Short description: In The Facelift Diaries, clinician friends Jill Scharff and Jaedene Levy offer forthright, professional advice and intimate personal experience, revealing what it's really like to have a facelift. This guide explores all the angles with personal diaries chronicling the authors' own facelifts. In entries ranging from "Sunshine and reflection" to "Screw this!" and "Still a weirdo," the two friends give a faithful account of their post-op highs and lows. 500,000 Americans have facial cosmetic surgery every year, and each week, countless makeover shows glamorize such surgeries. Scharff and Levy's personal and professional approach to all aspects of cosmetic surgery - emotional and physical - demystifies the experience and offers tips and truths on everything from selecting a surgeon to facing family and friends. Honest and insightful, informative and conversational, The Facelift Diaries is a must-read for everyone who is wondering "Should I or shouldn't I?"
