CONSULTATION DAY

I live in Metamora, Michigan. Lifestyle Lift has a beautiful office in Troy, Michigan. Which is about a 40 minute drive for me. Diane is my consultant who introduced me to Lifestyle Lift and the prospect of looking better. What a nice lady. The minute I walked into the office I felt at ease and very comfortable with my decision. What an informative and interesting session we had. All my questions were answered. We laughed and talked like old friends. What a pleasure the whole experience was. I cannot wait to meet Dr. Khoury on October 3 at 10:15.

IMPORTANT FACT: You do not wait long at your appointment. Within 5 minutes I was seen. I liked that from the get go. No one likes to be kept waiting. Anyway Dr. Khoury-WOW-what a wonderfully nice man! I liked him immediately. He was genuinely honest, direct and sincere. It's important to know what to expect- side effects- treatments -medications- et cetera. The known is usually easier to accept than the unknown. Not only does knowledge reduce fear but it can make you calmer knowing what comes next by having a frank and thorough discussion about your own situation and expectations with your doctor. Dr. Khoury is not one of those "busy, unresponsive health professionals". He spoke to me - like he had all the time in the world. There was no pressure to "hurry up". He was kind and informative - thorough - comforting and enthusiastic. He loves his job and that showed very clearly. I trusted him. He wants to do his best for me and he is determined to make me happy with my results should I choose to have a Lifestyle Lift. I was 100% sure I had made the right decision for me. I think Dr. Khoury is going to be "My Hero".

PROCEDURE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YIKES!!! October 6, 2007

No coffee this A.M. but I can have breakfast. I am sooo nervous - but excited. My sister Margaret is driving me and I will drive her when she has hers done. We were met by Donna - Dr. Khoury's nurse. She made me feel at east right away but I was still very nervous about the shots I would be getting. Dr. Khoury came in as soon as Donna told him of my concerns to let me know not to worry. He would do everything he could to make is as painless as possible. He is just a truly caring, passionate and professional individual and he did not let me down - not even for an instant.

EVERYTHING HE SAID HE WOULD DO - HE DID
EVERYTHING HE SAID WOULD BE DONE - WAS
EVERYTHING HE SAID I COULD EXPECT- I DID

I actually fell asleep during my procedure which I guess does not happen very often- but I knew i was in good hands. The drive home was uneventful. I had my pain script filled and spent that afternoon,evening and Sunday resting and sleeping. Any discomfort I had was alleviated by my pain medications.

MONDAY, 2 DAYS AFTER MY PROCEDURE October 8, 2007

I didn't need much pain medication at all. But I have no loose skin on my neck!!!!!!!!!!!! HOORAY! It looks great already-I am SOOO EXCITED! "Go ahead" I tell people, "try and grab some loose skin on my neck, aint gonna happen!!!" My face is puffy -some bruising which is not surprising as I had already been briefed on what to expect. I had been to the office the day after the procedure. Dr. Khoury likes to remove the bandages himself to make sure everything is fine which it was. I am to return in 4-6 weeks.

10 DAYS EXACTLY SINCE MY PROCEDURE October 16, 2007

Still a small amount of bruising but I am so happy. I JUST LOVE DR. KHOURY! All I know is this: Dr. Khoury takes pride in his ability and rightly so. He exceeded my expectations and I will and am recommending him to anyone who may ask. The high standards that Dr. Khoury holds himself and his staff to should be the example and inspiration for each and every Lifestyle Lift office in this country!

Using Lifestyle Skin's Choice For 1 Week & 20 DAYS SINCE MY PROCEDURE October 26,2007

Hi again everyone. I wanted to touch base with you all once more to let you all know how my Lifestyle Lift and I are doing. I am 20 days since I met with Dr. Khoury  at the Troy, Michigan Office. I am adding some more pictures (without any makeup) of my progress just so you all can have an idea of how things are progressing with me. Keep in mind now, that each one of us is different and there will be different variables for each of us as to how quickly we heal or bruise or swell etc.

I am still bruised  a little by my left ear area but can cover it up with makeup when working.  Some soreness or tenderness some days around the area as well, but not even enough for pain medication. No puffiness at all.
I have been introduced to a new skin care line by  the Lifestyle Lift people call Lifestyle Skin's Choice. I started exactly  Oct 20. It has been formulated to rejuvenate, soothe and moisturize skin especially after a Lifestyle Lift procedure. I should have taken pictures before I started but will startt today . I have to admit that I was skeptical because of my very sensitive skin. I also have rosacia and have reacted badly to numerous products over the years. So far, so good! No bad rashes or bumps and my skins feels nice and soft. Will keep you posted on this as well. I know from experience that I must give skin products at least 6-8 weeks to see and feel results.
I received a call today from “Sue” from Missouri to ask about my experiences concerning my Lifestyle Lift. I will tell you what I told her -  Yes - I would do it again and I am a big baby  when it comes to any kind of discomfort.   So…..take a deep breath and let the Lifestyle Lift make you love your looks!

One Month Since My Lifestyle Lift November 6, 2007

Exactly one month ago today, I had my lifestyle lift.  I guess I can stop wearing the chin strap.  My post op instruction sheet said I needed to wear this at bedtime for one month.

I’m feeling just fine.  Everything is back to normal.  I find myself scrutinizing every face I see, thinking “gosh- she could really use a lifestyle lift.” or “her eyes would look so much better if she went to see Dr. Khoury”.

I think I should shut myself in a closet for a while until I calm down, but I am still so impressed with difference I see – I can’t help but talk about it.  I will see Dr. Khoury next week for my seven week check up.  I’m looking forward to being able to thank him again for a job well done.

November 12, 2007

Just returned from the Troy Life Style Lift office.  I had my six week check up today.  Wow, what a busy office!  I’m thinking that a lot of us girls and boys want to look our best for the holidays.  What a great gift to yourself!  I say “GO FOR IT”.  You will never regret it, and I can assure you that you will know, feel and see that it was money well spent. 

Everyone at the Troy, Michigan office is so gracious.  I received a lot of compliments today.  In fact since I have returned to work, people can’t figure out what is new about me.  “Did you get your hair cut?”  “Have you lost weight?”  “Your look really rested.”  I have confessed to some of my coworkers, but the others I will leave wondering.  My family and friends know, of course.  Something as good as this you just can’t keep to yourself.  I think the difference in my looks are quite dramatic!  I am so pleased – I’m sure you have read this before, but I can’t help but be truly satisfied with my outcome.  Even with the relaxation of my skin, which is expected, I am still very, very happy with my results.  One of the good decisions in my life!

This will be on the list of things I am thankful for:  Finding Dr. Khoury and deciding to have a Lifestyle Lift.

Will keep in touch.  Happy Thanksgiving,

-Maureen

December 7

It’s me again…

It was officially 2 months yesterday that I had my lifestyle lift.  I have a little numbness right around the front of my ears, but that is all that remains.  What I am left with now girls, is a jaw line and a nice tight neck!!

I’m so glad I met Dr. Khoury and all the staff at the Troy office.  I miss them, but not to worry.  I will see them all again in February when I take yet another sister down to get her Lifestyle lift!
I am so excited for her and can’t wait to see how great she will look and how happy she will be.  She is very excited about it, which is how everyone feels.

Just let Dr. Khoury work his magic on you and turn back the hands of time. 

Peace and Happy Holidays,
Maureen
