My surgeon offered to correct,(without charge) a neck lift that I felt had a bad result. Do patients usually allow the same doctor to do revisions? This doctor is board certified, has an accredited surgical suite and a board certified anesthesiologist in his office with 25 years experience. He was recommended to me by 4 people, one of which had a neck lift with a fine outcome. I am comfortable in his office and love his staff.I dont know whether I was just unlucky or neck lifts are not his forte
