S. Allan Kane, MD (retired)

I'm 5.5 & weigh 134lbs I went with smooth silicone gel, mid range moderate profile 397cc! I was going for a more natural look then an obvious look. I did not want high profile or anything to huge! I just got out of surgery this morning and I feel amazing honestly no pain just tolerable pressure! I am taking my vicodins 300mg every 3 hours so I'm sure that's what's helping me as well. I'm wrapped up like a mummy can't wait for the final results! So far they look amazing as to what I can see & im happy! I started of with absolutely nothing I want even sure of my size but I know I was a beginning A. I never cared for bras because my breast were so small I felt they never went with my body I always would wear padded bras if anything. I've heard so many things about this procedure but all I can say is I'm thankful to have a successful outcome I feel great ! My pain level is a 2 from 1-10 and that's mainly just pressure I feel on my chest, I can walk I can eat I can lay up straight fine. Don't be scared like I was from reading many reviews this was probably one of the best decisions I've made for myself ladies! I wouldn't change a thing

I feel this was such a huge and wonderful investment in myself. I am a hard working single mother who still felt energetic and full of life but did not look like I did. Now I am happy, confident and ready for the next challenge! My whole outlook changed, a woman who feels confident with her looks seems to accomplish more in her life. She also feel more in control of her life. Give yourself the permission to do something positive and good for yourself! Get the Lifestyle lift!

I live in Arizona, but had the procedure done in California. The staff was excellent, the doctor was great. He sat and discussed all facets of the procedure before anything was done. Even after being sent home, the staff called almost everyday to check on my progress and see if I was feeling alright.

Very nice staff and Dr.Kane was exceptional...I like to simplify my life and Dr. Kane did just that. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way I look now. I would recommend this procedure to anyone that is looking for the fresh look..:) Sincerely Joyce Angove

So I have been requested to comment on the lifestyle lift I had done last July 2011. Well it was a good experience. I would definitely do it again. However, I did not get any other opinions nor did I price the procedure. I had wanted to do something with my double chin for years and had seen many TV ads on the LifeStyle Lift. I was due back to work in early August so I schduled a consultation with an RN and also the doctor. The doctor had over 20 years experience and excellent credentials.

The procedure was not completely explained to me. I was surprised with the amount of work that was done. My ears were cut almost all the way around. I had an incision under my chin. Along with a few small incisions below my temples and the the back of my neck. My skin was pulled and removed. The neck muscle was tightened with stickes and fat was lipod out. The healing process was fast. I returned to work in 10 days but I could only eat soup for about a week. The skin is pulled very tight so you can't fully open your month for awhile. I lost about 8 lbs and have kept it off. There was some unexpected discomfort in my inner ears. I think some fluid from the procedure got in but it eventually dried up.

You really need someone to take care of you for a few days after the procedure. When I returned to work most people thought I had lost weight from my face. I have not told anyone that I had a facelift. I think it took 10 years off my face. One disappointment is that once all the swelling resolved the labial folds (lines around my mouth) returned. But most other wrinkles disappeared. I have tried fillers on those lines but that did not help either.

I had a breast augmentation here with Dr. Kane. After surgery I noticed that one of my nipples pointed down instead of straight like the other. I brought this up to Dr. Kane after a week after surgery and was told that the implants would be moving in the next few months, so just wait a little bit. After 3 months, I came back for my check up (with the other doctor as Dr. Kane was out that day), I brought up the same issue, that the left breast sat higher than the right and the nipple pointed down. I was told to remember that my breast are "sisters, not twins".

After that I tried to ignore it, but after not 1, but 2 OBGYN's commented on my mis-matched breast implants, it lead me to come back 2 years later to ask them to redo the left breast. I was then told by Dr. Kane that it "looked like the left breast implant had turned sideways and that's why it appeared to sit differently." I informed him that I had brought this problem up immediately after my surgery and asked if he could fix it. He told me it would be an easy fix....but then I got the quote.... Pretty much half the cost of my original augmentation.

I personally think Dr. Kane did a great job on my right breast, but I don't believe that I should be charged this much for him to fix his mistake with the left breast. After all, the problem occurred immediately after surgery, suggesting that it was not something that changed or occurred due to my error. Also, I would not be paying for a new implant for that breast, just for its positioning to be corrected. Because of this I cannot give this clinic or Doctor the full 5 stars, as much as I would like to.

I was undecided about having this done but i'm 67 and my boy friend is my age and looks at least ten years younger than me . I was baggy enough that the neighbors thought I was his mother . I was embarrassed that I looked like that next to him . I even dyed my hair once didn't work . I had the procedure done and am not very happy about it . wish I had checked into it more now i'm stuck with It. one side of my face is smooth when I smile but the other side is full of wrinkles and looks a little loose and the groove beside my nose is deeper than the one on my right side . the doctor told me that my skin is not as elastic at my age as it was when I was young . I don't buy that . that side of my face had a lot more stitches too . for the price my face should have looked the same on both sides . now when I have pictures taken one side is going to be smooth and the other is gonna have wrinkles . don't know how to add photos other wise I would .

I had LSL and was scarred in front of my right ear, the suture did not even follow the ear as I was told it would. The fleah behind my ear was sewed to the cup of my ear and is painful and draining 8 weeks post op. When I tried to get LSL Corporate to do something they basically told me too bad so sad. I signed the consent, so what did I want them to do?


I wouls trongly say to everyone out there. I am a nurse for 28 years, and there is NO POST OP CARE. And without that the process can go wrong. I did not even get to see the surgeon for 7 weeks then when I complained he walked out of the room and I was left alone to see my self out. This is not good medicine.
