I opted for an I guide neck lift which 2 as apparently minimally invasive. I was left with significant bruising and swelling after the procedure. I am now 2 years down the line and wish I had never had it. My neck has been lift with a hideous pocket of skin which is very ageing. I am more self conscious

Welcome to the community and thanks so much for offering your opinion of your doctor.

It would be great if you could give us a little more detail about your experience, like why you had the surgery, your tips for getting good results, pros/cons, and info on the recovery process.

Our community members especially love seeing photos from before, during, and after — a realistic look at what they can expect. Photos grab the attention of the community and encourage more support for you.

As a community manager, I get requests all the time from other members who want me to to keep encouraging people to share their experiences, which are so helpful for others considering these procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.

Hi
Unfortunately your experience with this surgeon doesn't surprise me. Did he offer any solutions at all for the problem?

There is a U.S. tv proram called "Botched" on which accepted candidates get a plastic surgery makeover. The surgeons fix botched surgeries with consumate skill. I have never seen a non-American patient on it, but you could check on their website. Alas, you have been botched.

Hello, I'm so sorry, I thought I had replied to your comment. Well, I did on my phone, but now realise it didn't post. I watch botched, I think it's a great show, and makes you realise how many surgeons talk the talk, but once they've taken you're money they lose interest in you. Sad :-(

This guys a Dr.?

A very eminent one at that (apparently). So disappointed in the whole thing.

Absolutely agree he is not interested in dissatisfaction. He ruined my nose and didn’t receive any after care. The second he has your money he doesn’t care! Can you private mail me as I am taking it further. I’ve had 5 years of hell and all because of this man.

This is the result of 'minimally invasive' surgery. Apparently a couple of days off work with minimal bruising. W's definitely not the case. ..

Dr shoaib has performed eye lift surgery on me on 2013 which I was delighted with so much so around 8 months later I went back for a mini facelift and I am totally delighted I look and feel 10 years younger

Hi, I didn't take your comments as flippant at all, it's not a problem. I did go back, however he recommended more inidba treatments, which were another few hundred pounds, and they had no effect. Even my husband says it's worse now than before the operation. I feel so embarrassed by the whole thing, I couldn't have been more disappointed.

These treatments should have been free of charge and I doubt they would have made any difference why not go and seek legal advice ?

Well lucky you.
I was left with huge unsightly and misplaced scars after encountering this surgeon. Several surgeons I saw for second opinions have been visibly shocked. One so much so he initially refused to believe the surgery had been performed by a qualified surgeon.

How are you? Please post an update so we know you are ok!

Hi thanks so much for your lovely post. I have tentatively looked into having a further surgery to repair the damage - just trying to find the cash now!!
December 8, 2015
Thanks for posting quickly. It certainly looks like something happened during your procedure. I hope you can get it repaired soon. I see others have had bad problems after procedures with this PS. It is such a shame you have had to continue to deal with this. Please be sure to take proper steps to insure your health. Be well!

hi I too have had a dreadful experience with this PS. I have had a first round of corrective surgery with a new surgeon on one of my eyes and I am going back for my second in a few days time. My new plastic surgeon expressed surprise at the quality of the work and I am gutted I went to Mr Shoaib in the first place - I plan on writing up the story soon as have a years worth of photos
