Hi,

Has anyone had the Life style Lift? that they show on tv. Or have you sent away for the info. I feel like I need to do something even though I need to lose more weight. I think being 62 is the reason the face has sags.

Thanks for the help.

I actually did look into it. It's actually a very old technique they've been doing for over 25 years, they're just doing new marketing with a new name for it.

It is still very much a surgical procedure. They cut along your hair line and down behind your ears then pull the skin taught and sew it. Some people do have nice results but a lot end up with some noticeable scars, especially by and behind the ears.

Thank you. My husband said to look into it.

I actually had the procedure 5 years ago. I loved the results! Gotta say, it IS very much a surgical procedure. They advertise as if you can have it on your lunch hour and go back to work...not so! My face was swollen like a huge pumpkin for at least a week. A lot of pain went along with it, but as I said, I love the results. Maybe I was one of the lucky ones, but I have no scars.

why did you do the Life Style and not a real face lift? I would do something if I had the money right now. Thanks.

I just had a few places that looked to me like they needed a lift. I was 47 at the time and wanted to do something before it looked like I needed it and this worked for me. I still have 80 pounds to lose, and if I see some sagging from the weightloss or aging, I'll have it done again. This time I'll make sure I schedule a few weeks to recuperate :)

There were three people who had the procedure the same day I did and returned for their follow-up when I did. All three were in their late 60's and they looked pretty good after, but I'm sure it's different for everyone.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
