It cost me my allotment of funds set aside for "upgrading" (11,000.00.) I am 1 1/2 yrs out, there is zero effect from any of the procedures done (confirmed by friends & family.) I have appt. this week to have this done all over again. Not sure if they are inept, not supervised, what the problem was, or is absolutely no results common in the plastic surgery world? If it is a success 11,000 won't have been wasted, I'd feel much better for sure. Should I allow the re-do, please advise!

Answer: Unhappy with Facelift results Hello Riverside1-Being happy after any plastic surgery procedure is a common goal between patient and surgeon. It's easy to say but harder to achieve. It starts with being well educated and that generally starts with making sure that you have someone actually trained in the plastic surgery. If you haven't done so already, get a second opinion and make it a good one. Find a board certified plastic surgeon certified by a member board of the the American Board of Medical Specialties. This certification will at least steer you towards someone who know how to be safe. You can then judge how could of a tissue sculptor they are by looking at their postoperative photos, not only facelifts but look at all areas of the face, breast and body. A reputable, good plastic surgeon should have a good sense of 3D spatial aesthetic balance and should be able to sculpt all areas of the body equally well. Either they have that sensibility or they don't. Your current surgeon may be this person, but regardless, get a second opinion from someone that does have these credentials. Choose wisely and spend your money wisely on recognized value. Good luck.

Answer: Revision facelift First of all I am sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with your facial aesthetic rejuvenation. This is something that you did not take lightly and set aside time, energy, and money to achieve an outcome. It can be terribly disappointing to have a negative or sub optimal result.
