Gina, This was 10 years ago when I lived in that area. I would NEVER go to this man again but if you like him, go to him. I dont have pictures because it was years ago. I am still having issues with some of the problems he left me with and because of that I have been afraid to even try more surgery.to correct the problems .Also there are two fairly detailed complaints plus one that was apparently erased. For all I know, you work for him. This is just a forum to let others know what can happen-use the information in whatever way you choose.

He's very charming initially. He became very rude when I said I was upset about the result. I also have a deep scar under my chin which pulls the skin at an odd angle so it is very obvious. He didnt think it was a problem, of course.
I am no longer in that area. If I do anymore work, I will try to get someone in the Bay area...

Another unhappy patient?? Maybe we are just too demanding?? LOL!!!

In response to Dr Bonaldi saying he would be happy to discuss my surgery concerns, when I tried to discuss the he was very dismissive and told me I had
a "great result" and he had even hasked his people in his office and they agreed. Since he pays the staff in that office, thier agreement doesnt surprise me.
My particular concern is that I now have one attached ear lobe and one unattached,making it look odd to wear earrings so I havent worn any now in 10 years!!! He didnt think it was a significant issue.
Also when I tried to show him pictures of me at a younger age, he was uninterested. Most of my friends said thier surgeons requested those pictues. Dr. Bonaldi doesnt even want to look at them.
I am relating MY experiences and I would not recommened this doctor based on his skill level and willingness to fix the problems.

OF course he maintained that he did a lot of work underneath, I have my doubts. I didnt do enough research and I learned a valuable lesson.
That said, I'd like to have it redone but I'm very worried that I will again get a bad result.
