He made the scars disappear that were left by another surgeon in town who did the initial facelift. I'm not exaggerating, you have to really stare to find scars and even then, most of it is impossible to detect. Before I saw Dr. Perrotta, my face was left with obvious Frankenstein scars that had not improved within a year and I was unable to wear my hair any other way but down over the scars to hide them. There were many problems created by the other surgeon's work which left a disaster, yet Dr. Perrotta was able to revise and repair the other facelift, as if erasing evidence that the previous facelift ever happened. It took three separate surgeries to fix what the other surgeon had done to my face. Not only has Dr. Perrotta now given me the facelift I dreamed about, some of my previous facelift's painful, distorted scars were skillfully revised by Dr. Perrotta, leaving me finally pain free and looking fantastic.

So, by now I'm sure you're wondering why I didn't seek him out in the beginning and save myself the misery from the other doctor's incompetent work. Instead of seeking out a doctor based on technical skills, foolishly I had asked my dermatologist who I thought would have seen results from plastic surgeons in town, after all she deals with skin all day long. I asked for her to tell me who would she allow to cut on her face if she were seeking a facelift, not who she likes to refer people to, but who would she let perform surgery upon her face. What a mistake, to put it mildly, as I was sent to someone for my initial facelift who obviously didn't graduate near the top of his class nor did he have skills any better than my veterinarian. The following year was a nightmare that I could write a book on, however let me save you the time and lead you to the plastic surgeon who is the best, the "cream of the crop", Dr. Vincent Perrotta.

My first facelift by another surgeon in town was a disaster and it took Dr. Perrotta four surgeries to fix what another doctor had done to me. You can read my story on make me heal message board in the facelift section. If you can come to Maryland, you will be taken care of with Dr. Perrotta. I feel very strongly about that, secrets, so don't give up.

At this point, I have spent over $20,000 which includes the four revision surgeries and the facelift by the first surgeon. Dr. Perrotta's fees are average and he has promotions every few months.

I did decide to go forward with Dr. Perrotta for a mommy makeover. My appointment is scheduled for Friday the 14th! Getting close. I told Dr. Perrotta that you spoke highly of him.

Woohoo! Congratulations. I had to change my name here on the board, I hope you gave him my real first name that was on here before. You will be so very happy! Recovery is a slow process, just be patient and you will soon see the new you. I'm so very happy for you.

He sounds wonderful is it expensive to have a face lift with him

The fees charged were normal, right in line for east coast USA, not anymore than you would expect to pay and not as much as some of these docs are charging.

I'm really excited as this is my first consult ever! I'm so glad I found this site and all of you amazing members!!!!!! Also are there any particular questions I should be asking? I'm interested in BA & lipo/ mini tuck?? Thanks in advance!!
