Patient Comments

"It's been a year since having a MACS-Lift... I am so happy with my results. Thank you so much, Dr. Bock and staff."

"I'm just so pleased! Everyone keeps saying how good I look. They keep asking, 'What's different? You look rested.' I've been really happy!"

"I'm getting a lot of good feedback. They don't really know what is different but they say, 'you look really good!'. It looks natural, that's what I like about it."

"People say to me, 'You look nice...different.' I like it because it looks natural. It doesn't look like I had something done."

"[The anesthesia] was much better than I.V., than being completely out of it." (When asked to rate the discomfort on a scale of 0 to 10 where 0 was no discomfort and 10 was maximum discomfort, she rated it a 2.)

"My husband wants me to do things with him now because I'm not self conscious anymore." (When asked to rate the discomfort of the procedure, with 0 being no discomfort and 10 being maximum discomfort, her rating was 0-1. When asked to rate her satisfaction with the results, with 0 being as unhappy as possible and 10 being as happy as possible, her rating was 8-9.)

"You did a good job!"

"With this bitter divorce I'm going through, people are saying to me that I look like I'm holding up really well. I just can't bring myself to tell them that I've had the MACS-Lift."

"My co-workers think it took off 15 years."

"Thank you so very much for your service. I always like to do something nice for someone who does something nice for me. [She brought home-made chocolate chip cookies.] I was very impressed with no bruising and the healing. Very impressed.... A stranger came up to me and said, 'You have such pretty skin,' so it's really fun."

"You told me I'd look 10 years younger, but I looked at pictures taken 15 years ago, The wrinkles that were there then are gone now. I think you've take off more than 15 years."

"Two days after the surgery my daughter, who didn't know I had anything done, told me my neck was very skinny. I'm very happy with the procedure. It's so nice to see my jawline without those clumps of fat. It's so nice to to see my skin without excess. It's beautiful. I think it turned out better than I expected."

"I'm very happy with it. It's so natural. It doesn't seem like you were hit by the wind. It doesn't look rubbery."

"I love the way it turned out... So far I'm thrilled. I have an identical twin sister who had a full face lift. I think I got a better result, and she paid a heck of a lot more money."

"I'm very happy." (After being shown her 'before' pictures: "That's not even me. That's my older sister.")

"Since age fifteen I've taken care of others. This is the first time I ever did something for me. I'm so glad I chose you."

"I'm very happy. It's very comfortable. It feels very natural and relaxed... I look wonderful and rested. That's what I wanted."

"My friend was shocked that I didn't have a lot more bruising. I'm fair and I tend to bruise a lot."

"I am thrilled and, what's better, my husband's thrilled. It came out just wonderful....I feel much taller."

"I'm very happy about it. I like that it looks very natural. I don't look like I had a facelift. I feel refreshed. I like the way that my hair covers it... I'm very happy. I'm feeling especially lovely, better than I expected. My neck looks natural. The jowl thing..I'm pleased that it looks so good. I was especially pleased about how I felt the day after. I felt fine! It didn't affect me. I was absolutely fine. I just felt wow! Just great."

"This is great! I can be out in public and if someone doesn't know me, they're not scared...I was concerned with where the incision line was, and I was thrilled that my hair just naturally covers the scar...I really noticed the difference across the bottom of the neck. I like that it doesn't look like a 20 year old neck...It looks like my neck, just better." (Comment by Dr. Bock: "As the swelling goes down, the neck will look even better.")

"I'm very happy with the results."

"I'm very happy with the results. You're stuck with me from now on."

"It has been 12 weeks today since you performed the S-Lift and Lip Rejuvenation for me. What can I say. Thanks are not enough. It's a miracle. I feel wonderful and look at least 5 years younger if not more. I have been using the Skin Medica products faithfully and have notice a great improvement in the pores on my face (reduced in size). I will be back for more."

"I'm very impressed. My husband loves it."

"Thank you so much. You did a wonderful job. I've waited years for this but I never would have done a face lift. I'm so glad you came along with the S-Lift. I can't tell you how pleased I am."

"I haven't felt this good, thanks to you, in years. You've really done a lot for me. I want to thank you."
