Wow you look very beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
May i ask your age..? your face looked amazing in the "before" photo
Naturally beautiful results. Definitely it doesn't appear you've had work done. I too was very, very satisfied with my results by Dr. Mardirossian's eye for detail and his skill and expertise. The whole staff is exceptional.
I think Elizabeth looks just as beautiful before and did not need any work.
i agree completely...it is a funny one

Pre and Post Face Lift Pictures

Please talk about exactly what you had done. You look fantastic! Did you have fat injections?
Thank you for your kind words. I must admit the pictures do NOT do justice to Dr. Mardiossian's work. I had a procedure called the "S" lift. This is a one of kind face lift that only Dr. Mardirossian does.
You look beautiful, refreshed and natural looking. I have heard of the S lift, it's where they lift the lower two third of the face but unlike a traditional FL does not lift the cheeks or improve the nasolabial folds, it's generally done on younger people.
Joan, thank you for your question! The S lift we perform is a minimally invasive facelift that accomplishes more than a traditional facelift does but through minimal incisions and without the use of general anesthesia. We "loft" the soft tissue that is sagging along the jawline and recreate fuller cheeks in a way that acts pretty much like a natural (and permanent) filler. That is why viewers may think that Elizabeth had fat grafting which she actually did not have. Last but not least the technique of long-lasting local anesthesia combined with the twilight sleep during the procedure guarantee minimal or no bruises and no pain.
Dr. M..what does "loft" mean? Wouldn't fat grafting last longer?
I think the doctor meant lift. It's a typo.
ORIGINAL POST

Through the years I have been under the care of...

Through the years I have been under the care of several plastic surgeons..  Always trying to chase away father time.  Then I was referred to Dr. Jacobson and Dr. Mardirossian..  This amazing team did what I longed for.  They turned back the clock on my appearance.  They gave me back what time had taken away.  The confidence to look in the mirror and love what I see. 

My journey to looking amazing started when I met one of my employees wife's .  I found myself staring at her.  She was older and looked incredible.  I had to ask.  What is your secret?  She smiled and said a "J-Lift" by Dr. Jacobson and Dr. Mardirossian. I asked to see her scars.  She laughed.  She had none!!!

I called for a consultation.  During my consultation Dr. Jacobson and Dr. Mardirossian addressed all of my needs and concerns.  They answered all of my questions. They took their time.  I was not rushed.  I really liked that.  How is this for their integrity.  I asked about smart lipo on other parts of my body.   They both agreed it was not necessary and I did not need it.  I believe any other plastic surgeon would have jumped at the chance to make more money and would have agreed to unnecessary procedure.

I had surgery Oct.7th.  I had multiple procedures.   An "S-Lift" for my face and neck, filler in my lips,  Smart Lipo and RF Therapy on abdomen and flank area just over your hip.  

To say I am happy with my results is an understatement...  There are no words to express my gratitude to these very skilled surgeons.   They took 15 years off my face and neck. They gave me beautiful natural lips. The smart lipo removed the fat I just could not lose and the RF therapy tighten my loose skin from pregnancies.  I "use to" have what I called the deflated basketball on my stomach and loose skin on my lower back which I was told by another plastic surgeon - nothing could be done.  Well, he was wrong.  Dr. Jacobson and Dr. Mardirossian made it all disappear!!!!  

After surgery, I was surprised.  I had no bruising...  None on my face or body.  I ask the Dr. Mardirossian how was this possible.  He stated it was due to the meticulous surgical technique and the use of a particular type of local anesthesia which decreases bleeding, bruising and pain.  Also after 5 hrs in the OR I only took one pain pill.  Incredible. 

Everyone I know tells me how great I look and "natural".   The greatest compliments that I truly value came from my other physicians.  From my dermatologist who was amazed by my natural results and the technique used.  I did not have a "pulled" look as patients do after a face lift.   To my ob-gyn.  My ob-gyn floored me when she said "you must have changed plastic surgeons.  You look so natural, so fresh, simply better than I have every seen you look.  Before you always had a weird plastic look.  You could tell you had something done".  But now you look amazing and wonderfully youthful, natural and NOT done"   Wow!!!  When my other physicians notice and make such positive comments you know you have an incredible results.

Just another little FYI. My hair is cut extremely short and around the ear.  You can't see or tell I had a face lift.   There are no signs that I had surgery.  The only thing you can see is I look incredibly "natural" and much younger.  I never expected to hear "Natural".   Dr. Jacobson especially devised the S-Lift and J-Lift both are custom type face lift that No other surgeon does.  That is the secret of not looking like you had a face lift.

The office staff and the doctors are professional, warm and friendly. The office immaculate.  The care you will receive from this remarkable team will make you feel like family and not a patient.    I strongly recommend this practice.  I am so excited to share "The Secret" of looking "naturally" your best under the care of Dr. Jacobson and Dr. Mardirossian.

Sincerely,
Elizabeth

Would be nice to see your results
Great review, thank you. I'll have to start saving for the trip to Florida :-)
I live in South East Florida and have been looking for a facial plastic surgeon, I've seen a few but haven't had the feeling that they were the right one for me. I'd love to hear more and would also love to see some photos. Thanks so much!!!
I'm glad you're so pleased with your experience and results! What would you say was the most difficult part of your recovery?
Waiting three days to wash my hair and following drs orders on minimal talking... I was so excited by the experience I wanted to call all my friends. I am still amazed by it all... I was even driving by the next afternoon.
Did you have prior procedures? I'm confused when you say your OBGYN said you previously had a"weird plastic look".
No, never to my face. It was from using to much filler.
