“3 Hour Procedure Filled with Pain, Poor Results, Rope Like Scars, Lasting Pain - Reston, VA”
Spent: $5,600 in Reston, Va
1 hour procedure took over 3 hours
filled with pain and lack of sedation
1 day recovery took weeks (in bed for 1 week, couldn't go out in public for over 3 weeks, and then required 'camoflage' to go out in public
Visible results - lopsided ears and jawline, swollen rope like scars around the ears, no improvement in appearance
Added bonus: shooting burning pain around my ears and across my cheeks, especially using the phone or sleeping on my side at night - OVER A YEAR LATER
Their solution:
Go to the doctor's 'private practice' and pay him $9500 to fix it.

Is it true that there is a class action suit against Lifestyle Lift?
If so, how can I find out more about it?
Updated on 8 Jan 2011:
Still have lumpy scars, lopsided face, shooting pains, trouble using the phone, sleeping on my side or wearing my glasses for more than a short period of time.
LSL is a pain filled, horrifying procedure done like you are in a 'jiffy lube', but 'Jiffy Lube' treats their customers far better. I have only been allowed to see the doctor one more time, and that is when I got the almost $10K offer that he could 'fix it' at his private practice (not at LSL).
Please, save your face, save your money, save your time, see a board certified plastic surgeon, in a real medical office, and not someone doing extensive and invavsive surgery in a dentist's chair in an office building. (non medical office building, no hospital facilities, no monitoring equipment, no medical staff on standby).

Another year later - UPDATE
Still lumps behind the ears, bumps in front of the ears, and 'fishing line' popping out here and there from under the skin.
Still burning pain around the ears.
My friend had a 'real' face lift last December, at a REAL board certified Plastic Surgeon, she looks great and does NOT have any of the horrible memories from her procedure and no painful after effects.
Her worst side effect, a little skin numbness on one side that went away in less than 2 months. She paid $10k, spent the night in the hospital and had regular follow up visits afterwards - all in the $10K price. AND she always saw the doctor, not an assistant, or sales rep.

My rating:
3 hour pain filled procedure, 1 valium for 'sedation' - DID NOT WORK!, very poor results, lasting pain and rope like scars, Good luck seeing the Doctor for follow up -getting any follow up is next to impossible.
