Very Little Pain

  • posted 4 years ago

Just wanted everyone to know about my experience...

Just wanted everyone to know about my experience with LL.  I had my LL in Atlanta by Dr. F.  There was no pain during the surgery.  I have a very low pain tolerance and was sooo afraid.  The only uncomfortable part was having to wear a bandage over my head and under my neck for 2 weeks to control the swelling.  I'm happy with the results and would do it again but feel their advertising is deceptive.  No one would walk out after the surgery and go to lunch!  They couldn't because their face is too swollen to eat!  Also you're all bandaged up.  And I can't imagine going back to work due to the swelling and wrap.  You will have to take a week off from work due to swelling, possible bruising and having to wear the wrap night and day.  Maybe not all docs have you do this, but they all did in Atlanta as far as I know.   Check out your doctor!  Mine had extensive experience in facial plastic surgery and had written quite a few professional articles on it.  Any questions, just contact me.

Has anyone had the LSL done in Atlanta Ga. By Dr. Franco. I would like to know if they are happy with their results and do they have any visible scar around their ears? -- Editor note: You must be contacted privately to receive the doctor information you have requested.

My comment is for Cathy,I would like to talk with her. I am planning to have the LL done in Dec. 08, by Dr. F. in Atlanta. I am really looking forward to it. My question is are their any visible scars around your ears? And are you still happy with your results?

Sassy Did you have your procedure Dec 8? How do you look, are you happy? I am considering Dr Franco, however, he had an accident an can't operate.
