“My Jowls Came Right Back After 6mos”

wow can i see the before and after pics. when you were pleased and now that you are not at all satisfied. I had seriously considered this surgery

I too am sorry that I did this. I do not think that it was worth the money. Mine was $5800, I had liposuction (which I did not need), a neck and jowels done. The neck actually looks ok. I had a terrible infection behind one ear. It took 3 prescriptions of different medicines, and a lot of pain. They saw me every week, but only in response to my complaints and only after I told them my regular Dr said they would need to do drain the abscess. Which they had to do twice, by the way! The infection went IN my ear as well, my ear was swollen 3 x it's size, bright red, and was extremely painful. I do believer that it only got better because I soaked, used ointment and drained it myself. I also kept it covered to allow it to drain. I have a scar in the middle of my neck, I have no idea why. They said it was from the wrap, and did not seem very concerned. Believe me they are very concerned about you before the surgery, but after, forget it! My jowls are better on one side but the other side, no. At first I was happy, but the right side seems to have fallen and there is a large bump of stitch behind my ear. I still get stabbing pain and that ear is numb. Funny, the infection was on the other side. I think that there are a lot of secrets about this surgery, and everyone is very quiet. In the office here, no one talks, and if someone looks a little bad, they whip them into an office hoping no one else will see them. If there is a complaint, same thing, they keep it very quiet. I am over the best age and no one told me that ever. They said they did surgery on someone who was 90 years old and it was a success! I have to admit that I thought that was extreme, and I should have known right then and there to be suspect!! I also used to have earlobes, but no more, they stitched them to my face. After reading the horror stories, I feel fortunate that I am not worse off, and I am praying that my face does not get worse with time. I have learned a lesson not to believe the info-mercials, that is for sure. I think my first clue was on nip-tuck when one of the Doctors said that if you use the muscle to tighten the face, when the muscle loostens, the surgery fails. Well, there you go! I found out that too late. I am sure there are a lot of us just waiting for a class action! I would like them exposed and for all of us who are unhappy to get our money back. I do not want to go back to THAT surgeon for repairs, that is for certain!

"I have a scar in the middle of my neck, I have no idea why. They said it was from the wrap, and did not seem very concerned. " I HAVE THE SAME and they told me the SAME THING!!! Also, the numbness with the face/ears..etc....the same with me...we are looking and trying for a class action...let me know how to reach you and we will keep you posted. My surgery was 1.5 yrs ago
