Not the bravest when it comes to face rejuvination

I never thought I would see the day that my beatiful daughter said, "Mom, I have to do something about my brown spots and constant new appearing wrinkles." Why not," I thought, after all my little girl is now 50 years old. I recommended a procedure called "Younger Face", a 9 day face mask, that I had done in Miami Beach. If you ask me how I feel and react to having cosmetic work done on my face, I would respond, "Who cares?" Burning, stinging, discomfort, swelling, bed ridden, starvation, does not bother me. I am focused on the end result, looking good. I do major research before any procedure so I am confident about my doctor.
So that morning I drove my daughter to the clinic, and left her in the doctors hands for two days. She would have the procedure done and stay for two nights just as I had done. I eagerly went to pick her up to take her home to nurture her for the remaining seven days. There she was sitting in a chair with her back to me as I entered the room. She looked scary with a white mask on her swollen face. She told me she has a fever, she is miserable, dizzy and naucious. I panicked, running for the doctor who told me all is well and this is a normal reaction. I brought my daughter home but on the turn of the next day, she continued, "This is terrible, I am nausious, my face hurts, I cannot sleep or eat, I had no idea what this is like, I was up the whole night, the tylenol p. m. made me naucious so I took pepto bismol; this is no easy thing, she said lying down and staring into space completely miserable.
O. K. Here is the point of my story. We are all different. Here we are mother and daughter and to me it was just another procedure, to my daughter it was a tramatic experience that was difficult for her to go through... End Result???? New found beauty and that she can be sure. Carol Sue Gershman
