painful - Waltham, MA
I have never had so much discomfort in my neck...
I have never had so much discomfort in my neck area as I have now. It's been two years and I feel like someone has their hands around my neck and chocking me at all times.
VANITY is not worth it. People have died from this procedure. I wish I would have reviewed my facts more carefully before doing something so stupid.

experience of my life. I still don't look any better,. I feel like a monster. I still have many wrinkles in my face. My neck is
permanently discolored.
Wouldn't do it again, even for a million dollars.
You really need to see a CERTIFIED
PLASTIC SURGEOn -- not the rent
a surgeons they hire.
If this story is true, then maybe you could be helpful to others and get the name of the doctor.
I'm sorry to have questioned your authenticity - I guess that, personally I would NEVER forget the name of the doctor that you refer to as a "butcher";I'd make sure that the world knew who he is. I am very sorry that after two years you still feel as you do. I ask this in sincerity, did you go back to
them for any kind of retribution - to get your money back, or to have another doctor. I don't know anything about the Waltham office - they are now in Burlington from what I hear. There is a doctor there Dr. James C. Alex, don't know if he was in Waltham?
I have read so many comments on RealSelf where the person does not remember the name of the doctor they say did a terrible job, so could not supply any information that was helpful to anyone- probably took my frustration out on you. I am sorry you got the brunt of it.
Yes, the Doctor's name is Dr. Alex and he was in Waltham. I told Him that I would sue this office.
He agreeed with me that my neck wasn't right. They did pay me the full amount I paid. I am sorry that I did not go and sue them fully -- Little late -- a little hindsight. Thank you for your apology.

I think she is referring to Dr. Alex. He died last month: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/bostonherald/obituary.aspx?n=james-alex&pid=157887419
Hi Sabego -- Welcome to RealSelf and thanks for sharing your experience with the LSL community here. I'm so sorry to hear about your bad results. Did your doctor say anything about your neck loosening up or getting better over time?
