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
