Ft. lauderdale lifestyle lift center?

If anyone 60 and above has had the lifestyle lift in Ft. Lauderdale and has any recommendations, please let me know. I'm scheduled for one in May 2007 and am having some anxiety about what I'm reading about the horror stories. Thanks. Judy

I am having the procedure next month in Ft. Lauderdale by Dr. Westine. Any feedback on this doctor or clinic would be appreciated. Thank you. CP

I went to Ft. Lauderdale for a consult, and I was impressed so I made an appt to have it done in March with Dr Westine, any comments good or bad would be appreciated

I am considering the Lifestyle Lift. I am 58 and have saggy skin and wrinkles. PLease give me as much input/feedback as you can on your experiences, ladies. What are the pros and cons to you? Thanks so much, jackiejoe

My hubby passes and ive lost a lot of weight over the years. I have been thin for many years but need a boost.....on my neck only a tiny bit and a tiny bit on sides with eyes...Im only 45..... Any Idea how much this cost..they quoted way too high for a bit...do i go to miami?????????

It is about 5 thousand

Am thinking of going to Fort Lauderdale for LL procedure, but like the sound of the female doctor who does not cut in front of ears, but inside, would love to know who this is and would really appreciate someone's help in this matter. Thanks so much.

I would also like this information! Jackie

Hi all, I am 54 and just had the LL done this week. The facility in Ft Lauderdale is very clean and comfortable but I felt they were lacking in the "finer things". I really expected to be pampered and wasn't. I am having an extraordinary amount of pain even with the extra pain medication. Hopefully the results will make it all worth it.

Hi I am scheduled for a Lifestyle Lift consultation very soon in Fort Lauderdale. How are you doing? How much "downtime" have you experienced. I am 49 and was looking to just tighten the neck a bit. thanks

Wow it's been a month since I posted here. Downtime was a good two weeks. I hurt so much I could barely wash let alone use make-up. I would never have done this had I known. The results are "ok" so far. My neck looks fabulous. The rest, face and upper eyes ehhh...better yes but not "right". About the facility...it was very assembly line and not private. When I asked for a screen to be put up to remove my stitches I was rudely told no, that only personnel use that hallway, yet I had just come down that way. The person who removed my stitches was beyond rough! I was already in such incredible pain that it was just a nightmare. I had "awakened" during the lift procedure and after begging the Dr to stop and give me another Valium he continued for several minutes until he finally did stop and give me more medication. I had an opening of the wound around my right ear and bleeding. All the Dr did was put a steri-strip on it and told me to keep it dry. Luckily it's healing properly now. I have pain and soreness as well as numbness around both ears. I have to go back in to have my lower eyes done and am literally scared half to death but that is my worse feature, should have done it first I guess. The whole experience has been aweful and I would never recommend it to anyone. Money wasn't an issue...I should have done some homework on this. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of help or you need to talk post procedure. It's been a very lonely, painful and disappointing experience.

Wow! Thanks for your revelation! I just asked for my deposit back today and am waiting for a response. I am going to save a bit more money and use the surgeon that did my tummy tuck. She was awesome and I'm beginning to believe the cliche "you get what you pay for". Hope you heal well and I get my deposit back! Pack Leader

Hi...new to this forum.. I am a bit confused that the dates of posts are not in order I am intersted in lifestyle lift in Fort Lauderdale Area...I know of 2 docs, 1 male, 1 female...would love some input from people who have used them...can you email or message me here to give me details? I am also intersted in the "private office" doc who does a similar procedure or other info people have about local doctors. My problem is the neck, slack muscles...a little jowls, but mostly soft under the neck, my skin is great, it is the muscle underneath. This, for me, is really heriditary. My mother and grandmother both had this sort of mushy jaw/neck problem. Cam you email me through the site?? I understand that we can not name docs on this site. I would appreciate any and all feedback, positive or negative. Thanks

I am having my life style lift 2/17/10, by Dr mucci in fort lauderdale, he is dong my upper eye lids and the neck and face, i will be taking darvocet and percocet for the pain because i suffer from fibromyalgia and i already have those meds at hand, plus i read that vicodin makes u vomit, i cant imagine someone just taking Tylenol after that surgery. Dr Mucci seems to be vary competent and experienced but you never know what can go wrong, i just hope i am not disfigured or something terrible like that, but trusting in Jehovah God i know everything will work out
