Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Lindsey Pennington

What is the typical recovery timeline for a combination facial rejuvenation surgery?
For comprehensive facial rejuvenation procedures like an Endoscopic brow lift, Extended deep plane facelift, Structural neck lift, Upper blepharoplasty, Earlobe reduction, Laser resurfacing, and Fat grafting, patients are still actively healing at 4 weeks post-operation. Results will continue to improve significantly in the weeks and months following this initial recovery period.
What does a typical Post-Op Day 5 visit entail?
A typical Post-Op Day 5 visit includes removing the final drain, taking out eye sutures, wound care, and another hyperbaric treatment.
What support is available for out-of-town patients?
The practice has developed a robust support system for patients traveling to Shreveport for surgery, aiming to create a strong support system away from home. This support system includes trusted post-op caregivers, concierge pharmacy services, meal prep support, and in-office check-ins, even on weekends and holidays. Additionally, the practice facilitates surgery preparation for out-of-town patients by arranging for their prescriptions to be filled and ready upon their arrival.
What does the pre-surgery discussion involve?
Dr. Pennington conducts a pre-surgery discussion with patients to understand their excitement, nervousness, and reasons for choosing the timing of their procedure, ensuring a personalized approach.

Facelift incisions continue to change, soften, and mature throughout the healing process, typically from 1 week up to 6 months.
Why did Dr. Pennington build her own surgery center?

Every detail of the center was intentionally designed around safety, consistency, privacy, and personalized care. This also allows her to work with the same trusted team, follow the protocols she believes in, provide dedicated overnight nursing care, and the operating room environment itself is designed to be calm, ultimately creating an experience specifically designed for facial rejuvenation patients.
When is the optimal time to consider a facelift?
The optimal timing for considering a facelift varies for each individual, as the 'right' time is different for everyone.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$134,472

Payments

135

Compared to peers

Substantially above average

Dr. Lindsey Pennington received $134,472 across 135 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 97% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
