My surgeon suggested the Ellevate procedure to rectify facelift problems but it doesn’t appear to have made any difference! Help I had a facelift in January 2019 and after a year my jowls and neckline still appeared to be sagging and I had banding from my chin to neck. My surgeon suggested Ellevate which I did in January this year but as far as I can see there is no difference on the before and after photos. Can you please give me your thoughts as I don’t feel that I have had value for money as apart from now having one band instead of two, there is very little difference. I feel this isn’t the end result I was promised.
