Dr. Jacono is a gifted surgeon who 10 weeks ago performed my face and neck lift achieving spectacular results. I don't look like someone who has had plastic surgery, I look like I went through a time machine and I am now literally 15 years younger. He and his team were with me 100% pre-, during, and post surgery and while I am still considered to be in the recovery process I can't believe how great I look. I had very high expectations and interviewed many well-respected Drs throughout the country before I chose Dr. Jacono. I can only say to anyone considering him, yes, yes, yes!
