Pictures are with a thousand words
Dr Leonard Hochstein in Miami Florida
Think twice before facelift.
Basically gave him my money. Worked 2 jobs to this for my self. These were my results horrible and he should be ashamed I can do anything about this.
I have to live with this Frankenstein job of a face lift
I also lost a chunk of hair.
The worse bed side manner.!!!!!!!

Response from Dr. Hochstein:
Every surgery involves some kind of scarring and; although most people heal well, there is no way to know prior to the surgery who will scar badly. Seeing the post op picture, you can see the incision is closed perfectly meaning I did my part in setting her up for success. I never tried to convince her that everything was OK, On the contrary, I actually agreed with her & offered to redo it for free. All she had pay for the anesthesia since that is out of my hands.

This is so visible, I can’t- keep my hair up at all. Have to keep my hair down. This has been the worse experience.
I counted on dr. Hochstein to live up to name.! He see me as guinea pig, ten decided to tell me come back wen i told I’m about my scar being visible.
I went in to remove sutures, wen I did the medical assistant removed my sutures and was socked wen she removed my bandages as noticed the huge piece of har that fell out, she was such In shock
She called in the office manger.
She then just said the dr. Will call you. That’s it!!!
That’s all I got. After everything I was assured I took his word. I had 100 questions he answered like I had should never worry and that I was in good hands. If you look at my ear yo can see that it looks cuffed in the ear (bend) it’s just a horrific gross malpractice. Just nothing I can do about it. Because they make sure they cover there asses. So he continues to operated and just say oh well there’s nothing I can do. Unless you come back and pa 1,500 toward anesthesia. WHY do you think I would go ack to you I said!!! You sold are done it right the 1st time.its my face!!!! My god have some compassion!! Wold you let your wife go through this experience and deal with hiding and knot able to go to family get togethers. I truly mean this real self readers beware of the sacrifice your willing to give.

I waited 1 year before I posted,! I felt I had to write my reviews. I didn’t want to write with the anger I had.
Please excuse my typo through my story.
I also want to mention I’m not a rich person I work two jobs to gift myself a facelift.
I’ve had breast argumentation rhinoplasty Brazilian butt lift tummy tuck. Te best doctor that truly cared and never yes me. They told the reality of my surgeries and what can happen.

Thank you for posting this. Even his attitude towards you via his response is condescending. The fact that he wanted you to pay for anesthesia so he could correct his own mistake is appalling.

I’m sorry you are unsatisfied with your results. It sounds like you’ve had many interventions. While expressing disappointment with the outcome perhaps all of us who elect such procedures consider discussing concerns directly with the actual surgeon prior to posting specifics to allow time for potential compensatory measures. Should pattern of emerge of many individuals reporting similar results, more objective conclusions may be drawn. The first step for all of us is to do our due diligence in performing background checks, assessing prior outcomes and having realistic expectations of our outward appearance - aesthetically pleasing is not synonymous with everyone’s definition of perfect. I wish you well in your healing and happiness.

wow I have read this over and over and to my understanding is that this girl should't have reported what happened to her? I think everyone has the right to know as how this doctor messed up.

I understand. Might be helpful to read more about what can potentially occur after posting specific unfavorable comments against an establishment or person.

In other words and to spell it out more clearly, when commenting on sires such as these and others that allow consumers to post reviews, it’s probably best to state things as objectively as possible. Such as, I’ve had other procedures done before and was pleased with the outcome,I was expecting such-&-such from this procedure, the results I experienced were - whatever - far below my expectations. The doctor was or was not as responsive to my concerns as I’d have hoped. There are slander and libel laws and we need to be mindful of these to protect everyone’s best interests including our own

realistic expectations is for the Doctor to admit that he made a mistake and not to charge her again! and fix it.
