I went in for a consultation for a face-and-neck lift the day before yesterday.
The clinic was smaller than I had expected, but it made sense since they only do one surgery a day.
I was told in a community forum that when you consult about a lift, it helps to bring old photos from before you started sagging, so I showed photos and had my consultation with the director. The director did not have a particularly friendly or warm speaking style compared with other places, but I learned the reason for facial sagging, the principle of a lift surgery, and that the key to a lift is not to create a new face but to return to my former appearance before sagging.
I could feel that he had been researching and performing lifts for a long time, and I trusted him a lot. He showed before-and-after photos, and there were no results that looked like flounder fish or a mantis, and the sideburns were preserved, which made me trust him even more. Overall, the consultation was satisfying, but I also have foreign material in me, so I need removal as well, which makes the total cost expensive, so I am still thinking about it.
