POSTED UNDER Neck Lift REVIEWS

Underpromised and over-delivered - such great results already

ORIGINAL POST

Great Surgeon

WORTH IT
Ok so I’m only 3 weeks post op but figured I should write a review of my experience and be as honest as possible. First off, Dr. Lee underpromised and over-delivered. I can see such great results already. He has an art degree which I appreciated for placement of scars etc. He has been attentive whenever I’ve needed him throughout healing process. The cons which I almost took a star or two off but I don’t want to discount his skills, are the office staff. I’m only 39 and getting a neck lift is a huge deal for me and expensive too. I went through the process of asking quite a few questions and finagling quotes to see what would be the best package for me. In that process, I apparently annoyed the nurse and Gina because the tone did not feel welcoming or warm after that point. I’m disappointed that knowing how nervous I was, neither of them cared to check up on me or even follow up with me since surgery three weeks ago (unless I called in with a question) and never saw any of them on day of surgery. I ended up going with the highest package deal so seems like their time spent with me worked out and spending 18k is a nice chunk of change. For that price I suppose I expected more warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care/concern. All this to say, I still want a couple more things done but I’m hesitant to use this office based on feeling as if I’m an annoyance. Dr. Lee has surpassed my expectations and so far things are looking great (will update my review as healing goes on)

You look fabulous. Have you consulted with or heard anything about dr James Chan in clackamas? I have an appointment with him this week.
July 18, 2022
Yes I have actually. He was always on the speedier side so skipped that and a few of his reviews bothered me. Dr. Lee includes fat transfers with the lifts so that was what sold me

Wow!!! Looks great

Hi. I'm also in your area and looking to get a neck lift. What was the cost?

Never mind. I did just see $18,000. Your results look great! A little more than I'm looking to spend though.

Since we are both in the Portland area can you share with me any doctors you have consulted with or heard about. I am wanting a neck lift. I have my 1st consult this Wednesday with Dr. Chan.

So that was for fat grafting and upper bleph and general anesthesia. I consulted with Dr. Kim who was about the same price but no fat transfers which I really love. Forget the other lady but just as expensive

You’ve had amazing results. Not at all surprised by the lack of concern from the coordinators. It seems to be a culture across the world for plastic surgeons to hire dreadful women with no real understanding of the nuances people who go through when undergoing surgery.

Right??! It’s like cmon can you be empathetic with me if I’m a paying customer

Maybe Dr. Lee would want to know your feedback, and how he might be losing repeat business because of his unfriendly, unwelcoming staff.
July 31, 2022
I would let them know but they’ve never once called to check up on me or ask how they did
August 8, 2022
Can you ask for his direct email? He should have one..I sometimes think the staff attitude is a reflection of the doctor attitude when talking about patients to the staff. If Dr expresses annoyance to the stsff, they think they can treat you as a annoyance, with Drs blessing. Ive seen doctors behave 2 ways - nice to patients face(to get the $$$) and not so nice talking about them to staff..And then you blame the staff and not the Dr, so Dr considers it a win...BUT Dr loses repeat business and referrals, and gets reviews like yours(which we thank you for)..

That’s a good point! Could be true

3 months post

Still feeling good

mrs.peachyevanne
I’m almost 3 months post op and have recovered well. Still have lots of numbness. That can take a year to resolve I’ve heard. Scars look ok so far Fat transfers have died off mostly so that part is disappointing but I have a tiny bit left. I guess fillers and lasers are my next step to combat fine lines and age spots on skin

Thanks so much. You look fab. I’m actually a 3 years older but the sudden drop of jawline has freaked me out and my confidence so low! Little scared of surgery but You’ve inspired me. Are you happy you did it?
September 9, 2022
I am! I am youngish but figured YOLO and enjoy a better face in my 40’s

The fat transfer should not die off if it was done correctly...
