Haven't gone for more surgery, but got 2 vials of Sculptra
WORTH IT$3,416
Drs. and I decided against more surgery, because it can't necessarily fix what bothers me (fatty perotid glands). But, I did get 2 vials of Sculptra in December, which took awhile to schedule and then the wait was long, but it was free, so you can't beat that. Love Mt. Sinai Residency program!

Went today (11/11/22) for Consultation & scheduled surgery for Dec. 22
It's been years since I had my facelift and blepharoplasty and, although I think it still looks good, I have some sagging skin around my neck, so I have revision surgery scheduled for Dec. 22 this year with Dr. Zibogha I think her name is (current resident). They still practice under Dr. Taub, who is amazing, too (and i you went to him privately it would be 10x the currently $3800 the surgery is). The consult fee is still $200 but just so you know it took me 5 months to get an appointment, but then just 5 weeks to schedule surgery and got my bloodwork done same time today, so I'm ready to look younger! For those of you who don't mind paying more and getting the exact Dr. who did my first 2 surgeries, his name is Dr. Eric Jablonka and he is practicing in Virginia currently. Google him. He really is exceptional!

Can't believe it's been 3 years and 4 months since; 2 women getting theirs this week, though!
Hi everyone:
I enjoy hearing from you and sorry that sometimes this site doesn't tell me I have a message. I did go for a consult for fillers with a woman resident (think Dr. Pasic?) in October, but made the sin of not asking for her contact info and although she said she'd call when they got some fillers in, she hasn't and now I think it's Dr. Chavignon (guy) doing his 3 months. That said, a woman from Chicago and another from Hawaii came in together and had theirs Monday and Tuesday. Waiting to hear from them, but chances are they're sleeping it off. Seems everyone else has been camera shy, but dozens if not over 100 people have gone to Mt. Sinai resident clinic for surgeries since I posted and all were happy. In fact, a woman who had her facelift around time I had my 2nd surgery is having more done this spring. Well, best of luck to everyone. I still remember a few weeks after I had it done when I could first put makeup on I didn't recognize myself (in a good way!) I still remember it as one of the happiest days of my life-- ever! It's amazing how looking good makes you feel good. Now if I could lose the 10 lbs. I put on over the holidays life would be perfect! Haha. The photo below was taken with zero makeup on at the beach 2 weeks ago (in winter). So, yes, with makeup I could look a lot better, but what you see is what you get. I think it still looks fine! Oh, and some of you wanted a before picture. Sadly I found one! It's my drivers' license, that they never seem to update. Ugh. Hate that photo! Ann

Hi! Do you know of anyone ho ha had both face and bodywork done at the same time through the resident clinic? Is there a limit to the amount of procedures you can have at one time?
You look great!
You look great!

@BPLa they explained it as one area, can do at one time, face area:FL, NL, NO, UPPER LOWER BLEPH, Chin Lipo, neck Lipo, Chin implant. Prbly fat graft to face. Idk about nose job. Some procedures take more time, so the amount of General anesthesia increase.
They said when l asked: BMI under 30, can do MM, Tummy tuck, breast lift, implant and body Lipo.
Face one time, body another. Still too heavy to do bodywork. But small face procedure prbly ok, fat graft to face w/ body work. Depends on how,many procedures you want done in one area.
Also it is price wise better to have more done than one procedure. Combo procedure like FL,NL, NECK LIPO, BL, CHIN IMPLANT is 1k more than if l just did FL.
Go for consult, it's worth it. Dr. CHAVANON IS THERE TILL MARCH END. HE BE BACK from charity PS trip last wk of Jan. So don't go next week.

Hi there, been a long time. Checking to see if you did any body work? I heard about smart lipo and wanted to see if the clinic does that? any clue? I made an appt for mid Feb. Talk soon, hope this finds you well.

@auntiemarshie,
Nope, not yet. Gained weight 165lb. So l want to go down under my wanted weight, 140 lb get it done then go back up to 150. Maybe next year, the resident l liked,she 'll be chief then. My goal.

I did hear from someone who had face and body work done at the same time. For personal reasons I had to push my consultation back but if you'd like to talk, we can.
September 21, 2019
I’m thinking of using Mount Sinai and would love your feedback. Thank you
September 25, 2019
Please let me know what they tell you. I want a face left and hope to share after care with someone. I’ll be coming from Texas. Thank you !
January 23, 2019
Good to hear from you PradaGal!! You still look great!! I haven't had any additional work since my facelift in July 2017. I plan to still get some work done to my jowls, under chin, and frown lines when I am better financially.
February 6, 2019
Chicago & Hawaii girls are on the mend, looking good and are, VERY HAPPY!!
March 6, 2019
I’m on week two of my revisional facelift, chemical peel and lipo from the GREAT doctors at Mt Sinai. clinic. I’m happy to answer any questions. Feel free to inbox me a message .

tw1958, hi. Would you Mind updating me on who is performing sx’s at Mt. Sinai at this time? My sister and I went to get a consult a couple of years ago, but the surgeon didn’t feel confident for doing my work I needed done. I was horribly disappointed. I’m trying to remember what exactly was said in the consultation. Thank you
March 15, 2019
Dr Vicent Chavanon is there till the end of March. Don’t know yet who’s coming in next but make another appointment. All doctors are different with what they are comfortable with but they can schedule a senior, more seasoned doctor to assist with the surgery. That might work out well for you. Good luck!
March 20, 2019
Yeah! Message me and tell me how happy you are a month and a half later when makeup covers bruising and you look 20 years younger!
March 20, 2019
Wow! First time I checked this in awhile and sounds like some people are as happy as I was! I need some fillers and botox now (I have some forehead wrinkling and my lips are downturning a little on the corners), though, and went for consult in Oct. and the woman dr. said she'd call me "next filler/botox day" and never did. I didn't call back, but am putting it on my list of things to do now! I am not due for another surgery for years, but need some primping before my June vacation!

I recently went to a double board certified surgeon here in Saratoga for Botox. When I explained what I had done at Icahn school of surgery ($3,500) he said he had trained there. He said it would have cost
me $30,000 if he had done it! Still extremely happy! Thanks Pradagal for all your support!
