I’m extremely bitter sitting here reading all of these amazing reviews and not being able to relate in the slightest, Instead I’m left with devastating results. I’ve never had plastic surgery before, this was my first ever experience, and it’s been a nightmare. I went in for what i presumed was simple procedure, chin lipo. I wanted to finally correct my biggest insecurity, but really It just feels like I’ve swapped one problem for another. The entire process from start to finish, and the results following were not pleasant. I saw Stanley for about 5 minutes the day of the procedure to mark my face, and did not see him before OR after my surgery was over. I wasn’t told how to wear the face garments, how to put it on, take it off, how tight it should be, how to sleep, etc. The only thing i was told after waking up from the anesthesia was by the anesthesiologist, who so kindly told me i should “probably consider trying to lose weight” because i was “snoring so much while asleep” completely unnecessary?? I’m here for liposuction, you think I don’t know that?? Once i took the garment off i noticed RIGHT AWAY there were indents and lines on my jaw area. This scared me because there’s no way it could be scar tissue or fibrosis so early on. But i tried to remain calm and trust the process. As time went on and swelling subsided, i noticed no improvement in my face, and started seeing lines and indents in my neck and chin, a sort of cobra neck look. When my follow up appointment came around i was very anxious to see Stanley and talk about my concerns. I had pictures and videos ready to show him, and he completely shut me down, talked over me, dismissed my concerns, and took no accountability for his (what i now know) lazy, rushed work. (Side note- I remember being worried that my surgery time was 4pm, because i was clearly his last patient of the day and wouldn’t be surprised if he was exhausted and might perform this procedure half a**.) I knew in the moment of his defensiveness, unwillingness to admit there being an issue, that my concerns were valid. At one point he even told me to just “not have anyone lay in my lap” and then they won’t notice…. He made it seem like it wasn’t a big deal, when at this point it’s brought me the most sadness and depression I’ve ever experienced, i just felt so hurt that he couldn’t even do as little as acknowledge the permanent deformities he’s left me with forever. I’ve now had to seek revision surgery that is double the price, hard to do, and let’s be real, probably won’t ever be the same again. It’s taken me two (nightmarish) years to write this review because I’ve contemplated whether or not i should share this, and the mental toll it takes to relive this experience and take pictures of my face is so difficult, but i believe others have a right to know what they could be getting themselves into, that way they aren’t left with results that could have them feeling suicidal thoughts, or feelings of hopelessness. This may sound dramatic but idc. Imagine being 25, having your first ever plastic surgery procedure, and you end up paying to have your face and neck permanently deformed. PS- I’m certain in my opinion of this procedure being performed lazily because i cannot find ANYONE who has had results remotely like mine from chin liposuction, I’ve searched up and down to find support from people with a similar experience but can’t seem to find anything. I see so many women happy with their chin liposuction, and they look so amazing, and i just wish so badly i had that. Think twice people, it’s not worth it.
