Going for a facelift overseas only (ie no neck no eyes, just face) makes no sense unless you are getting the eyes and neck done also. PlanetHospital believes in making sure you get an excellent outcome and this sometimes means discouraging you from taking half measures. A facelift without the eyes being done will not look good in the long run.
Besides it might not be economically advantageous to JUST get a facelift only so when comparison shopping make sure you are comparing our prices to a full face lift with neck and eyes. Also, we know of many surgeons who can do this procedure for a LOT cheaper, but then again, we have yet to see CHEAP = GOOD. We instead are recommending world class surgeons who can give you a great look without the "saran wrap effect". Conditions Treated sagging skin on face, lose of skin tone, regenerate vitality to the face, restore facial functions for a stroke patient Close
