Unhappy with Lifestyle Lift Results

I Was So Mislead by LSL and Spend my Days Crying over How I Look. I am 47, slight jowls, tear throughs, fat under the chin. I was given an S lift, when they stated that it would simply be two cuts in front of each ear. The laser resurfacing was painful.I also had Botox in the forhead for lines and angry 11 lines. I look HORRIBLE. I am only 10 days post op, However, one eye brow looks like it belongs to Jack Nicholson, the other brow/upper eyelid drooping. One side of the face looks WAY too pulled, tugging the lip and the chin area. visable lumps everywhere.

YOU CANT EVALUATE YOUR RESULTS WITH A FACELIFT IN 10 DAYS

Be patient. No facelift looks good in 10 days. There is still significant swelling and visible scars. See my attached video and write to me in 3 months then if you have criticisms I can help you. see video

I noticed a doc here saying "no facelift looks good after only10 days" I guess I am an anomaly but I looked FANTASTIC after 10 days and as soon as I get the pics on my computer will post.....I am 57 and had the LSL 6mos. ago, I looked 35 for a couple of weeks and by week 5 definately saw things going back to the way they were. Am now 6 mos out and look about the same as when I started......ooooaaaarrrrgggghhhhh
