65-year-old with brand new look over lunchtime.

I didn't reply to you post yesterday, Cathleen, because I was waiting for a reply from Dr. Few's office re: photo avails. I haven't had my post-procedure photos done yet. That's been scheduled now. I heard back from the office late today that they don't post photos online for confidentiality reasons, but many before and after photos are available in the office. And honestly I don't feel comfortable putting my own photos online either. And this is indeed my first post here. I don't broadcast about my injections or this procedure. As for your other question yesterday, I had 4 sutures total. And my reference to Photoshopping was in regard to the effectiveness and subtlety of the Silhouette. I see a marked difference, as my photos at the office will bear out, but not everyone would notice. I've just heard from people in last few weeks how great I look. As for number of sutures, there were 4. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. I've been going to Dr. Few for years and have never been disappointed with Botox, filler treatments or Ultherapy treatments administered by him. I used to go to Chicago to see him, but now he also comes to NY. I know many people who swear by his results. I can't imagine him not being concerned about any problems or unhappiness as a result of his work. Wishing you all the best!

I'm glad you had good results. I believe my face actually looks worse, which Dr. Few's Fellow working in his office is something they are seeing where there is actually an emphasis on jowling after the Instalift. 2 sutures per side is what Dr. Few seems to do for everyone despite most docs stating 3 to 4 sutures per side is more common. Oh well, guess I was just an unlucky customer. Like you said, it is astounding to me that Dr. Few doesn't try to remedy a situation. I wouldn't go back to him obviously and am telling as many people as I can not to bother with him or this procedure. Thanks for replying!! You are gracious.

And one more thing.....Dr. Few's office could release photos if the patient didn't care and signed a release. I should've asked for Before and Afters before I scheduled the Silhouette, but I'm going to guarantee Dr. Few comes up with some excuse as to not show photos of other patients.
I did not find Dr. Few to be warm. He acted friendly, but as soon as my procedure was over, he bolted from the room before I was even upright from the chair. That's highly unprofessional in my opinion.
I just wasn't impressed with any aspect of his office or the procedure itself. They pride themselves on not having a waiting room, but all they're really doing is shuffling patients into procedure rooms to sit and wait and be subjected to the constant video reel of Dr. Few promoting himself and his procedures.
I did get a laugh when his office sent out an email promoting the "Few Initiative" for children and an upcoming fundraiser at Soul Cycle. You could ride in the class for a $100 donation towards the Few Initiative or $500 to ride on a bike next to Dr. Few.....now that's funny. Dude really believes his own hype. I don't see any other Chicago plastic surgeons who promote themselves and believe their own hype the way Few does.

Okay, rant over. I'm sorry, it's just hard to have spent so much money and feel as if I actually look worse. I may be harboring some resentments.

My sutures were 4 per side.

That's interesting. I guess that just solidifies my belief that Dr. Few is not honest or direct. He offered me on my follow-up appt. that he'd add a third suture per side if I didn't see results within 6 weeks. When that appointment arrived, he didn't even mention his original offer and immediately offered filler. When I mentioned the promise of the 3rd suture, he told me it would give me a marionette line and he didn't want to do it. He did the same thing to another poster on this forum. That's pretty poor behavior.
I'm glad you had a better experience. You're lucky. I think his practices are shady and I don't appreciate being taken for a ride.

I had this same procedure done with the same doc. I had 4 sutures total (2 per side) and it was $4500. $4500 is still an incredible rip off when considering my results were non-existent.

I question the validity of this review and the reliability of the reviewer.

I see now....Happy had 4 sutures per side or 8 total. The pricing is curious and the number of sutures is curious since Dr. Few refused to do 3 sutures per side for me, telling me I'd have a "marionette" look.

Regardless -- avoid the doctor and avoid the procedure.
