MyEllevate Photos - Before and After - HAPPY

WORTH IT
Update to review as first photos didnt upload. I'm very pleased! Zero complications and literally no pain. The only uncomfortable part has been the tightness of the neck but that subsided not long after. I'm about 8 weeks out and everything has healed. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a non-surgical procedure that requires very little downtime.

you mention it's non surgical but I see an incision line around the front of your ear. Was this an in office surgical lift? It is done with sutures but you're not under general anesthesia. What was the cost?
You look great! Very beautiful and natural looking results!
My understanding is that MyEllevate IS surgical with stitches. Do you have any photos of how well the stitches healed? I am considering this with Dr Ho. I'd super appreciate any more information you'd be willing to share. : )
Hello, you look great, but I noticed your sutures at your ears - Are they part of the procedure? Isn't that surgical?
I asked him about this, and his explanation was very simple. Dr. Ho offers two types of MyEllevate procedures. The basic one is just called MyEllevate and no sutures are placed on the outside. The bigger procedure is named MyEllevate Plus, and involves making incisions around the ears so that extra skin can be removed. This is typically done for patients with excess skin around the neck, which gives a much better result.
so it's a facelift then
I love the way this person won't address the obvious ear scar questions; makes me wonder about what procedure was actually performed (and the authenticity of this review)....
ORIGINAL POST

MyEllevate Neck Procedure = Very Easy! Pleased!

At the age of almost 55 I had excess skin in the neck area that would not go away. I wanted to improve the definition of my jowl line / neck area. I was looking for a non-surgical way to do this. Dr. Ho offered this procedure and I've been really pleased with the results. Basically, the procedure tightens the neck bands and muscles around the neck area using a suture suspension system to tighten the area. There were a few small punctures made along my jowl line and underneath. There were no incisions made or any removal of the skin. It's really just a suture placed over the muscle and beneath the skin too tighten the area. It took about an hour and it did not require going under any general anesthesia. Dr. Ho used a local anesthetic and I could not feel any pain at all. The recovery time was also very minimal. I was a bit tired but fine and back working the next day. If you're looking for a non-surgical procedure for your neck area I would highly recommend!
