Sounded Like Great Way to Get Rid of Turkey Neck and Lines Around my Mouth but Don't Do It! - Troy, MI

Lori_S...I am watching the infomercial right now and was considering having it done. I came online to look for reviews from everyday people, not paid testimonials like they have on the infomercial. After reading your post and seeing your photos...there is no way I would do this! I think you should call a lawyer and see if you can get any sort of reimbursement for what you paid to have this done! The fact that the doctor is obviously avoiding you shows that he/she knows something went wrong. I feel so badly for you ;( I hope things improve for you. You really did look fine in your before picture but we all have things which make us a bit self conscious...please do not feel like it was anything to do with vanity as you stated. Im sure every woman who reads your story understands exactly where you are coming from. The best of luck, I hope you continue to heal and feel better. ps on the infomercial they are saying how you can see the results instantly and how their doctors are chosen due to their top notch skill etc.. I wish I could interrupt the infomercial and put your posting up. Thanks for sharing and God Bless!

Revenge is the least you deserve :) and I am glad that your story is available for women like me to see and read about. It is a good reminder that there is always a chance that something could go wrong and that some doctors will do anything for money. Giving you an unnecessary surgery simply to make money is shameful. An honest physician would have leveled with you that you really did not need the surgery at this point (which seems to be the opinion of the majority of viewers, including other doctors who have read this). I'm glad I could help in some small way by making you feel better that your posting changed my mind about doing the procedure. Take Care Lori :)

Wow! From the infomercials, I thought there was new technology which allowed the "back to work in a week" - I guess one of the previous commentors was correct. It seems to be a repackaging of current procedures.

Just another "me too" from a 61-year old male with the turkey neck gravity thing that I thought I might try to eliminate with LSL. Not now!! I never buy anything as a result of something I see on TV, but as an aging widower I feel less attractive over time and these commercials certainly sound appealing. Thank you so very much for sharing your experience and illuminating the significant risks involved; risks that LSL minimizes, but which are very, very real!

Hi, first of all, I am so sorry for what you have gone through.

That being said, you indicated you had "other surgeries and had permanent numbness from them and think that this will be the same". Why on EARTH would you have more surgery if you had such a bad experience before the Lifesyle Lift? And as far as the laser procedure, why AGAIN would you let them do another procedure on you like a laser???

Look people, you can't believe what is told to you. Do your research and don't let ANYONE TOUCH YOUR FACE unless you trust them totally. Especially if they are going to cut into it.

I have had a lot of procedures done, Botox, fillers, all kinds of lasers and I only let one nurse do it, I totally trust her. I have left numerous reviews of those procedures here. If and when (there will be a when) I decide to do something invasive, I will only let one plastic surgeon do it. If you guys want to know who that is, e-mail me. I live in Massachusetts.

Your story is so sad, I was planning on having a face,brow and neck lift with them. I was scheduled to have it done next week, and something in side me told me to go else where. So I saw another Dr today and he told me about this sight. I'm flabergasted on all the horror stories I'm reading. Your very brave to post yourself and I want to say thank you. Your in my prayers, and I hope your healing continues.

A friend of mine that I see on the bus everyday to work had her neck, eyes and cheeks done. SHE LOOKS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS !!!! I guess it depends on who and where you go to get your procedure done. When I decide to go, I'm not only getting the location of her procedure, but the name of the doctor as well. One has to do a little pre-investigation before jumping in head first.

I worked for Lifestyle lift for a week. In that week, I realized what a horrible business this was. They are not sanitary and in reality, their procedures are bull. These procedures should be done under general anasthesia to avoid any mishaps. Even one of the surgeons hired by this company said so while I was watching him do an eyelid surgery. For example, if u r slightly awake u run the risk of moving ur face, if ur eyes are being worked on,or any part of ur face for that matter, that means u run the chance of getting burned or cut incorrectly. I would not recommend this to anyone. I worked in the Tampa, FL office, and not only is this company full of bull, but they arent nice and I witnessed many times during that one week how they would discard the patients once they had their procedures. There was actually a lady who looked horrendous outside the office one day protesting because of what was done to her face. She had a huge ball next to her ear that looked like a tumor and her incision looked like a sigsaw puzzle. Dont do it, spend the extra money and go c a plastic surgeon that specializes on the face. If u can not afford it, then stay the way u r. It isnt worth the risk. Needless to say, I quit!

I am a surgical nurse and you didnt have a lifestyle lift-you have a full major face lift with blephroplasty and a chemical peel. Looks like you didnt pick a good plastic surgeon because the "dogears" at your outer eyes are a sign of terrible work. I wouldnt accept what that surgeon did. What did you sign the consent for?

i dont understand, the lifestyle commercial says it takes and hour. there is no way they could have done your procedure in an hour. Are you sure what you consented for? Im trying to help-Im a nurse. Thanks!
