Not Worth It
Spent: $6,500 in NYC
I had the LSL. I didnt review as I usually do b/c my neighbor had it done and nothing was wrong. I saw her through it all and she was very pleased. I made the appt. and had it done. Because the explaination of the "simple" proceedure, I went by train and w/o anyone!! What a mistake. They never checked my blood, never asked if I was on any meds or if I had any heart disease!!! NOTHING11111 Thank the Lord I am a healthcare processional and I knew enough to have blood tests b/f it was done!!! I developed a Hematoma. It was swelling immediately after the surgery. I was told by a TECH that I should put some ice and press. I went home by train. I returned 3 days later with a hugh purple, what looked like a blood blister covering 1/2 way up my right ear!!!! The Dr. and Tech were in the room and the Dr. began picking at the stitches b/c they were crusted over and there wasn't any drainage. She did it for a few min. then hr Tech took over. Squeezing and poking with a syringe for this "blood clot" to POP like a pimple!!!! I had to tell the tech to get the Dr. b/c it wasn't working and it needed attention from a Doctor. After an hour of doing this, she got the Dr. The Dr. didnt come in just told her to get some set up for more surgery!!! I couldnt believe it. I got up walked out and told them I was going to the EMERGENCY ROOM. I left with blood trckling down my neck and went to a "REAL PLASTIC SURGEON". This Surgeon took out the stictches and cleaned out the dry blood and re stitched me, THE CORRECT WAY, and I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, GO TO THIS DOCTOR OR LSL CENTER EVER AGAIN... I just hope I'm ok after the significant amount of brusing all the way down to my collar bone, and swelling. I now have to pay another "REAL" PLASTIC SUREGON for what he did and have to worry that a stitch won't protude out of my face or neck!!!!!
