WORTH IT
Searching for the right Dr. can feel overwhelming. The choices, different techniques, and the before and after pictures can make your head spin. So, I did what I do best and made a list. 1st I wanted a Dr. that ONLY DOES FACES , traveling didnt bother me and lastly the Deep Plain Facelift.
I Chose Dr. David Harley in Ashville North Carolina, and I couldnt be happier. Start to finish perfection. He walked me through the procedure and shared his opinions, which i welcomed!
During our consult, I decided to do the face and a lip lift.. and I couldn't be happier.
My procedure was June 15, so I'm only a few days out, but I wanted to share 1 picture. On the left is me before surgery, and the right is 22 hours later.( he had just taken the bandages off) I've been on this site so much, I wanted to help others. Good luck with everyone's search.

Hi Everyone,
Sorry it took this long to post my progress, but 2 weeks after my lift I was called back to work. Yugh!
So.... so far so good! I'm loving my results, and zero regrets. The recovery wasn't as bad as I thought, and with everyone having to wear masks, it was easy to get out without drawing attention.
Best part... getting the stitches out... "That was a great day" it wasn't painful, I was just over it. Worst part, the new normal of sleeping. ( but that also is much better) Lastly,
I wanted to say a big thank you to all the people who posted here. If it wasn't for there full disclosure, and there willingness to share I would never have found Dr Harley.

At 2 months still on the honeymoon period were swelling makes you look younger. Please keep posting as the months go by and your face changes. In the same light of course.Thanks

You look amazing! Would you mind posting close ups of the lip lift? Has recovery been painful?

Your results are absolutely incredible. So natural but it took 20 years off your face. Thanks for sharing your results. I'm still wowed by how wonderful you look (not that you looked bad to begin with)

Lip lift

I have had some women curious about my lip lift, and wanted to add a picture. On the left, morning of my surgery, and the right was taken today. My recovery was fairly easy, without any complications. The only minor issue I'm having is with the face masks... working 10 hour days the heat from my breath is causing me to break out a bit. ( nothing serious but wanted to mention it)

Wow you cant see a lip lift scar. Did you find that you are able to smile fully like before surgery and did your nostrils go back to their original shape after the lip lift?

My friends are still amazed from my lips. Its crazy that the smallest change can make the biggest impact.
August 13, 2020
Thank you for the new picture. Your lips look so pretty and utterly natural. I see no evidence of a scar at all.

There is a scar, but when I took the picture, I wanted the visual from the Before & After to be similar. If I were to lift my neck up slightly, take a picture.. it its visible.. but a tad of makeup seems to do the trick

You look amazing. I thought Dr H only did lower face/neck lift. Why did you decide on a deep plane lift versus lower face lift? Were you given an option ? Also how long did the surgery take?

From his website: Do you perform the Deep Plane Facelift?
Yes. Dr. Steiger is a leading expert in deep plane facelift surgery. He has performed well over 1000 deep plane facelifts. Dr. Steiger has been performing and innovated on the Deep Plane Facelift for over 10 years. Dr. Steiger’s Deep Plane Facelift surgery is one of the most advanced facelift surgeries available today. Dr. Steiger’s Deep Plane Facelift can ensure some of the most natural and effective results. Patients from all over South Florida, New York, Chicago, California and around the world have come to visit Dr. Steiger for a facelift in Boca Raton to benefit from his advanced facelift surgery techniques.
It also says Dr. Steiger's lifts take 1-4 hours and does whatever the particular type of lift that the patient needs. If it only takes 1 hour, that is a mini lift for sure. Nothing wrong with mini-lifts, if that is all you need. But older people that waste their money on min-lifts will be back in a year or 2 to get a SMAS lift or a deep plane lift.
I had a deep plane lift in NJ in 2019. My Dr. does have 20 years experience and only does deep plane lifts. His name is Dr. Mark Glasgold.
