“Swollen eyes”
Lifestyle lift: NOT worth it
Pain: Uncomfortable
Had a good experience with the original app., the woman I talked to was very knowledgable. The Doctor came in the room and explained the procedure, sat me infront of a mirror to show me what to expect from the lift, eye and neck surgery.
The clinic called and gave me a list of things to buy for after care.
Had the procedure done Feburary 10th,2009. The swelling in my eyes continues to be a problem. Three months later I have alot of swelling around my eyes every morning, that gets some what better by noon-2.00. I still have swelling on my cheek bone right under my eyes all the time. The scaring on my chin is all puckered up, and looks awful.
I have been back to the clinic once, and they said to give it more time. My doctor is no longer with LSL, and I wonder why!! I will be returning in the next month or so if things don"t get any better!
I had this done because it was time to do something for myself. I have fixed everything else that I have, and it was time for me to fix me.
I'm sorry that I didn't know about this web site before I did this. If anybody else would have advertized the existance of the care Credit card, I could have gone anyplace!

Thanks Rosabell. I'm trying to do some homework on the doctor. But it is really hard to get any information.

Yea, the one that left or was fired I know of well, unfortunately.Dr J replaced him as the main Dr. A new Dr joined the office, working only a couple times a month & he is probably a Plastic surgeon.His name starts with a K or a C.. He isn't listed on the website yet I was told, so ask for a BIO of him to be sent to your house. I know of a great plastic surgeon that repairs LSL's in that area, so maybe you'd want to consult him before taking on a Dr you know nothing about. Feel free to privately contact me.Just know it's been my experience that there is next to none follow ups after having that procedure done.One question to ask is where Dr J has hospital privelages at. Please call the American Board of Plastic Surgery & the AMA to check out the LSL doctors. I say this only because I CARE. Also call the BBB....

LSL glamourized this Doc by saying he did many publications, presentations,etc. If you look on his Bio, none have to do w/ facial plastic surgery & a few were just support groups. Not very impressive in my book. We are here thinking, according to LSL, he has done publications about facial PS. He hasn't.His real name is Mir Jafer Ali, not Jaffrey..So to check if he is in good standing w/ the medical licensing board, you need a correct name, right? The number for BBB is 312 832-0500.. The medical licensing bereau is IL Dept. Of Financial & Regulation. They keep track of all docs licenses to make sure they are in good standing, not on probation, etc.Click here: State of Illinois - Licensed Physician .Chicago: (312)814-4500 ask for medical licensing& inquire about the DR, disciplinary actions, probation, any lawsuits, etc. They will tell you anything.PLease mention his real name above as is shown on his medical license on the LSL site & also use the name he changed to. Also call the American Board of Plastic Surgery, they are listed as an 800# & also a chgo number. Altho ent's have some basic knowledge of PS in training, it's not like a real plastic surgeon that's trained from the git go on facial P.S. Good Luck
