Being in the entertainment industry, as a ballroom dancer, I wanted to "refresh" my look. Thought that lifestyle lift would do the trick. I look exactly the same, went through hell, and still have numbness behind my ears. It's been over a year. The recovery could not have been worse than a full face lift, my ears stick out, the procecure was similiar to a cattle call. Office was overbooked and my surgery was delayed by hours. Recovery was only explained to me after the surgery. Several of the downsides were never brought up during the initial consultations. When you see those women on the ads,,,,rest assured,,,,they had more done than just a lifestyle lift. More deception. Waste of time,,,waste of money and permanently caused numbness in my ears and ears that now stick out more than they ever did.....BAD BAD BAD IDEA,,,,don't believe ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU IN CONSULTATION. THESE ARE GIRLS WITH NO OTHER BACKGROUND OR EDUCATION, NEVER HAD A FACE LIFT,,,GET PAID BY NUMBERS OF PEOPLE THEY CAN HOOK INTO THIS SHAM. DON'T LISTEN IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO,,,BUT BELIEVE ME,,,IT'S AN HONEST WARNING AND HOPEFULLY A HELPFUL ONE...TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.

I just had my Lifestyle Lift done 6 days ago and yes it does hurts during the healing process, but what I can see so far thru the swelling and stuff is gonna be great. My mom 77yrs. old and I 54yrs. old had the procedure both done the same day and the actual experience was less painful than I expected. The staff at the Santa Ana office in California were VERY professional and checked on my mother and myself often to make sure we were comfortable .We get our stiches removed day after tomarrow and I am still swollen and numb which I believe is normal after just having lipo on your neck and face and a facelift! Ladies no pain no gain... yes it hurts during recovery but you cleanse properly as instructed and take your medications and that's it...it is surgery so get real ok?! Doing your RESEARCH is the most important thing...when I first heard about Lifestyle Lift before I even mentioned it to my mom, I went on the site of the office that I was interested in going to...checked out each Dr. availible at that facility and their individual credentuals and when I picked the doctor I liked best, I did a back ground check on him with the Dept. of consumer affairs or you can find other sites on the internet for checking out doctors and see if they have had or do have any pending litigations against them. This was MY FACE! So don't be lazy, if YOU allow someone to work on you that is not qualified and you did not check out,then don't complain about the results ...good luck because all I can say...having already done it...I have no complaints so far. Good luck ladies
