The general techniques of how a LL are perfomed are kept secret and therefore correction is difficult if the details of the procedure are unknown. Your best bet is to contact the physician who performed the procedure and direct the questions to him or her.
Recourse for Lifestyle Lift complications?
Is there honestly any hope that the discomfort, lumps,and ridges that I still have almost 4 months after a Lifestyle Lift will resolve? If not, what recourse do I have?

the answer by the above doctor is not quite correct,,the Lifestyle lift is a SMAS plication ( folding with a suture) which is not new or developed as they say by Kent, he just coined the Lifestyle lift name,,,any plastic surgeon who has wound care training,access to lasers which can deal with scars etc can handle the problem the only thing is the cost could be high

Do they have time to go deep w/ an hour procedure? Do you see many of these injuries or more bad scarring?
