a few good honest celeb wrinkles out in the wild. And a few who aren't clearly on Mounjaro, while we're at it. 

when i get a haircut i get the chap to do the ear/nose hair and a bit of a trim of the eyelashes.

wouldn't want to over-do it

sometimes I resent men

I think being very pale and liable to sunburn has been good for me. Avoiding the sun and using factor 50 makes more difference than anything, and I was a smoker for years.

Avoiding spending too much time IRL with people who care about this sort of thing is also beneficial.

It seems unlikely to be true that you can't tell a good facelift. I can't prove a negative but it's plainly obvious on lots of people.

What clubbers said. Sometimes if I get the Turkish chap he burns the ear hair which feels a bit extreme. 

Fettes DO NOT HAVE FILLERS everyone I know who has had them (and a LOT of women do in Dubai) has ended up looking weird.  Botox seems to work very well for some people. 

DD that is interesting you should say that as that is my worry.  I'm sure at first it may look ok for certain things but eventually you surely need to use more and more as the skin stretches and you just look plainly unnatural.  EG Sophia Vegara.  Naturally beautiful woman but she's now got the Joker smile which is a horrid weird look.  I was at a dinner party and a photo was taken.  The woman next to me had a smile twice as wide as mine.  She looked deranged.

Again, you only know the people you know have had them because they look terrible 

Don't get me wrong ageing like a natural french hottie is better but not an option for most

Often it does not look good. People don’t seem to be fully able to assess what too much looks like on themselves.  I would recommend retinol, serums and facial oil and it need not be expensive plus smiling (through gritted teeth for me)

Yes I am not going down that route I have decided.  I will get Blepharoplasty as its needed (not just cosmetically) and then if I so desire I can get forehead botox but I think I'll leave the filler alone.  I have good bone structure so think I haven't aged toooo badly and on my 50th I must have had about 30 people or so all tell me they thought I was early/mid 30's??? Not that I believe that mind. It will be interesting to see how Amanda Holden fares over the next few years.  I think she is getting to the point where its v obvious with the lumps near her marionette lines.

Well some women do just look younger so revel in it I say.

My main concern is wasting money. I think a lot of things cost a fortune for no discerns difference. See eg ultherapy.
