I will starting a new review in the breast revision reviews. U can continue to follow my journey there.

naildivaTammy2's provider

Dr Charles Mok

Overall rating
Doctor's bedside manner
Answered my questions
After care follow-up
Time spent with me
Phone or email responsiveness
Staff professionalism & courtesy
Payment process
Wait times

Dr Mok is NOT board certified!!! He works alongside other highly qualified surgeons and is qualified himself. Although he can be very charming, he does not have a good bedside manner. Allure Medical Spa is a beautiful facility, and the staff are all wonderful, but Dr. Mok is not someone I would ever recommend.

Thanks so much for your review! Charles Mok was my first choice, I'm so glad I decided to get 3 opinions. My PS is known for keeping in touch, maybe because she's a woman. How is your Breast revision going?

So, the second opinion consult went very well. He saw my concerns and listened to all I had to say. He addressed the size and shape issues of my boobs, checked out my scars and told me he could revise them also. Overall he was awesome and his advise was to get a benili lift and aereola reduction. He thinks this would fix the shape issues I have. I'm still bummed about the pocket size difference and the placement of my implants, which he said he could correct, but he thinks that I should seriously consider the risks of taking out my implants again. He also said I probably should have had a lift in the first place. He was very careful to not cut down my ps for not pushing me to do so. His price quote for the lift and aereola reduction is $6,075! I think that's a bit high!!! What do u all think? I'm planning to have a few more consults with other local ps, and I won't be doing any surgery until the fall.
I'm feeling so much more at ease knowing I can be fixed! And I'm not crazy for expecting better results.

I think if you got a lift you would be so happy. I didn't want all the scars, but so glad I did. And the scars are white now. Sucks you have to pay more money...but I would pay more for a good ps. Good luck!! :)

Going for a second opinion

Today I am finally going to see another ps. I'm nervous and excited! I hope he can set my mind at ease, one way or the other... If he tells me there's nothing he can do? I'll learn to love my results, but if he tells me that I've had some botched surgery and he can fix it? I'll be worried about the cost, the pain, the emotional trauma, and the results. I will however be relieved that I can be fixed and no longer have to feel like I've been let down by this surgery. I'll let u all know what he has to say! Wish me luck :0)

Good luck! I read your story. I'm sorry that their office weren't as concerned as they should have been. You approached them very concerned about YOUR body and they didn't seem to care. Get a second opinion. It'll be the best thing. Tummy scar revision looks so good. Just make sure your happy with your body, not content. You deserve it! I hope you update soon :)

Wow! You might want to read my reviews. I have two. First one for my initial BA and second one for my upcoming revision. Just like you I was not happy with my outcome from the beginning. You pay all this money to come out looking somewhat even and with no major issues. My first PS sounded concerned but honestly I just did not feel comfortable having him work on me again. So now I have a new PS that seems to know what he is talking about. Yes I have to spend more money than what I wanted but I just want satisfactory results. NOT perfection. I so get what you are going through. Hoping for the best for you!!!

I just finished reading your reviews... Thanks for suggesting! I think the only difference in ps is that your ps was willing to make u happy! Mine just thinks I'm too picky and I can't achieve the results I desire. The new ps I saw suggested a lift and that's it. He told me the asymmetry I have is very minimal and he could correct it but that I should consider the risks of infection taking the implants out again, as I have silicone and can't adjust the size. Im planning to have a few more consultations.

A few more consults would be good. And no you are NOT crazy!!! I totally get you. I think with the right PS you can be fixed and be happy. Best wishes on your journey.
