I am in my early fifties and noticed jowls and a neck I wan't loving. My husband was very against a lift as he was afraid I would look like a stretched "Beverly Hills Housewife". I spent a year researching. I knew I would only go to someone whose work I had seen first hand. I was very clear that I didn't want to look 20 years younger, but that I wanted to look refreshed, and as vital as I feel. I was led toward Dr. Sedati by a friend whose face he had done. Although I live near Beverly Hills, I traveled 90 minutes to see him because I wasn't loving the results or bedside manner of all the Bev Hill consults.
Dr. Sadati gave my husband and I 90 minutes of his time. No hard sell, just a really intelligent walk through of the process, and what he would do to give me exactly what I wanted. No more, no less. I decided to take the plunge, and it's the best decision ever.
The entire experience from beginning to end was over and beyond what I expected. He doesn't use general anaesthesia for this procedure - a kind of twilight deal, which makes recovery much faster. I was afraid going in, but was immediately calmed down by his amazing staff. I literally never saw a needle or operating room or anything scarily medical because his whole thing is that he wants a totally relaxed patient. He even gives you meditations to listen to prior and for post-healing! I woke up in the recovery room with a smoothie in my hand and went back to a local hotel to sleep it off. The next morning I went in to have the dressing removed and I was on my way. A week later I came back for stitches to be removed, and I can only say I am thus far thrilled with the results. Minimal bruising (going back to work 9 days later!). Yes, there was a bit of pain, swelling etc for first 2 days, but totally manageable with Tylenol. Have to sleep inclined (which is hard for me), but again totally doable. Cannot wait to see how the whole thing heals, but right now I am 80% there, which is so much faster than I expected. A GREAT experience, with fantastic results.
