Traumatic Chin Implant
I want to start off by saying the nurses and most of the staff are great. I got a chin implant November 2nd one of the worst choices of my life. Dr.Afrooz is very kind and caring in the beginning BUT if you don’t like his work that’s another story. After the 2-3rd day of my surgery I realized the front of my face looked extremely long which I asked about before and Dr.Afrooz assured me it wouldn’t change my front profile. Unfortunately that was not the case at all. After my one week post op I went in crying that I wanted it removed. He stated it looked great and he wouldn’t entertain the idea of removal. I told him I was having panic attacks and couldn’t even go back to work. He told me it was a little problem and I had to keep waiting. I told him the swelling was from the sides not the length of it. He then stated “are you a doctor?” At this point I had already seen other doctors for removal options. I am not a doctor, but I did talk to doctors/ consult with them. Most of them said the original doctor should remove it for free if I’m this unsatisfied this quickly. Throughout the post op appointment he kept trying to get up from his seat to leave. At the end of our conversation he said if I couldn’t wait to remove it maybe we weren’t the correct fit? I seemed to be the correct fit when they charged me 7000 for my procedure. I looked like the character from scream and still do over 3 weeks post op. Additionally I’m having trouble closing my mouth because the implant he placed was so big for my face. I also have numbness still in most of my lower half which usually only lasts 1-2 weeks but I’m already at 3.Thankfully I found another doctor who said my swelling is barley there and it’s safe to remove. He thinks my feeling will come back quicker when the implant is removed because it’s pushing on my nerves which is why I’m still so numb. He also stated the sooner the better before the capsule is formed in 6 weeks. He’s given me high odds that my face will return back since I’m removing it so quickly ( which puts me at 4 week mark). I never even knew sometimes it doesn’t go back or there are complications which I was never informed about like saggy skin, dimpling, or a witches chin. In 5 days I’m getting it removed with the new doctor and hoping to recover fully and move on from this nightmare. I wish I wouldn’t have came to see him, or at least that he would of had the decency to hear his patient and work on solving the issue instead of saying it looked great. I am the patient, this is on my face. I’ll attach pictures of how I looked before and how I look now. Additionally the other doctors I saw also asked if I had seen the implant. I said no? I was never shown anything and last minute 5 minutes before my surgery he stated he was going to give me a longer implant with wings. If I could go back in time I would, not even for the money but for my mental health. I had to start going to therapy because I was so depressed and my panic attacks would not stop. I hope someone reads my review and doesn’t have to go through what I am going through right now. I tried to download pictures, but it kept showing error. I can personally send pictures if anyone needs them.
