Lifestyle Lift recovery. How fast and normal results?

I had a Lifestyle Lift on July 12. Today, July 18.  I am still experiencing swelling and pain especially on my right ear. The swelling is very hard and is causing me discomfort when sleeping. Is this normal? How long does it really take to recover from the life style lift procedure? Do you have any reviews or comments regarding this procedure?

Hater - This is a pretty big horror story. The procedure isn't faulty, it seems to be the individual who did the procedure. It's been six weeks since the eye lift and LSL - still seeing some swelling and yellow under my eyes, and some numbness under my ears. Nothing painful. Makeup easily covers all scarring, which is not unsightly. Scars are flat and smooth. Still using Vit E oil and Arnica, along with anti-inflammatories to minimize swelling. Husband says I look pretty and all swelling isn't completely down yet. Life is good.

I had the lifestyle lift January of 2008 and this is March 2009 and I still feel tightness. Sometimes very annoying. How do you get this to go away, it has been a year.

DON'T DO IT. It's awful and it simply is not worth the anxiety and discomfort for almost no results.
