Patients Story

Anna Mallon - Facelift

Anna Mallon aged 47 years old is Mum of three aged 15, 24 and 27. Anna was tired of people always telling her that she looked tired and asking her if she was feeling ok. Anna decided that after thirty years of hard work she wanted to start, what she termed as, the second phase of her life with a fresh look. Anna felt that her face looked continuously tired especially first thing in the morning when her eyes didn't look fully open anymore. She really felt that her outward appearance didn't reflect her inner self and thus decided to give herself a facelift as a present.

After much research, Anna decided to proceed with the operation under the expert hands of The Harley Medical Group's renowned Cosmetic Surgeon, Dr Francois Duminy. Since her operation Anna has never looked back. 

"I did not to want to look 21 again. I am 47 and I just wanted to look healthy, fresh and not so old worn out and tired as I was looking. I was really surprised with how the procedure went, in that I didn't experience any pain as such, just mild discomfort. The bruising and swelling which I had in the following days of the operation quickly went down and I was wearing a hair-band with my hair back off my face within two weeks, something I haven't done in decades! People I knew before my surgery, now tell me I am looking really well and can't figure out exactly what is different about me. I have had many compliments and nobody has guessed that I had a facelift. I was even asked on a date by a guy that was fixing my washing machine only days after I came out of the hospital! When I look in the mirror now, I look more like I feel on the inside." 

To complete her look, Anna also had a wrinkle relaxing injection to her forehead at The Harley Medical Group's Dublin clinic. She cannot believe the difference that it has made to her face and says that she can now go without make-up if she feels like it, something she could never previously have dreamt of.
