Question
Houston lifestyle lift feedback
I am 68 and uhhappy about my turkey neck apperance. Is there any one in the Houston area that has had an experience having this problem solved, what doctor and what procedure. I don't know if I shoud try the new Lifestyle Lift or go the conventional plastic surgery route. Any help to make up my mind will be greatly appreciated.

I'm 54 and very much in need of a lift in the chin and neck area. I want to hear from anyone who's had the LSL, and whether the results of the procedure have lasted for, say, a year. Also, I'd very much like to hear from anyone with any problems with the procedure.

had lifestyle lift 3 weeks ago - don't know if i would do it again - still having trouble with vision - blurry - still red eyes - results look ok so far - neck still swollen and very annoying - did not have that much work done but after this time i am glad i did not have a job to go back to - this is not a weekend procedure - also without being put out it was awful - you don't feel it but you know it is happening and you are panicing-

I cancelled my appt with the Dr. in Houston, TX and they are REFUSING to refund my deposit of $380.00 and I never even talked to or met the Doctor. They said if you change your mind after 7 days...too bad. I have reported the Life Style Lift company to the BBB in Texas and Michigan(home office). I changed my mind due to mentally I did not think I was up for this being my only child/son just spend 12 months in Iraq and deploying again in Aug 07. So, if you are not sure you want this done, DON'T GIVE THEM ANY MONEY.. they will tell you...well it will guarantee the sale price...which btw has been the same for 1 1/2 years.

I had the LSL two weeks ago by Dr.Kevin Smith. It was a little scary being awake while they did the surgery. They run you through a little fast--felt like a cattle car. That being said, my results are amazing. I was able to go to work 6 days after I had the procedure. The swelling was mostly gone--only my close women friends noticed. If you do exactly as thry say, the results are there--I had very little brusing and little swelling.

I'm 69 and wanted the LSL to smooth a few wrinkles out and get rid of the turkey neck. After speaking with more than one of Dr. Palmers patients I was truly excited and not the least apprehensive, he's well thought of and very talented. He is a very plain spoken man (some think rude)- however I prefer someone that knows his business and is sure enough of himself and doesn't pussyfoot around. My bad news is that I have heart stents and since they use epenehrine along with the local anesthetic I not a good candidate. I am very grateful (altho disappointed) that he wouldn't do the surgery but he did recommend someone to me that uses something different and in a controlled environment - this is for MY safety and and I appreciate his being so honest, brutal or not. ha The man knows his business and does beautiful work, go for it!

I am just wondering what kind of scaring you have with the LSL. I wear my hair short and my ears show. Do the scars go away and how long did it take. I live about 4 hours from houston and thats where I plan to go to have my LSL. I really would like to know how soon I can travel back home. I also want to know how long LSL will last. And talk to someone who had it done say more than a year or so ago.

HAD MY LSL IN HOUSTON 2 YEARS AGO. HATED DR PARKER. VERY UNFRIENDLY,COLD. RECOVERY TIME A WOULD ESTIMATE 1WEEK BEFORE SOMEONE COULD TELL. YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR ERS ARE SEWN ON CROOKED POST-OP AND THE POSTOP FOLLOW UP IS NON-EXISTENT. NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AFTER MY STITCHES CAME OUT. RESULTS WERE GOOD,BUT I WAS NOT VERY WRINKLED,JUST BEGINNING JOWLES. WISH THE DR WAS MORE INVOLVED AND THE DR GAVE ME AN ANTIBIOTIC I TRIED TO GET HIN TO CHANGE IT TO ONE I WAS FAMILIAR WITH. HE WOULN'T BUDGE. I ENDED UP WITH ANTIBIOTIC-INDUCED ULERATIVE COLITIS. IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A WEEK. BAD DEAL.

MSLIV, did you make any decisions about a Houston Doc? I'm impressed with Michael Siegel, M.D. I need a neck lift and he does an "executive facelift" for $5K in the office. His before after pics look good. Any one out there had this proceedure done with Dr. Siegel?

I am seriously thinking of having this proceedure done in the Denver office. Who has had experience with that particular office and their doctors. Please be honest in your recommendations. The above inputs are very confusing and I am concerned about the doctors in Denver LSL unit. Thanks, BJ
