What's Your Professional Opinion on Lifestyle Lift?

I am reconsidering my Lifestyle Lift procedure due to so many unsatisfactory reviews. There are many satisfied customers also. I am concerned.

In your professional opinion, does the Lifestyle Lift procedure produce overall good and lasting results or would you recommend another procedure for about the same cost? It could be a little more.

My procedure (should I decide to proceed) will cost $7,100.00. It includes the Lifestyle Lift (lower face and neck), and my lower and upper eyes.

I am a youthful looking 65 year old in excellent health. I have hopes of making myself more marketable in the work force and so my hopes are to make myself look better, not necessarily younger.

My opinion of lifestyle lift

Not a very favorable opinion I'm afraid. I went so far as making a video of my appearance on "Beauty bites" If you watch it a picture is worth a thousand words. see video

No one really knows what Lifestyle Lift is

What you have to understand is that these are marketing terms, and not defined surgical procedures. The lifestyle lift is performed by different surgeons in different locations and as far as I know there is no textbook that defines the procedure.

This may explain the low (60%)satisfaction rates reported in the "Was it... more

Lifestyle Lift is Just a Marketing Company

Lifestyle Lift: It's just a marketing entity. Lifestyle Lift can be equated to an "Ask Gary" in legal terms, or an "1-800-Dentist." Lifestyle Lift is hard for a patient/ consumer to avoid, because they come into a market and spend upwards of $100,000 a month on advertising. Their marketing is compelling, offering a "breakthrough" 1-hour procedure, showing dramatic results. The results they show are quite good, but most (on the website) are from procedures... more

I personally would never do it

Life style lift is just a nationally marketed mini facelift technique sold to doctors who usually are non-plastic surgeons who want to get a foothold in the competitve market of aesthetic surgery of the face. Look at the very significant number of unhappy patient reviews across the internet and on this site and that should tell you everything! A properly performed cheek and neck lift (aka facelift) done by an excellent plastic surgeon is what you should have done. It may cost a little... more

Lifestyle Lift Opinions

Lifestyle Lift is a trademark. Essentially it is a lower 1/3rd facelift addressing jowling and platysmal banding in the neck. One of the main drawback to a Lifestyle Lift is that it follows a cookie cutter corporate model. Everybody gets the same surgery. The surgeons have very little flexibility what type of procedure they can offer. Another drawback is that there is very little actual interaction with the surgeon. This is one of the most likely reasons for the low ratings that the... more

Lifestyle lift

A lifestyle lift is a modified limited scar facelift often done by doctors that are not plastic surgeons. I would recommend a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon first.
