It seriously looks like I've have nothing done

ORIGINAL POST

Nope...I Don't Recommend

The office was friendly enough I guess. I did feel like the girl asking questions was not very real. I think she's a nurse not sure. Just felt a little routine.

My issue is with my outcome. My neck was only tight for about 3 weeks. Then it began to drop, the skin. My surgery was in November of 2023. I was very pleased up until the 3 week mark.
Now it's been 6 months later and my jowels are also back. It seriously looks like I've have nothing done. Are spending thousands of dollars.
Dr. Mendelson offered to"fix"my neck at the 6 week follow up. He would do what he called a W plasty, which is cutting the letter W into the front of my neck, remove the excess skin, sew together and I will have a scar. Also the cut he made around my left ear still has a pucker, but he said it will go away.. well it hasn't. I hesitated to leave a review but I'm so upset that I went through this and spent all this money for absolutely nothing. I know face and neck lifts last about 10 years average... Maybe less time. But 3 weeks and now 6 months and still have my turkey neck and jowels.

I'm sorry that you had such a bad experience, I completely understand you because I had a bad experience myself. I can't understand how plastic surgeons play with the appearance and health of patients, when they are paid to do their job perfectly because they should be doing aesthetics. As a completely healthy woman, after deep place face lift and neck lift surgery, I experienced severe complete necrosis of the skin of my face and neck, so I can fully understand your dissatisfaction.
Dr Tunc Tiryaki is brilliant. He operates in London and Istanbul.
I’m sorry this was so underwhelming in terms of results. This is my fear also because this is a very invasive and expensive procedure. We expect to get rid of the neck folds and jowls which is my expectation also. I’m booked for 2 weeks time and I just pray it goes well and I get the results to help me gain back some of my confidence. My problem areas are the same as yours and it is because of weight loss mainly and obviously ageing. As I’m 60 now I have saved and hoped and prayed for this procedure for so long. I’ve been desperately unhappy. I can’t afford to pay for corrective surgeries. And have ugly scarring is so bad.
