The interview
Who are you and where are you from?
My name is Dawn Wallace. I'm from North Carolina, and I am a dentist.
Why did you choose Dr. Gould over local surgeons?
I had done a couple of consults in my home state and I wasn't thrilled. Then I saw him on Instagram and started looking at his before and afters and I loved them. The three things I really wanted were a natural result, no scars, and no pain because I don't like pain meds.
What were your specific concerns regarding the facelift and brow lift?
The very first thing that makes me nervous about a facelift is it being unnatural. I'm 57 years old, so my hair is thinning, and I was really concerned about scars, especially with the brow lift. He walked me through how it would be a little bit further back, and I cannot see a single scar anywhere.
What was your experience with pain management?
I hate pain medication; it makes me feel terrible. His approach to pain management is second to none. I only took pain meds for 48 hours, and really it wasn't because I was in any kind of pain, but I didn't want to get behind. From that point on, I only took Tylenol to sleep.
What was the recovery timeline like for you?
When I first got out of surgery your face is unrecognizable, but every single day you get better and better. I would say by day 14, I was definitely ready to go and could do anything at all.
What specific procedures did you have done during your first surgery?
The very first procedure that I had done with him was a deep plane face and neck, a brow lift, fat grafting, CO2 laser, and then I had my big implants—they were huge—removed and a breast lift.
How did Dr. Gould handle your hernia repair?
I had spoken to him about my hernia, and a lot of plastic surgeons really don't like to work on the hernia; they were gonna send me to a general surgeon. He said, 'I can do abdominoplasty, and I can fix this hernia,' and everything was fabulous again.
What was the aftercare experience like for an out-of-town patient?
The aftercare is second to none. They had everything planned for me from my hyperbaric oxygen chamber to the ride back. They even made sure I had a protein smoothie because I wasn't hungry but they knew I needed to eat. He came to see me 2 or 3 times to make sure I was okay and that my garments were on properly.
Frequently asked
Will a brow lift leave visible scars if I have thinning hair?
Dawn Wallace was concerned about scarring due to her thinning hair at age 57, but Dr. Gould placed the incisions further back. She reported that she cannot see a single scar anywhere after the procedure.
How painful is the recovery for a facelift and breast lift?
Dawn Wallace noted that Dr. Gould's approach to pain management is 'second to none.' She only took pain medication for 48 hours to stay ahead of discomfort, and after that, only used Tylenol to help her sleep.
Can a plastic surgeon repair a hernia during an abdominoplasty?
Yes, Dawn Wallace mentioned that while other surgeons wanted to refer her to a general surgeon, Dr. Gould was able to perform the abdominoplasty and fix her hernia simultaneously with fabulous results.
