I debated having Quicklift surgery for over a year, but am glad I chose to have it done. I feel wonderful and my self esteem is greatly improved. I am confident and feel comfortable with the modification the Quicklift provided.
 

Great review?

Scheduled a consultation after seeing a TV commercial. I was apprehensive about the procedure, but was soon put at ease by Dr. Lo’s highly trained professional staff. The surgery was less invasive than I thought it would be and the follow-up less frightening than what I had anticipated. In a very short time, I was feeling much better and was sorry I had waited over a year. Follow-up continues and I will see Dr. Lo and his staff for about a year. My future is bright and I would highly recommend Dr. Lo and his staff to anyone who ever considered feeling more comfortable about themselves. A special thank-you to you, Dr. Lo and to all of your staff. Kathleen K.

Kathleen, Can I ask your age? I've been considering Dr. Lo. He had discouraged me a few years ago when I was about 45 saying I wouldn't see sufficient results and to wait until I had more sagging. I was left with the impression that he's a great dr. but perhaps very conservative and I'm worried he won't do enough lifting because I don't have a lot of excess skin. Seems like some drs prefer to work with older patients for a more dramatic result and less risk of over-pulling. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'm 52 years old. He thought he'd only get it approx 70% corrected & I'd say it was more like 85% plus. He can't pull up too much skin from the chin area because it'd leave sagging or extra skin under the cheek bone area. I'd recommend you go back for another consultation w/ him. Good luck!
