I had it done in Albuquerque. My Dr. has been doing plastic surgery for years.
It is NOT an hour procedure and you are NOT ready to go to work in a week! It is very extensive SURGERY and you will need AT LEAST two weeks before you go back to work. I wore a shorter wig to work to hide my scars, and I looked fine. I look about 15 years younger than my age.
I would highly recommend this procedure to anyone...

If anyone has had bad surgery and has written about it on this site, keep in mind it is not the fault of the Lifestyle Lift but the fault of a bad doctor. All one has to do is look at celebrity websites to see some major botched up faces by some of the most expensive plastic surgeons in the world. I will post photos here; the first, my original neck and jowels, which weren't awful but I wanted to have something done before I got really bad. The second photo with my long straight hair and white tank top, I took of myself at ten days post op; I put concealer on to hide the bruises around my mouth, but you can see my neck starting to get yellow from the black and blue healing. The third one was eleven days post op, with my shorter wig, to hide my scars. The fourth was in England, 24 days post op, wearing a long wig to hide my scars. The doctor also did a little lipo under my chin. I'm very pleased! P.S. I am 56 years old! ---- Update 1-1/2 yrs post op: I will be 58 yrs old next month, and I look 40. I am still thrilled with my results. I have been reading some of the doctors' comments on these pages, and shame on them. They are giving false information, because they realize that the LS Lift has been taking the country by storm, and they are losing business. So they have sour grapes. Some of the misinformation they are giving, is that the LS Lift is not performed by 'real' plastic surgeons. That is a lie. All LS Lift doctors are board-certified plastic surgeons, and many had their own practices before joing the LS Lift team. Also, they said it only last 2 yrs or so, and that is another lie. The LS Lift, depending on genetics and other factors in a person's lifestyle, lasts fron 8 to ten years. Again, shame on all these plastic surgeons, who are posting misinformation to scare people. I would do it again, and I would not give my money to these expensive plastic surgeons who would post such misleading comments on this site. P.S. I do NOT work for the Lifestyle Lift.

could you please post before and after pics
Could you please tell us who it was you were threatening, the consultant or the surgeon? Was this threat issued during the free consultation, or when you were speaking with your surgeon prior to the surgery?

But I still say you need to move on, hate and bitterness can consumer you and destroy your life. Sue them if you feel the need but please for yourself backup a bit and let go of the hate. I shall pray for you, and I do wish you all the best.
I also did my research before. Heard all negative and the positive and made my decision. The pain was minor. I only took 4 pain pills the day of the surgery and the day after I took 2 pills. After that I would take tylenol if I needed something. I'm sorry that you are disappointed with your outcome. Perhaps your expectations were too high, that can happen with plastic surgery. And if your left with scars it is because you either removed the scabs or didn't follow the instructions 100 percent. I'm sure they told you all the negative that could happen, they did me, and you must have thought it worth the risk or you wouldn't have done it. I wish you all the best. It might help you if you were to move out the negative and into the positive aspects of your life, you'll be much happier. I wish you all the best.
Well today is the 3rd week since I had my surgery and I love it. I was back to work in less than a week. Yes I still had some swelling and just a little brusing but all is going real good. Today I still have a bit of numbness in front of the ears and a few stitches left but all that is to be expected. I'm 66, well will be 67 in April and had quite a bit of wrinkles especially around the mouth from 53 years of smoking, sure glad I quit that 2 years ago. Anyway the doctor did a wonderful job on me. I look every natural, still having a few minor wrinkles, told him I didn't want to look plastic or too much younger (fake like) and he did a perfect job on me. I had doctor Swerdloff.
Hope everyone has a great day

I truely believe that the doctors are at fault, when the procedure goes sour. What I also think is that the advetizements about the Life Style Lift are very
misleading. It specifies that it is NOT a surgery and only takes one hour. I had this procedure done several years ago. At that time it was considered surgery. I was not totally satisfied with the outcome, but the doctor corrected it.
I also noticed that 2 people were unsatisfied with their doctors in Dallas. Maybe they were one and the same.
The weakness is probably because of the surgery itself. Any surgery is a major shock to your body. You may have more strength than the average person, especially if you didn't have weakness after a full facelift. But I would never recommend going to work after five days.
Make sure you see before and after photos of your doctor's surgeries. Then you will know what type of work he does.
I wish you the best!
I also just posted a photo 11 days post op; wearing a shorter wig.
I had to wear a wig after two weeks; the stitching cars around your ears will not go away for awhile. I will post some more photos to show you.
After five days, you will not be able to work, trust me.
Guess I better go buy a wig, I have a real short pixi hair cut now.
Does the dermablend makeup they recommend really work good?
I've been reading another site and it makes it all sound like it all a fraud and there a Doctors on there saying the same stuff. Now I'm confused. They say that the one in tampa is under investigation etc etc. I know that people sew for anything now. What is your insight into all of that? Oh its on RealSelf.com
Also is the weakness from the laser part of the procedures? As I had a full facelift when I was 40 (oh my 26 years ago, lol) and I didn't have an weakness?
I sure do appreciate all you help and information you've been so kind to give to me today.
