Consultation Review: he seemed distracted during the consultation

ORIGINAL POST

Dr. Mascaro Seemed Distracted During the Consultation

I have had three Skype consultations with Dr. Mascaro, to discuss different procedures. I feel that I would be in great hands as far as a lip lift goes. But, I have noticed the Dr. seemed a bit abrupt with me and distracted. I have no doubts that his popularity has soared because of realself and other avenues with people pleased with his work, but I get the impression he is pressed for time.
I have a pretty complicated revision as I want to revise my nose as well as a poorly done lip lift, and Dr. Mascaro did not feel he would be the right person for the rhinoplasty (which I suspected), and appreciated his honesty.

Hi can I ask who ??he recommended thank you
He didn't recommend anyone.
Hi Pachamama, I just wanted to give you a name of a doctor that has a great reputation for revision rhinoplasty. His name is Dr Guyuron. I have not used him yet but will go to Ohio to do a consultation soon. He was suggested to me by another plastic surgeon here in LA. I hope that helps.
He is good--went to him for my lip lift scar revision but he could only do so much with what I had to work with, due to being botched so badly in Houston, TX.
If I were you I wouldn’t have the lip lift surgery. If he’s pressed for time it obvious that he’s not spending enough time with you to go over options and to make you feel comfortable about changing your face.
My experience has been a negative one with him and I am now paying the price. I should have heeded those red flags I felt
Can you let me know what the experience was? I am scheduled for a consult
I am curious to know as well. Did you have a bad lip lift experience with Dr. M?
I am curious to know as well. My friend had her lip done by I'm and she looks amazing! I am planning to have my lip done by him as well. I never heard a bad review.
Please get back with me. I need to speak to someone else not happy. Thx. But inbox
I just had my surgery today and I love how it looks. Nothing but good things to say about Dr. M and his staff.
If your not going to tell the whole story then stop giving these hints because that's not helpful at all.
Same here if you not going to tell the story then please say nothing. Because these hints are not helpful.
Just give it time to heal.
This has nothing to do with healing it is beyond that point.
I too am one of those people that was not comfortable with him in person, and Should have known better and not continued on with the surgery. Red flags!!! I was correct in my thinking. I was not happy with my surgery. I went back to talk about a revision, he was very condescending. I was going to go through with the revision for $1400. But his attitude made me change my mind, and I didn't go through with it. I am now very depressed, because it looks like I have had nothing done. I felt bullied. I have Read about another girl in California that had a revision for free because she wasn't happy, that's the way a good doctor should be. Dr. M told me I got exactly what I asked for. I did not get what I asked for, my philtrum is too long, my upper lip is no bigger than it was before, and if I showed you a picture you would think it was before surgery!!!!!
The pain, pressure, pulling, numbnessess, and problems that I am now left with has had a horrific impact on me. He does get quite condescending. I knew immediately something was wrong and I am devastated what was done to me
Exactly Condescending if you are not happy. He just shrugged me off, as did Lauren.
Notcart can I DM you?
Botchedsurg, please share your experience with photos, either here or privately. I messaged you. I am sorry this happened to you. Those of us who haven’t had our surgery yet need this information. I hope things improve for you soon.
Was there a complication during surgery ??? Did you address those issues with him ??
Ugh! That is horrible! These procedures can be so traumatizing! I'm sorry to hear you went through it and feel like there is no change.
Same here Had consult on skype scheduled He said he had an emergency surgery Ok I can understand I rescheduled He was rushed and didn't listen o my concerns and instead wanted to do something I hadn't asked for I had the impression he is making hay while sun Hines and punching out lip lifts left and right Real self certainly seem to be his advertiser Im looking elsewhere even tho his office has called twice trying to schedule me for surgery It feels like an assembly line Just my 02 He seems to do nice work but s do many other docs at same price
He's getting his 15 minutes of fame. He seemed abrupt, and had not listened to what I wanted either, but instead to what he wanted. Karma has no menu. You get served what you deserve. Time.................
