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.

Post 5~6 Weeks
Here's the updated pics (someone asked :) ).
I still have the same problems, one side of the scar is pretty ugly, and it has bumps on the stitch area (undissolved stich?). It feels hard to the touch. I showed Elisa and she said it can take awhile to heal ( she texted me to check up)....
The rippling of my smile line is getting much better - but it's still horribly noticeable and makes me feel horribly conscious when I smile, so I try not to smile as much.
My nose is still swollen but they're starting to look like my old nose, so no complaint there - it's so normal looking now that even I can't tell I had complained a few months back. So if your nose is looking out of wack - it'll go back to normal soon! :)
The shortened distance between my nose and lips are barely noticeable, it looks the same - even to me, I guess the swelling is really going down now?
All in all, I just want the scars and the rippling to go away so I can just forget that I ever did this.

Not too happy that I look the same after almost $4k + 2 weeks off work...
Before & After side by side. PO 17
Nothings changed, still have wrinkled smile, nose distortion seems to be getting better though.
My scar seems to be getting redder, which is normal...

Post 12th Day
Updated photos. Post 12 - I'm still swollen.
I have really good scars on 1 side. The line is TINY and it blends absolutely perfectly with my nose fold.
But this side's nostril doesn't tuck in as much after the surgery. It flares out more, and there seems to be a weird rippling happening to my smile line when I smile. It's really noticeable and ugly. Never mind the scar, who wouldn't notice that your smile line has wrinkles- like you had a face lift that were pulled weird? I'm hoping this is all because my nose is swollen still...
My bad scar side has no problems when I smile but the scar is going to be thick. There is a gap between the nose fold and where the skin was cut. I think the stitch didn't hold the skin together while it was healing...
My infection is healing up well. I still have bumps but they're going away. I'm almost done with my antibiotics. I can smile -sort of, but 1 side - the side with the bad scar - can still be painful when I open my mouth too wide to eat.
I totally forgot to take the front picture without smiling today, but I'll update you guys in a month or so.

Provider Review
Everyone is very likable and friendly at this office, even the doctor. However, I'm unhappy with how my lip lift turned out.
