WORTH IT
If I could give Dr Tregaskiss,10 stars I would. I just had a lower lift, fat graft and lipo suction to my face. I am still quite swollen, I can see, I already have a chin. I have not had one for years. From the start, his team has been there 24/7 for me. I had anxiety before the surgery and sent many emails. Laura answered everyone of them. I went into surgery, confident. After surgery, the Dr called me at home, gave me his cell number and told me to call anytime. I have never had a Dr do this. Just knowing he was there to help has made my recovery easier. I will update, my journey as time goes on.

He is my first choice for full facelift & fat transfer. I really liked his demeanour, education, & staff. My second consultation early August & then hopefully November I’ll go for it. Your recent surgery with Dr. Tregaskiss has given me confidence to trust my face in his hands. Thank you so much for posting. Look forward to your updates.

I just went for some Botox at another clinic. (my injector has been there for years). She works along side a well known plastic surgeon. She was so impressed by what Dr Treggaskiss did. How you can not see any of my stitches, the results. We looked up what the surgeon there would cost. It was $10,000 more. Plus he does not do fat transfers. Remember it's a long journey. You can resume all normal things after a few weeks. For me, the swelling is now going down, lumps are settling, I am so confident. All the Dr kept saying, was I promise you things will settle. Right down to Laura, office staff and surgical staff. Amazing. I nurse. I never heard of any Dr who does home calls, after surgery you literally can call 24 hrs. It's not just about the money for them. Good luck. Let me know.

It would be so nice to see a recent photo to see how things have changed.

Week 2 of post op. Neck tubes are out. Still swollen with a bit of a bump on the rt side. I read this is common. This is why I researched and picked a great plastic surgeon, Dr. Tregaskiss and his team

Over two months post op. As promised by the Doctor, the lumps are going down. I was becoming frustrated with my healing process. I see some reviews, where it seems like people have a lower lift and a few weeks later, it looks great. For me, my healing has been longer, and it is important I put this out there. If you are thinking of getting a lower face lift, it may take time to see results. Even after 2 months my face is still numb and healing. I would not have gone to any other Doctor. Dr Tregaskiss, is incredible. Each time I go in, he reassures me. I will post more photos. I am starting to see results. Remember it's a long process for some. It does get better. So worth it. Get a good Doctor, it is your face. It's important to have someone like I did that is a master of his skill.

I am on five weeks post-op. I still have a prominent lump on one side. I have a feeling as if parts of my cheeks are frozen. When I read the reviews on here. I always thought I would go from surgery to a month later fabulous. Lower face lift is a major surgery. It takes time to heal. I am hoping the lump eventually goes down. Feeling comes back in the face. It is a process. If you are thinking of having this surgery be patient.

Two years post lower face lift

I am now 2 years into my lower face lift. I don't think I would ever do it again. My face has not settled well. I have a lump on one side, near my chin line. I never had and a lump along the cheek. I was hoping this would smooth out. It makes my face lopsided. Safe money and get fillers.

Sorry to hear that! A picture would be helpful. I also had a full facelift with Dr. Tregaskiss. For the most part I was happy with the result, 1 1/2 years later. However, I did get a lot of wrinkling when I smile on my left side which was never there before. Also the fat transfer didn’t take well on either sides of my nose. So I did have disappointments too. After other consultations I just accepted that nothing is perfect & my results still are pretty good. Dr. Tregaskiss does try to make you happy. Hopefully you have talked to him about your issue.

Hello, had my Deep Plane Facelift on 4/19/23. Even though I am in early days of recovery I too have a bit of a lopsided face. Dr told me very normal.
However, he suggested I do Lymphatic Drainage to remove the swelling. I have had 3 treatments and definitely look better. Look for Lymphatic Drainage and have a professional work on you. It feels very nice, and the results are worth the money.

Thank you so much for your lovely thoughtful review, I can't believe you only a few days out of surgery and already thinking of others so much, that's so kind of you! We're all so thrilled that you've had a wonderful experience and you have a chin!! That's so exciting, we can't wait to see your post-surgery results. Thanks again Rita and best wishes,
