Truly amazing - handled badly placed threads in cheek from another surgeon

Truly Amazing

Mitzmo
WORTH IT
I'm thrilled I found such a talented, caring doctor like Allison Holzapfel. I don't often write reviews but she deserved a glowing report. She handled an unfortunate situation where I had a cheek implant done elsewhere become infected and dislodged inside my mouth. The reason being, I had a hack job from another plastic surgeon's office where Silhouette threads were badly placed in my cheek area and the result was a disaster. Dr Holzapfel fit me in right away and scheduled the removal. The implant became dislodged in an area near my ear which was tricky to remove but I could not believe what an outstanding job she did to get that sucker out and wipe out all the infection. The healing was a breeze and I knew the minute I met her, she was off the charts, whip-smart, and on top of her game. Her bed side manner is outstanding. I went back for my follow up and barely sat in the chair and she walked in the room. She's beyond professional. I've never been so impressed with a doctor!
After I'm fully healed, I'm going back to sign up for a new procedure she does called a "gliding brow lift" and fat transfer to offset the cheek implant removal. If you're in the Cincinnati, Ohio area or looking for an excellent plastic surgeon I highly recommend you check her out.

I hope you are fully healed in body and spirit. Our spirits can be banged up pretty badly when we place undeserved trust in medical professionals. I am sorry that you had the bad experience with the other provider.
I am having a gliding brow lift tomorrow with Dr. Holzapfel and I am wondering if you have returned already for the lift and fat transfer, as well as, how those results are developing. I am writing a review of my lift and will add details.
