While the 3-Day Facelift Diet from Dr. Perricone is not specifically for weight loss, that has been an added bonus for some using this plan. Dr. Perricone believes that the protein, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients of this diet help eliminate puffiness and increase contours and firmness. Salmon is eaten twice a day and specifically wild Alaskan salmon is recommended. The 3-Day Facelift Diet is actually a modified version of the plan outlined in Dr. Perricone's first book, "The Wrinkle Cure." The main focus is eating sensibly for three days while consuming healthy, anti-inflammatory foods, such as brightly colored fruits and vegetables. These foods have antioxidant properties and abilities to fight free radicals, which cause wrinkles.
