Vanity is sweeping the country, a virtue that board-certified, E.N.T. facial plastic surgeon, David Kent, M.D. has clearly taken advantage of. He has patented a procedure called the Life Style Lift, that can make you look and feel younger in less than an hour and without the trauma and downtime of extreme plastic surgery.
“People in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and even 70s, have benefited from this procedure,” says Kent. “Those who have frown lines, jowlling, extra skin tissue under the neck [sometimes called turkey neck] unwanted skin over and under the eyes, can be lifted, tightened, and the unwanted skin removed, all in about 40 minutes to an hour!”
It doesn’t seem possible with all the disenchantment, sham and drudgery facing the world today, that there is still such a great need to look younger, be more beautiful, feel better, and quickly, and inexpensively. But according to Dr. Kent, who has performed the Life Style Lift for more than 10,000 men and women to date, the response has been tremendous! “I believe the reason we have such great results with the Life Style Lift is that we focus exclusively on this one procedure,” he explains. “All of our physicians are experts at making you look younger with minimal bruising or long recovery times.
“But, the best part is that it’s safer. It is safer because we do not use harmful general anesthetics during the Life Style Lift. You are never asleep at anytime during the procedure and never at that risk. It’s the complete opposite of extreme facial plastic surgery where you’re put under dangerous anesthetics, and often don’t look like yourself for months, even years.”
The Lifestyle Lift procedure is everything a traditional face lift is not. A small incision is made in front of the ear, where they will lift and tighten, bring back the jaw line, tighten the neck and make everything look 10 to 20 years younger in about 45 minutes. The procedure is performed in a specialty equipped suite and the patient can return to work the next day.
“Instead of choosing a traditional, full face-lift, which is done under general anesthesia and takes about four hours with a long recovery period where you are incapacitated for a number of weeks, the Life Style Lift, takes about 60 minutes, a minor surgery procedure that is done under local anesthesia—like going to the dentist. And literally has no down time; you can go back to work the next day.
“You won’t experience much pain what-so-ever, maybe a small sting to numb you up!” Says Dr. Kent, who after finishing his medical training, joined a private practice in the Metropolitan Detroit area, performing facial plastic surgery, head and neck cancer and trauma surgery, and pediatric head and neck surgery. Now with Lifestyle Lift, he has offices in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Ft. Lauderdale, Houston, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Tampa and Washington, D.C.
“The effects are subtle,” adds Kun Z. Kim M.D, who is also, a board-certified facial & reconstructive surgeon, who performs this procedure. “People will just look at you and say, you look great! Life Style Lift is patented for a specific type of face lift that we are doing.
There are many different versions of a face lift. It can be done with general anesthesia, a full face lift that involves deep muscle pulling and so on. But typically those things require general anesthesia and can cost upwards of ten to twenty thousand dollars, and requires two weeks of convalescence. It’s really designed for people who need a deep lift, who may be elderly, thick-skinned, or have thick muscle tissue, etc.
“Life Style Lift has a different criteria,” explains Kim. “Our patients are carefully selected, geared to those who will benefit from this procedure. There are other names for this procedure, such as mini-lift, band aid lift, lunchtime lift, minimally invasive lift. All of these are different terms that describe what we are calling Life Style Lift. We call it lifestyle lift because it really should not affect your lifestyle, per say. You can return to work almost immediately, the next day. Recovery is very quick, you are awake, and it takes one hour.”
Dr Kim, whose formal education at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, and fellowships at the American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, has his private practice in Doraville, since 1986. He can be reached by calling 770 458 4255, or visiting www.kimfacialsurgery.com
This procedure is a very select mini face lift and does not address all aspects of the face. It addresses primarily the jowl line, and neckline. To a certain extent this procedure is for people with a limited amount of work to be done—it’s not chronological, it’s physiological. Action news at six, recently conducted a live, on air demonstration of the Life Style Lift procedure. And in plain view of millions of people, Dr. Kent performed his Life Style Lift procedure.
The patient looked 15 to 20 twenty years younger in about 40 minutes. “No chin sag here, no folds between the check and mouth, it’s pretty amazing,” attested, newscaster Becky Thompson of channel eleven news. Once the procedure was completed, a mirror was handed to the patient. The results were instantaneous. “The patient can go back to work the next day looking up to 20 years younger,” Thompson said. “That’s it!”
Face-lifts have been around for 100 years, so has the mini face lift. But with so many working women today, who do not either have the time or the money for a traditional face lift, this procedure is enlightening and comforting. There are approximately 25 doctors associated with the Life Style Lift. And with instant results, you can return to work the next day looking younger, more vibrant and youthful.
To sum up the Life Style Lift, it’s safer, easier and less expensive than the old way. You can find out if a Lifestyle Lift is right for you, by contacting 1.800. IMAGE.75, or visiting www.lifestylelift.com.

I'm not sure if this is of importance to you. I found this site when looking for plastic surgeons. It's completely free and they only deal with the best of the best. I have used them a couple times now. Check them out (www.ThePatientsAdvantage.com); seriously.
What about the class action against them? What about the fact they present it as a "treatment" but hold the fact it is a surgery until you sign up? The consent actually says, "May see little or no result." Many full facelift are done under local only with no anesthetic recovery but a comprehensive approach instead of the shortcut. I've done facial plastic surgery for 20 years without a complication, and i couldn't do a reasonable lift in an hour if my life depended on it.
This is a bad procedure in my opinion. Just look at all the horror stories on the RealSelf web site. www.realself.com
This sounds like a revolutionary move in skin tightening procedures! The less impact on the body that you do, the better for the health of the patient. Visit www.dermagenix.com
