Excellent Neck Lift Experience!

WORTH IT
I had a deep plane neck lift with Dr. Buonassisi on June 5th 2024 and the experience was excellent.
Consultation: I really appreciated that he took the time to answer all my questions in a way that felt like he was genuinely happy to answer them. I’ve had consults with other doctors that seem annoyed to answer the same questions they’ve been asked a million times, but he was the opposite. He said no to an additional procedure I inquired about but gave me very good reasons why. I appreciated the honesty and that he didn’t just say yes to take more money. The office staff was great at communication both before and after the procedure.
Procedure: It was done under twilight anesthesia and I was conscious the whole time. I know some people go to sleep, but I didn’t. But I kind of loved it. I was able to hear how professional the whole team was during the surgery. I felt very well taken care of by him and the team at the False Creek Surgery Centre. The team at 8 West checked in on me after as well to make sure I was doing well after going home.
Recovery: The twilight anesthesia felt much gentler to recover from which I appreciated. I had two drains for the first two days. They came out when the superficial stitches were removed. I was stiff and a bit sore but honestly it was a very easy recovery. The first week is the worst of it but I found it very tolerable. Dr. Buonassisi’s stitches and incisions are incredible. You already can’t see the scar in front of my ear and it’s only been a few months.
Overall it was an amazing experience. I’ve already recommended him to friends and random strangers that have asked. I would go back to him for any future facial work.
I’ll attach photos when I get them.
