Mini face-lift for neck skin & improve profile. Dr Shah was great at answering questions during appts. Mistakes happen, people w/ integrity fix them, but I can't even get a response from this office, let alone anyone fixing the mistake. See the pictures and judge for yourself.

Dr. Responded

In order to be fair, I do want to disclose that Dr. Shah did respond to my letters via email. The letter was very polite but he stated he “can’t refund my money”. We all know he can. I had hoped he would be willing to remedy the situation amicably but at this time I am checking into my options.

He needs to do something!! That doesn't look good on him at all! All he needs too do is fix the ear lobe and clean up the scar! Very sloppy for a plastic surgeon! That's so very unfair to you ! Your beautiful regards but what he did looks like a unlicensed doctor with no training did that!! He should be ashamed and willing to give your money back so you can have the mess he made fixed! There are very good doctors out there and that's a very easy fix ! My heart goes out too you and I hope he steps up and does what's right !! REFUND HER MONEY!! And you need too made a complaint to the medical boards !! Just cant believe a licensed plastic surgeon did that!! Again my friend wish you only the best!

Thank you! In fairness, he did offer to fix my ears for free, but I think I'd be a fool to let him work on me again. This may sound petty, but I am really sad about this. I have wanted to have a nice profile/chin since I was around 20. It took me 30 years to have the money and it was a dream come true that turned into a nightmare.

I don't know how a person is supposed to find a good doctor. Dr. Shah is board certified, has many years of experience, a successful practice, and took a lot of time with me. I'm afraid to choose another surgeon to fix this.

I'm curious, was the scar always like that or is the ear pulling down making it worse?

There was no scar before the surgery. He created the scar and messed up the ears. My understanding is that the ears are not that hard to fix, but no way to fix that scar. The whole thing is a botch job and hard to believe an experienced surgeon did this.

I think you misunderstood me. I was asking if the ear had further descended since surgery. I read something about ears being incorrectly attached to the SMAS that pulls them down. They can fix the ears if there is enough skin to pull the ear lobe up into its correct position and resew the skin. Even if there was a scar, they most likely would be better than what you have. Yes, I know what you mean. I'm not happy with my ears and my doctor also had 30+ years experience and really good detailed pictures.

I am reporting him to state attorney, the board, the Better Business Bureau, and anyone else I can think of. I had hoped to settle this without being a complete [RS bleep]. I don't want to fight or be mean, I just want my to be treated fairly.
