“I love it! - Albuquerque, NM”
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 who is considering looking younger and having a fresh new look!

As I mentioned,the price is now higher than what I paid for, a year ago. I had my consultation two years ago, was quoted my price, and that was the price that was locked in, even though I had my surgery a year later, in which time I was able to save up for it.

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.
Congrats on your happy outcome.
Some of the doctors on this site who do not do Lifestyle Lifts have stated it only lasts three years and that is incorrect. My plastic surgeon said it will last ten years.
I highly recommend it!
Hi Rose -- Thanks for the update. Glad to hear you're still happy with your results!
is there a way to find out the doctor's unedited name? very happy your procedure turned out so well.
Yes. Log in to your RealSelf account and the doctor's full name will be shown in a grey box at the bottom of the review.
Hope this helps!

Welcome to RealSelf, Virgo. Here's a list of board-certified doctors in the Tampa area. Many of them have been reviewed by other RealSelf community members, and you can read the reviews on each doc's profile page.
I had the Lifestyle Lift, which is the bottom portion of the face, plus a neck lift, and some lipo under the jawline as well.
Wish you all the best!
A pleasant experience. Will return soon.
A Good bedside manner.

Had another specialist outside the profession complimented the work done :)
I accept your apology.
