First I have to point out that I have had an awful experiences at multiple plastic surgeons offices in Beverly Hills. It's not only that I've been going through a failed procedures over and over because I've seen dishonesty as well. Hollywood is a jungle so I've been wondering where I can find honest, down to earth and critical perfectionist who takes the time to analyze my expectations. Based on my history, I wasn't in the happy camp when I went to see Dr Svehlak February 2011. I was critical in every possible way but - hands down - he gave me The Best Consultation what I ever received in my entire 50' life. I was thinking: "Oh, boy... Dr Svehlak really knows what he's doing but even so, I was skeptical. I've had multiple consultation with charismatic plastic surgeons and even they sounds extremely professional, it doesn't prove anything. I learned soon that Dr Svehlak has a great portfolio so his excellent work spoke strongly for him and top of that I truly like him. He is warm, smart and confident person and the most important; he made me feel safe.

I followed my gut feeling, booked a surgery and wow... what a pleasant experience. Dr Svehlak fixed my unbalance face with a light minilift and - honestly - he gave me an amazing result. He performed a ear reduction as well and outcome is beyond expectation. I never thought that after all damages by other doctors I can pull my hair back with confidence. He also performed a Lift Lip ($2750) and I absolutely love the result. I was blessed to find the most best surgeon in Hollywood so I highly recommend Dr Steven Svehlak.

Hi snow, 

Sometimes we have to follow our gut no matter how scary it is. I'm glad you did and everything turned out so well. We'd love to see pictures. 

Thanks for the review,

Did you have any other procedures done to your lips; corner lip lift or v-y plasty for lower lip? Thanks, Robin **********@aol.com

Can I ask you what exactly is a V-Y pasty for the lower lip?

Wow, congratulations you look great. You scar is barely noticeable already. Someone on this board recommended a site that shows a photo of a patient who had a similar incision placement as yours. While it is a nice photo, it appears that the scar healed thicker than yours and is therefore more noticeable. Everyone heals differently. Did you do anything special in prep for surgery to help with swelling and healing? Thanks for sharing with us.

I did absolutely nothing and procedure was easy. I guess I got a great "lift" because distance between my nose and lips were long enough. Incision was thin and it faded amazingly fast so it's barely there:)

I had a lip lift 3 weeks ago and my scar is barely noticeable, but I still have swelling in the insicion and numbness over the scar are you experiencing this too?
September 19, 2011
Thanks:)
September 19, 2011
I guess everyone's healing a different way and numbness is part of the healing process. It's go away after 2-4 months...

Thank you, Paris. Dr Svehlak is really good surgeon and top of that he is kind and humble. It's rare combination in Hollywood:)

snowprincess,
Could you explain, what has been done with your upper lip: is just the skin has been shorted or surgeon worked on the muscles too?
October 7, 2011

Hi Paris. Dr Svehlak cut off the skin and part of the muscles as well. That's the reason of numbness and remember, you have no same upper lip movement right after surgery. Anyhow it's a temporary loss because healing process is fast. Few months later you don't even remember surgery was done. I guess surgeon has to go deep enough for a permanent Lip Lift result.

it never said who to email in your post, I would definitely like some more information please. I have been looking endlessly for the right surgeon in the NY/Long Island Area to perform a lip lift on me and I'd like to know more information on how to achieve the best results:)

Hi! Looks amazing! Quick question though: I have read that with these lifts people can sometimes have " open mouth" all the time. As in you can't fully close mouth when it's just naturally closed. Do you have a gap?
