Acculift and Lifestyle Lift

The is a LARGE difference. The Acculift is ONLY a laser tightening done under topical local or local injections. There is NO skin removal, tightening is minimal at best, length of longevity is a year to 2. Vs the LSL, is a mini facelift with skin excision. Other names are the Quick Lift, Mini Face Lift, 1-Stitch Face Lift, S-Lift, Q-Lift, etc. It can be done under local or local deep sedation or light general.

Acculift and Lifestyle Lift

Acculift and Lifestyle Lift

An Acculift is a laser lipolysis based procedure where one passes the fiber under the skin to achieve fat melting and skin tightening. The Accusculpt device is made by a company called Lutronic. I have personal experience with this device, as well as the Lifestyle Lift. Here are my thoughts: The idea of laser lipo lifting without incisions and muscle suturing can be very effective in reversing certain signs of aging. In my experience, younger patients with less jowling and neck banding... more
