“Board Certified ENT, So Why is He Doing Plastic Surgery? - Marshfield, MA”

Used to work for a Real plastic surgeon......none of these things Should have happened!

There are some who will operate on anyone!!

I worked for a real plastic surgeon. None of these things Should have happened!

Thank you soooooo much for posting all this. I am canceling an apt I had for this wednesday with dr Ishoo in HIS surgery center in marshfield, MA!

I think people should know the truth!

Awful. Doctors take the Hippocratic oath 'First of all harm none'. I suspected that some of them didn't have plastic surgery credentials. Reminds me of the timeI blew 3000.on a Thermage treatment, and the doctor kept zapping me with this electric current and they had to hold me down. They need their licenses revoked.

Hey, Mcken58! JenL you are so right they need to have their licenses revoked!!! "drs" like these have to be reported. Join the movement. We can get laws changed, to keep "drs" who are not American Board Certified Plastic Surgeons from performing plastic surgery. If they have a Specialty in Cosmetic Surgery, that means they took a class. Also Facilities need to be accredited for the protection of the American people who have succumb to their slick advertising.

It is clear that LSL advertisements do not represent the actual facts concerning their procedure. I suggest contacting the channel that airs these ads, and informing them of the harm being done by LSL. A threatened boycott of other advertisers on that channel might cause the channel to cease allowing people to be misled. False advertising is a criminal offense, and I think the FCC should also be informed.

Interestingly enough, I filed a formal complaint with the FTC 2 years ago and had no reply from them, but this is a great idea!

your review saved me. so thank you. best wishes to you.

I would contact wcvb, wbz or whdh to follow up on this.

An ENT doing a face-lift

How terrible!!!

Mine was an ENT "specializing in cosmetic surgery" if you can imagine. He cut nerves in my face that won't heal. Companies like this should not be able to be operating and they have probably damaged more people than they have helped. We've got to KEEP approaching the powers that be to get things changed.

Dear McKen58, As you know, I am very sorry for the experience that you had with LSL. However, I want to make sure you don't throw out the baby with the bath water. As you know, I have been an advocate for you and patients like you on this website, who did not receive the "revolutionary procedure" promised. In fact, I have helped a number of former LSL patients in performing their revision. One of the reasons I became involved was because I didn't want my specialty (Facial Plastic Surgery) to be painted with the same brush as LSL; LSL is a company, and the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery has no affiliation nor does it advocate LSL or its practices in any way. As you may know, becoming a Facial Plastic Surgeon first requires residency and board certification in Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, a highly competitive and highly sought after regional surgical subspecialty of the head and neck; facelifts techniques are taught and performed in Otolaryngology residencies. LSL is a company with a specific corporate structure, corporate practices, advertising, and sales techniques. Although I cannot speak to the individual skill of your Surgeon, I can say that the result and experience you received have more to do with the marketing, sales, practices, and patient care of the company that advertises a "revolutionary procedure" than the specialty of your Surgeon. LSL hires both Facial Plastic Surgeons and General Plastic Surgeons to perform procedures that they recruit with company marketing. There are complaints on this website about both Facial Plastic Surgeons and Plastic Surgeons who have performed LSL. This does not excuse your Surgeon in any way for your unhappiness, because I feel that there is a huge degree of culpability amongst Surgeons who witness practices they may or may not agree with, yet allow them to occur. I have spoken to a number of LSL Surgeons who left the company over disagreements with the way the practice of medicine was conducted. The reference to a Facial Plastic Surgeon as an "ENT" is a historical putdown by General Plastic Surgeons in a turf war that has been waged since Sir Harold Delf Gillies (a pioneer in Facial Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngologist- Head and Neck Surgeon)first picked up a scalpel. In fact a high percentage of most General Plastic Surgeons training relates to abdominal surgery, hernia repairs, hand surgery, and a very small percentage of facial surgery. From a TV or celebrity perspective, Dr. Paul Nassif, who appears on RHWOBH is, like me, a Facial Plastic Surgeon. Again, I am sorry for your experience, but please don't blame the specialty for the behaviors of the company.

Sounds like LSL....another salesmand telling you what you want to hear to get his commission...

BJGawle, I do not work nor have I ever worked for LSL. Please read my posts on this subject.
