How is Lifestyle Lift Different? Oh, about 300,000 ways...
The company behind the Lifestyle Lift infomercials has earned the dubious distinction of likely being the first company in the United States fined for "Astroturfing," or flooding the internet with false positive reviews.
In 2009 Lifestyle Lift was fined $300,000 for Astroturfing. See the New York Attorney General's settlement here: http://www.oag.state.ny.us/media_center/2009/july/july14b_09.html

This is a procedure whose details are very unclear
Yes there technique is so secret they do not want to reveal it.
Therefore, no one knows if it really is better.
How can you compare a procedure when the details are not made known. Other procedures have textbooks or articles printed in which the technical aspects are made clear.
I would suggest that you read more about this procedure.

Difference between a Lifestyle Lift and a traditional facelift
I just wrote an opinion regarding the difference between a Lifestyle Lift and a traditional facelift, which you should be able to find under my profile. I think this is a procedure that "over-promises but under-delivers", while a good facelift should do the opposite.

Difference between Lifestyle Lift and Facelift?
This is a good question and one that floods my telephone lines daily. In my opinion a Llifestyle Lift is a modified limited incision Facelift. However, with that said no one really knows what it is as there are no textbook articles describing the procedure as there are for most traditional procedures. It is often done by non board certified certified Plastic Surgeons and under local anesthesia which allows for it to be done in a non accredited operating facility. Most surgeons including...

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.

LifeStyle vs other facelifts
The LifeStyle Lift is a proprietary heavily branded type of mini lift that has a chain of offices across the United States. It is a mini-lift under my reasoning that it is focused on the lower face, does not require general anesthesia, and has abrevieated incisions in comparison to a traditional facelift. But then again there are lots of mini-lifts that offer similar claims.
The mini-lifts may be tough to choose from because of all the brand names such as LifeStyle Lift, S-Lift, Quick...

What makes the lifestyle lift different than other facelifts
The lifestyle lift is a trademark that refers to a lower third facelift using what is referred to as a SMAS plication or imbrication technique. This is a technique that anchors the muscle in the face in a more elevated fashion. It is designed to address jowling in the cheek and laxity (turkey neck) in the neck. There is nothing new or revolutionary about the procedure.
What's revolutionary about the lifestyle lift is the marketing. Essentially, lifestyle lift is a corporation...
