“Love the look!”
Lifestyle lift: Worth it
Pain: Mild
I had the lower face lifestyle lift, neck liposuction, and upper eyelid lift. The surgery, while awake and alert, was a breeze. The first 2 weeks of recovery was pretty rough with the swelling and some bruising. After that, recovery wasn't too bad. I went back to work after 2 1/2 weeks from the day of surgery. I work with doctors and nurses. Only one nurse asked if I had had a face lift. She's one of my close friends. She should have noticed. The others asked if I had lost weight, changed my hair, etc. The all said I looked great! My husband said I look like I did 15 years ago. It's all been worth it. I'm 5 weeks out now and there is a little redness on the where the scars are, but they are fading since I started using the Mederma.

How did your lower facelift come out. I hope you are ok. Am thinking about the Lsl but without the eyelift. Can u tell me if your jaw line looks alot better and is the bruising by your eyes or lower face? Many thanks for your input and good, good luck to you on your procedure

This is to the woman who had the lifestyle lift with upper eyelid surgery. I'm scheduled to have this done in less than 2 weeks and feeling quite apprehensive & nervous. Can you please give me more info on your procedure particularly the eye portion? Also, do you have any pictures (before & after) Thank you....Susan

Hi, Jill-I loved your letter and your experience. I am trying to narrow down to the best doctor(s) that do lifestyle lift. Can you please tell me the name of your doctor? Thanks, Linda (purdyme2)
