How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

After a lot of trepidation, self assessment,...

After a lot of trepidation, self assessment, caution and many other things I decided to bite the bullet and try to get nicer lips. I have never had any shape to my lips so this was something I had always yearned for but never had. You hear a lot of horror stories about things that can go wrong, Dr's doing what they want ( Much like lot of hairdressers ) to fill their pockets and not what you ask, but after doing a lot of soul searching and research I found Dr Fugo in Newburgh NY. I was a little weary due to the fact he was situated in Newburgh NY ( For anyone who is not familiar with area you're not missing much ) but the reviews were wonderful about him. I couldn't find anything negative and one of my good friends is a Dr so he knew how and where to look.

I sent a message inquiring about lip enhancement to Dr Fugo and much to my surprise heard back from him a matter of hours later. Well articulated and very informative reply at that. I decided I would follow up with a request for a consultation to evaluate my options.

I met up with Dr Fugo at his office and was greeted cordially ( Not a common thing when you are talking about Dr's surgeries as a rule of thumb ) by the staff members. Maryellen was wonderful and very helpful. They made me feel like I was part of the furniture and had been there for years.

Within minutes I had my paperwork filled out and was greeted by Dr Fugo who's bedside manner was wonderful and was completely earnest in his endeavor to help me understand my options and how the procedure would transpire.

There was no rushing or time limit. He made every attempt to make sure I had a full understanding of every aspect of lip enhancement. I decided to go ahead that day based on his ability to nullify my concerns and worries.

My lips are very thin so I knew we would use the complete amount he had offered me. I left the office a little sore but otherwise completely in tact and feeling like I had accomplished what I had set out to achieve.

I left the surgery with my lips still very natural looking with some definite plumpness and a nicer, softer, fuller shape. Just what I had asked for.

Dr Fugo after hours service is wonderful. I swelled up unimaginably and to the degree that it had affected my ability to breath through my nose. I decided that the swelling was not in my tongue or throat so I believed I was ok. Just to calm myself though I did call my Dr freind so as not to appear a "Drama Queen" and he said the same thing.

I sent Dr Fugo a message to which he replied quickly and in a manner that was completely reassuring. I followed his instructions to a T and within two days I was looking much better. Thank goodness for ice is all I can say!

The important things to me when choosing a Dr are as follows"

Accredited Dr Fugo is
Cost Very competitive
Bedside Manner Wonderful
Experience in my particular type of procedure Years
Did he listen to all concerns and address them Absolutely
Follow up care and support Has been there all the way for me
If something goes wrong does he look after it Absolutely he does

To me Dr Fugo would be someone I would recommend to anyone who is seeking a lip enhancement. Worth every cent.

Personally I would not hesitate to refer Dr Fugo to anyone who is seriously looking for a lip enhancement and wants a Dr who is tentative, understanding, thorough and who has your best interests at heart. I had to give 5 stars for all areas of expertise.
