Opinions on a lifestyle lift?

7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers

Mixed emotions: While i understand the desire to obtain a cosmetic procedure at an affordable cost, I am troubled by the high pressure sales approach and commoditization of the procedure. A facelift is not a car where the product is the same at different dealerships and problems are referred back to the original manufacturer. This is a highly individualized procedure.

LifeStyle Lift Worry: Lifestyle lift a trademarked brand name and also is a chain of facial cosmetic clinics with headquarters in troy, michigan. As advertised, the lifestyle lift is a minimally invasive, short scar lower face lift performed under local anesthesia by facial plastic surgeons, head and neck surgeons, and plastic surgeons. It is not a specific technique.Success is dependent on the surgeon's ability.

They've closed down:: the operation is a franchised,1size- fits-all shortcut procedure developed by a non-MD that relied on blindly-placed sutures instead of proven but more labor-intensive and skilled techniques. The 30% who were satisfied initially were, predictably, back @ baseline appearance by 1 year. Unusual complications unkown in regular facelift. see ASPS/ASAPS
