I am 44 years old and I am not really wrinkle, but I would like to have my upper lids done so it wouldn't be so noticable. What's the difference between Lifestyle Lift and Refresher Lift? And if I have the Lifestyle or Refrsher lift how long will that last?

Answer: Avoid Branded Procedures My advice is that you see at least three well respected Facial Plastic Surgeons or Plastic Surgeons, evaluate their results, the tone of their offices, the friendliness and professionalism of their staff, and go with your gut feeling. The trend of branding Facelift names is relatively new and confusing for patients. Lifestyle Lift is really more of a marketing company that advertises heavily and hires local surgeons to perform what is really a Facelift with shortcuts under local anesthesia. A Facelift is a wonderful procedure when performed properly, but terribly stigmatic if rushed, or if corners cut.

Answer: Refresher Lift vs mini lifts like lifestyle lifts Neither Refresher Lift nor lifestyle face lift address the upper lids. A standard upper lid procedure or sometimes a brow lift will accomplish this if the upper lids are the issue. When it comes to your face, a Refresher Lift, even though it uses short incisions, is not a mini lift like the lifestyle mini lift, because it also uplifts the neck, jowls, and cheeks very effectively. By repairing the deep supporting layers of the face, it produces more natural results and lasts much longer.
