Who Should Consider a Lifestyle Lift?

Who should consider Lifestyle Lift? As of today, 73% of Lifestyle Lift patients reporting on this website (199 reviews) are unhappy. If this was the situation in my practice, I would have to close my doors. So my advice to anyone considering this procedure is please do your research. The marketing for Lifestyle Lift is very overblown and does not tell the whole story. Many of the results shown appear to have been multi-hour procedures and are not results that your average Lifestyle... more

In my opinion, no one should consider any variety of amini-lift. If a facelift is indicated, the most important part of the lift is the change of the SMAS, the deep structure of the face.

Overall I think a good candidate for Lifestyle Lift is an individual who is motivated; motivated simply to make a positive difference in their appearance. Through the ravages of time, simply as we get older things change; we don’t look as good and refreshed and youthful as we did in our 20s and early 30s.
