An absolutely horrible experience. She performed surgery in her office which proved more complicated than she first perceived. Excessive bleeding our red and the office put me in an Uber bleeding and extremely elevated blood pressure 20 miles to Sarasota. If you need a wart removed see her, otherwise stay awsy. I have scars which will never heal and everyday I regret my experience with this doctor.
Saw Dr Ross who is the secondary doc in this office. SHE DID A COMPLETE BOTCH JOB and when I went to a New surgeon to fix her screw up, his first words were "did you get this done in Tijuana?" I was brought to tears. If I could have sued her I would have. They offered to have the other dr, Lacerna, do very minor things to try and fix me, but now they won't even call me back. So, a year and a half later I have tons of scarring from insertion points and a huge crater in my stomach. It's unfixable. DO NOT GO TO THIS OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
The tingling you are experiencing may be from the movement in your muscle returning to its prior state before Botox. It's been almost the allotted 3 months of Botox effectiveness, so you may need to have more injected.Thank you for your question.Kate Ross, MD
I suggest about 7 units of Botox and a superficial filler that can be used to recreate your lip line and columella. Best to see an experienced injector in person for best advice. Thank you for your question and for sharing your pictures!Kate Ross, MD
Typically the areas you haven't experienced peeling yet, take a bit longer because by anatomy the skin is thicker. Having said that, if the peel wasn't deep enough you may not peel there at all. Thank you for your question.Kate Ross, MD
I typically tell my patients that the majority of the swelling is gone after about 2 weeks, but the residual can remain for up to 3-6 months after the procedure. If the swelling persists or becomes much worse, I suggest discussing it with your surgeon.Thank you for your question!Kate Ross, MD
It looks like the skin is beginning to slough off and leave the new skin behind. I wouldn't be terribly concerned because it doesn't look to be permanent. Thank you for your question and for sharing your pictures!Kate Ross, MD
