“$4,800 POORER and I Look Exactly As I Did Before”
Spent: $4,800 in Little Falls, NJ
I had the procedure the day before Thanksgiving 06. There is way to much BS involving my experiance to try and list it all here. However to make it short...had the surgery by a physician that had good reviews by another patient...went back ONE week later TO GET THE STITCHES OUT???...a person that was just learning how to take stitches out actually took mine out, well partially...within two weeks had red lines running up my legs and stitches hanging out of my head....thank GOD my husband had the sense to make me go to the emergancy room...had a staph infection....a potentially deadly blood infection...my incesions started spreading (did they take them out to soon? I don't know)...I now have awful scars behind my ears...THANK GOD its not as bad in front...this Thanksgiving it will be one year since my surgery. i AM $4,800 POORER & I look exactly as I did before...saggy neck and all....only now I do not have ear lobes...they are attached to my face bordered by nice little scars. ONE OF LSL SCAMS IS to have you hold your chin down when they take the before pictures...then hold your head higher for the after... the after are also taken just a few months after the surgery while your face is still swollen and tight!!! Oh by the way...never saw the doctor again after my surgery....he did not even make an appearence when I had my stitches taken out...and he is no longer in the NJ office.

I see they finally posted my beautiful results from my LSL. Sorry for the sarcassim but I have been dealing with LSL sister company Scientific Image Center Management all day. Yes they have another company/division that deals with disgruntled patients! I turned LSL into the NJ BBB and they are telling a pack of lies. They also told BBB that I signed a form that clearly states "there is a chance that you may not be completely satisfied with the outcome of your procedure" How about scarring that could of been prevented if the surgeon had taken more time...oh yeah I forgot he only had an hour to perform my surgery...he had two more surgeries to perform that same day and I was the third one he had done...poor guy, he was in a hurry to get home to his family for thanksgiving which was the next day....so why not cut a few corners (no pun intended of course) I have had several woman who have had problems e-mail me IF YOU HAVE THE SCARRING BEHIND THE EARS LIKE I DO OR OTHER PROBLEMS PLEASE E-MAIL ME WE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT THEM GETTING BY WITH THIS. I HAVE PROOF THAT THEY ARE DOING A VERY POOR SURGERY THAT COULD BE AVOIDED!!! {edited email address} Editor note: you must join RealSelf so you can be contacted privately with doctor recommendations and feedback.
Dr. Cavaliere did my surgery on March 17, 2010. He completely destroyed my face. He pulled me too tight and left horrible scars across my temples where incisions should not be made. I went to another board certified surgeon and paid $1900 for a revision. He wasn't able to correct the scars completely, but he made a tremendous difference. By the date of your comment, you must have already had your surgery. How did it turn out?? How was your level of pain during surgery? Mine was 12 on a scale of 1 to 10.
