“Atlanta lifestyle lift did a procedure without discussing it with me and destroyed my face.”
Lifestyle lift: NOT worth it
Pain: Severe
i had the same procedure done 7 years ago and 7 days downtime. i am approaching 7 weeks and scars, knots size of my thumb under skin and sagging eye lids and hollow cheeks! why did they do this to me???
i have already spoken to 2 doctors that claim they cannot get my face to look the way it did. i only wanted to tighten the skin and undereye surgery. it is approaching 7 weeks and the corporate office called me and stated my procedure was a success. she doesn't have to walk around looking like a cartoon character!!!
i have taken pictures weekly of my procedure and it doesn't get better. it is wrong to tell clients one thing and do another on the face. my lift was done by {doctor information appears above the review - you must be signed in to view}. he was very angry and hateful when i stated i was unsatisfied. he called me a name and told me to get out of his office. one staff member has been most kind in their office but i think her hands are tied. when you do the surgery there, they refuse to refund so you can have reconstruction.
i was happy with my face. they are treating me horrible because i have complained. i was called unstable because i asked him why he did this procedure without first discussing it with me. i had already written him a thank you letter on the 2nd day and then i found myself using q tips to hold in the eye area. worst of all, they claim it is a success. we can only place our pictures on the web if they refuse to correct these procedures with another doctor.

To Georgia on my Mind- Your story sounds alot like mine. Tell me they will cut in a small area& almost hack my ear off& sew it to my face. I look no different at all, except now I have a scar thats square in shape with dark bumps protruding which are stitches I never knew about!! There is more to my story & if you need to talk, click on my username link to speak personally w/o being called a liar by the above person who also called a dr that posted trying to advise us a Quack. In fact she/he typed Quack almost a page long..

WHY DON'T ALL TE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN HACKED UP BY BAD LIFESTYLE LIFT DOCTORS GET TOGETHER AND START A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT. EVEN IF YOU DON'T GET MONETARY GAIN, AT LEAST IT MIGHT STOP THEM FROM TRUELY BLAENT FALSE ADVERTISING AND MAYBE EVEN PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS. I HAD MINE DONE LUCKILY BY ONE OF THEIR BETTER DOCTORS AND I LOOK BETTER THAN BEFORE BUT,,,, I HAVE A FEW ISSUES I WAS NOT HAPPY WITH. STILL AFTER READING SOME OF THESE HORROR STORIES, I FEEL LUCKY MINE CAME OUT AS GOOD AS IT DID. I WILL NOT GO BACK FOR MY 3 MONTH AFTER CHECKUP BECAUSE I WOULDNT EVER LET LSL TOUCH ME AGAIN.

Dear Georgia OMM, Do you want to chance that? You have to do what you think is right for you but I know what he did to my face and he never called me but he did tell me to grow up. I don't know if I would put myself in this position. You are giving him power over you if you go back to him. Take pictures yourself so you have documentation. Maybe since the TV46 story has run he has more to loose than before. Just think about it before you leap. I mean you already have the scars of one mishap, do you really want a 2nd opinion from him? Best, Chrystal

I had my LSL done at the office in Orange County California. The doc was an arrogant Asian kid who talked to me as if I was a tremendous bother. Likewise, he rolled late in for my surgery appointment. At my two-week follow-up, I wasn't permitted to see that doc. Only a surgical tech was available to to a sloppy job of removing my sutchers. It's been a year-and-a-half since my surgery, and I still have been having big weeping sores where the sutures were left in (as they are working their way to the surface and getting infected). No one at LSL will communicate with me. The lesson here...if you get cosmetic surgery at a factory like LSL, you'll get no warranty. This enterprise should be investigated by the Feds.

Michelle: All of us that I know, had their sutures removed by a tech& didn't get to see the dr. afterwards. Thats the bad thing, no surgical record on us, no follow-up appt... Please email me under BITS, my username or public name here. I am one of many girls having problems & have some tips for you, before it's too late.
