Dr. Steinsapir Gave Me my Life Back

ORIGINAL POST

Dr. Steinsapir Gave Me my Life Back

WORTH IT
I had a terrible experience with a different Beverly Hills plastic surgeon who inserted standard large cheek implants in my face (we agreed to small-to-medium at my consult). Needless to say, my cheeks were extremely overfilled, I had an undesirable surgical look, my surgeon had no interest in any follow-up evaluations, and my life grinded to a halt. I was simply existing but not living. I am so grateful I found Dr. Steinsapir. The level of professionalism demonstrated by his office, his endearing bedside manner, and his impressive technical expertise are standout qualities that I never once experienced with any plastic surgeon. He simply has a passion for quality work that comes across immediately. And he is ahead of his peers in terms of innovative solutions to plastic surgery mishaps from other surgeons. I’m four weeks post-op with the removal of the overly large cheek implants and replacement with orbital rim implants. I’m still swollen (but socially presentable). Even with my existing swelling (which is normal at this stage), I can honestly say that I’ve never looked better in my life. In fact, I have a natural look that enhances my natural features. By contrast, I looked like a surgical disaster at this stage with the previous surgeon (a look that never went away until Dr. Steinsapir addressed the situation). I will never allow any other surgeon to touch my face besides Dr. Steinsapir. I hope people who have experienced surgical mishaps that led to detrimental physical and psychological consequences can find solace that a light at the end of the tunnel is a possibility with the right doctor (for me, that’s Dr. Steinsapir, indisputably). I will always be eternally grateful to Dr. Steinsapir and his caring and professional staff.

Hello, thank you for your story. I am now going through a lot of trauma ( emotional) because of a cheek implant that became infected and both had to be removed (10 years later!) Anyway, I am working closely with my PS and not sure if I will need to get new ones to look normal again. Can you tell me the length of time for having your implants in and then was the change of implants done in one surgery? Do you think you could post some pics that just show the cheeks and how it looked before compared to new ?
You were a pleasure to have in my office. I am so happy that I was able to give you back your life. Making a difference for patients is what I care so much about. Please know that I am always available for you. Faith and I so enjoyed sharing this experience with you. Regards to Mom.
Could you possibly post some before and after photos (even cropped ones for privacy) as it would help us see what you are taking about and also helps to authenticate the review. Thank you!
