I’m Happier with my Results Than I Thought Possible!

I am a 51 year old mother of two. I had a deep plane face and neck lift, temporal brow lift, buccal fat removal and CO2 laser resurfacing on my face, neck and chest. From my initial consultation to my two month post op appointment, each visit with Dr. Sadati and his staff was welcoming and exciting.

I knew going into this journey that there would be uncertainty with what to expect and a little bit of fear of the unknown. The first interaction I had with Dr. Sadati, he eased my nerves with his polite and professional introduction and kind smile. He's so great at explaining every detail, even before you ask questions. He seems to take the approach of 'knowledge is comfort' and so he ensures you know what is currently happening with the anatomy of your face and how the surgery will improve your appearance. He takes the time to explain how we age, what happens to our face and in what order. He goes into great detail regarding the surgery itself and what the end result will be. He uses a hands on demonstration to show you the movement of your face highlighting what it is you want to change, providing a visual understanding. Dr. Sadati is honest and will tell you if you are not a candidate for a procedure you are consulting about, possibly advising you to wait. He may also suggest something you didn't take into consideration (because you just don't know.)

He is an artist. He is a sculptor and a painter and with these talents, he is able to artistically sculpt the face without making you look pulled, stretched, weird or different. His surgical approach aligns with a very natural appearance as opposed to a filtered and perfected result. In my research, I noticed all of his patients still looked like themselves following surgery and not different or like a distant relative. Quite honestly, just better.

The protocol leading up to the day of surgery is very specific to ensure a smooth, comfortable and quick recovery. From two weeks prior to your surgery to 10 weeks following, they provide very detailed instructions and a calendar that outlines what you do each day (and it is important to follow the instructions as they help to avoid bruising, swelling, scaring and any discomfort that may come into play). For me personally, I had no pain, which was wild to wrap my head around. Honestly. There was no real pain at all where the incisions were and I was really just uncomfortable having to keep the wrap on my head and having to sleep on my back as I am a side sleeper. No sharp, shooting, stabbing, burning pain of any kind. Currently, I am 3 months post op and I am still a little numb in areas but it's nothing notable. I would absolutely do this again without hesitation and only with Dr. Sadati.

In my search for the right doctor, I had a couple consultations with other surgeons in the area as well as a telehealth consult with a doctor in Arizona. I circled back to Dr. Sadati because of his qualifications, immense knowledge, honesty and overall demeanor which encompasses his bedside manner. He is very down to earth yet clearly an expert in his field. He is highly respected by so many doctors in the industry. He has a calming presence and made me feel at ease every time I came into the office. His social media account is very educational, informative and engaging as he takes time to address and interact with his followers. This surgery is far more serious in my opinion than any other elective cosmetic surgery because it's your face. It's everything. You cannot hide under a baggy sweatshirt if you are not satisfied with the end result. The doctor you choose to modify your face has to be the best in his trade. Dr. Sadati is a gift to all of us!
