How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Request for Scar Pix

  • 2 Feb 2017

These pix are as of 2/2 -- almost 11 months exactly. I can see a tiny white line where the scar is when I flatten my hair back, but when it is not plastered to my head, I can't see it at all.

Forgot the chin

Forgot to post a picture of the area under my chin that has a bit of sag to it -- but it really does change during the day depending on lighting, angle etc. I don't think there's any solution, my neck was tightened so much I swore I'd never swallow again, so if this is the worst it is -- oh well! It only appears straight on, can't see it in the other photos.

10 Month Update

Really happy with how everything turned out. Of course there are areas I wish were tighter -- will that thing under my chin ever be totally taut??? Short answer -- no. With swelling completely gone, there is a bit of skin there, but it's not that noticeable unless I'm fixated on looking for something to complain about.

I still have crow's feet and hoped they'd disappear, but due to the anatomy of my face, I have to depend on botox for that, and even then it's hit and miss. But bottom line I'm thrilled I did it, I love having a lower forehead, I don't feel like I have that awful TIRED look that dogged me in the past.

So I'm 100% glad I did it and would totally do it again in a heartbeat. Oh -- and I truly cannot find the scar along my hairline -- the hair has grown through it and I can't see it at all.

Met Dr. Sonntag for the first time during my pre surgery consultation since I was referred by a friend in Vancouver, WA. The instant he walked in the room all my trepidation vanished. He is funny, respectful, realistic, and talked to my husband equally throughout the consultation. He doesn't promise what he can't deliver, and several of my requests he declined in that they wouldn't be possible and/or give the hoped for result. I respect that in a surgeon. The overall vibe of the office is one of calm professionalism. Both my husband and I agreed Dr. Sonntag was a great choice for my procedures. I mentioned in advance I would be doing a RealSelf review and he was fine with that. I explained there are not that many forehead lowering reviews out there and it would be a great service to many patients to have yet another surgeon as an option for this procedure.
