Had an MACS facelift with Dr. Edstrom. Due to his inexperience in this type of facelift and negligence, I can no longer have another face or neck lift performed again. Dr Edstrom hid the fact that severe damage to the under layers and structure of my skin during the procedure. He was negligent because he was out of town and left his residents to remove my sutures several days after surgery. His residents did not realize I had suffered severe damage and never contacted Dr. Edstrom. Dr. Edstrom should have had another qualified plastic surgeon available while he was out of town and not rely on his medical trainees. I asked Dr Edstrom to have a qualified physician to check me out while he was away, but he told me not to worry. I went to Dr. Sullivan last month and showed him the photos after my MACS facelift performed by Dr Edstrom and Dr Sullivan said he had never seen so much damage in his 20+ years of practice and that it would be "too dangerous" to have another face or neck lift.

Dr Edstrom assured me that I would like the results of my surgery, but he did not take responsibility when the surgery went wrong and hid the fact that I would never be able to have surgery again. You've been warned. Find someone else!
