I was concerned about gravity taking effect prematurely in my face - looking tired all the time was not equal to how I felt. I can't change the genetic elements of my appearance, but Dr. Macdonald had a solution that was not a full facelift, but effectively addressed lifting the areas that mattered without looking like I had work done! In essence, his "you, only better" statement is very true in my case. I truly love the look 4 years later!

I also upkeep my peel appointments to further maintain better skin tone and younger appearance. Recommended!

Thanks for writing your experience, SFyounger. What areas does Dr. M's mini lift address? Does it do the whole face, just in a less invasive way?

Hi SF Younger,
I'm needing a slight lift similar to you , I have some laugh lines (nasolabial folds and with onset of jowls, but I have no other wrinkles to speak of ...anyhow I think I would go your route.. and the cost seems reasonable . :) My question is what is the doctor referring to when he is going to " lift the areas that mattered?" Are you still happy with the results? If you had to do it again would you change anything? I'm just doing so research and gathering info, before I have a procedure. Thanks
