Here are pre, post and now pics. I did have a series of Venus freeze laser treatments done onmy face and neck Aug 2013. I guess the lesson I learned about the lifestyle lift is to do more research pre sx. If you decide to have a facelift make sure to discuss how long the results will last (it was not discussed when I went for my pre op), how your earlobes will look post sx(mine are pulled down and a good surgeon will not do this) and make sure your pain will be managed better than mine was (the rx pain meds I was given caused severe nausea to the point of dry heaves so I was told to take an OTC pain killer which did not help at all) Hope this helps. I won't stop trying to hold off the aging. My husband says I am going into old age kicking and screaming!

absolutely not worth the $6000+ that I spent!! I had it done in Aug 2011 when I was 56 because I did not like what I called my turkey neck. I am not a baby but, the post op time(first week) was MISERABLE!! If the results had lasted, I would be OK with the week of pain but, they did not. After only two years, the turkey neck returned and I looked the same as my before pics-and I have used premium face treatments, serums, lotions, etc trying to keep the result. So, if you are looking for long lasting results at a reasonable price, this is not it.

Thanks for sharing your experience on RealSelf! It's always helpful to hear about results a couple years out.

I also live in Phoenix. I know it would be helpful to me and others (since many fly into the city for more available & less expensive surgery) if you could list the doctor. I, for one, would steer clear of both the doctor & clinic you went to. Thanks for your post and consideration.

It was the Lifestyle lift in downtown Phoenix. The main issue w them was no follow up care to assure lasting results & my earlobes were pulled down after the sx

Wow thank you for the advice > I am researching to find something more reliable than these . If you are paying so much money at least you want something that will last longer .

AFter losing 110 lbs, I went had my Lifestyle Lift, but also went to Mexico for a body lift, and boob, and arm lift. I had researched this for 2 years before going with Dr. Francisco Sauceda, from Nueva Leone, Mexico. He is awesome, and the prices are amazing compared to American prices. He does AWESOME work on body AND face. My next procedure will be with him. I am thinking, thigh lift with lipo and full face, as I am now 63 and want a fresh look. He really does great work!
