Repaired my Botched Lower Face Lift

Dr. Bloch is the best! He is highly experienced and knows what he is doing. I have learned the hard way... you get what you pay for. If you know you deserve the best then go to Dr. Bloch. He fixed my botched lower face lift by another much less experienced doctor and now I look the way I was supposed to. My regret is that I didn't go to Dr. Bloch to begin with. Live and learn. Now you can learn from my mistake. Don't go anywhere else! He's the BEST!

I picked the most expensive of the five surgeons for my lower facelift and still got a botched job.

Was Dr Bloch one of the 5 you consulted with in the beginning? May I ask what about your first FL that was considered botched?

Initally I went to Dr. Bloch in Highland Park, IL (highly skilled) for a consult which was about $15,000. I went for another consult with Dr. Campbell who was $10,000. I choose Dr. Campbell because he didn't require sedation and it was $5,000 less expensive. After my lower face lift I had a couple lumps and sagging skin under my chin. Dr. Campbell gave me a couple steroid shots at 2 different follow-ups, but they did nothing. When I went back for my 6 month check up Dr. Campbell said he never seen it before and didn't know what it was. Needless to say I didn't feel safe having him repair his botched surgery. I went back to Dr. Bloch in Highland Park, IL and was told it was simply fat and loose skin and I needed lipo to remove the fat and lazer treatment to tighten the skin. I chose to have him do it and I looked 100% better in 2 weeks! Needless to say Dr. Bloch was not happy about the fact that I went somewhere else and he had to fix the other doctors mistake, but he did it and now I look the way I was supposed to initially. Lesson: You get what you pay for! i.e. Spend the money and go to the best! You're worth it!

I picked the most expensive doctor thinking I would get more from the doc that specializes in faces. My outcome was the same as yours. I haven’t yet had it redone but it’s on my shortlist.

you say it cost 5,000.00 but in the letter you said it was 15,000.00
can you please clarify ??
