Joined: May 2002 Posts: 2,152 | I'm also contemplating seeing about a minor face lift. The surgeon who did my total laryngectomy and second neck dissection on my radiated skin has given me a name of another plastic surgeon in the HUP system that has experience doing surgery on people who have had radiation. If I ever get around to making the appointment, I'll let you know what he says. I'm curious as to what you find out.
Take care,
Eileen
