Not Worth It
Spent: $7,500 in Virginia

I had the Lifestyle lift in July 2008. I was too young to have it done. My face looks the same as it did before, except now I have wonderful scars I have to hide. They said I was a fine candidate. That was a lie. In ten years I probably would be. If you do not have lots of wrinkling and heavy jowels, it is definitely not worth it.
If you have long hair and wear it up or in a pony tail, this isn't for you either. The worst scars and bumps are behind the ear.
It's done now, nothing I can do about it, but learn a hard
lesson. Be happy with who you are and quit trying to be young again.
If you are stubborn and still want this procedure, take a couple real pain pills before the procedure. The little valium they give you is worth squat and it hurts like h e double L.

it sounds like you had the same experience that I had! were you in the reston, va office? like you, I have no noticable difference / improvment in my appearance, except scars that I have to hide and suffered a lot of pain both during the procedure and the WEEKS (not DAYS) of recovery!! and the MONEY!!! MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN! I heard that someone is starting a class action lawsuit. If you hear anything concrete, please post it to the website. thanks JK

I had this done in Reston too and very disappointed; if you hear more from the class action law suit I want to be included too. My face is now lopsided.

Thank you to the brave souls that posted your comments. You have saved me from this experience. I may have lost 400.00 but I will live with my turkey neck.

Months later I still suffer from shooting burning pain around my ears, and the occasional 'fishing line' that pops out of my skin - it hurts. If anyone does start a class action, I am in. This was atrocious, and I feel very decieved by how they presented not only what the experience would be, but what results I could expect.

Thanks for posting after reading these comments I change my mind. I too will continue to live with my turkey neck.
