I went in for a filler consultation. It was my first time. Like a first high school boyfriend, he pressured me to do it then. I was not getting direct answers, but was rushed and I now I know why. The Almighty Dollar and a line up in his reception area. That's not what pissed me off the most. The fact that he told me he'd do my nasolabial folds only, then proceeded to do my cheeks, chin and nasolabials while I was numbed and feeling weak showed me what kind of person I was dealing with. There was prior discusion that I'd pay for a certain price for filler and then he ended putting in double that amount without permission. No discussion. He just stuck it to me literally and figuratively.

Continue to read these Dr reviews with a grain of salt. Don't be fooled. I know exactly what happened that day, Dr. T and I will never forget it. Instead of making a client, you made a person who will always speak up against you to try to protect others.

Hmm you have give me reason to take him off my follow list. I have bowled over by people and do not need that in a Dr. Thank you for your comment.

I'm sorry it was that way, but it's the truth. I hope you find a better Dr. I was overfilled, lied to, and left pretty much broke because of the shock at the debit machine. I have an idea how he gets these good reviews from having been on his email list, but it's not right!! I wish you the best.

Thank you so much. We are waiting to move, but we are not sure if we are going east or west yet. I have a fantastic Dr. for fillers now. I am looking to have a neck next year so I am scouting out possible people. I have been to a Dr. like that before and it has turned me off from him. He looks more like a person that does the nose. I may shoot you a note if I head east. Thanks!

Can you tell me where I can safely fill my nose with hyaluronic acid?

Hi Szangel, thank you for posting your experience. What would you recommend to other first-timers to avoid similar situations?

It seems you are disappointed with the price tag. But my review was hundred percent honest. All I'm saying is ageing is an overall process. We think it's the nasolabial fold that's ageing us but in actuality malar pads are sinking and chin is flattening and dental changes as we age is causing an overall squarish appearance to the lower face.chin augmentation acts like a soft implant and truly lifts the face and grants u a good profile. Thing is yes the fillers are expensive so good to tell the doctor without feeling embarrassed what the budget is plus easy financing option is available at most facilities. The trend of just filling just one or two spots every month or two actually will cost you more in the long run. As when one spot looks plumped the other looks worse. It did for me until I realised using fillers is like a plastic surgery procedure . its a soft gel implant like procedure not everyone who knows to use a syringe can do it. only a facial surgeon can do it right.

If you're responding to me, you didn't understand my review properly. I am more concerned about the fact he FLAT OUT LIED. HE SAID ONE THING AND DID ANOTHER.

@Szangel You'll find that dishonest doctors is common on this blog. I know exactly what you mean. I had a doctor to perform unauthorized procedures on me while I was sedated. It destroyed my face. Check out my review. Some people will never understand what you're going through until it happens to them.

Oh my God, I feel so bad for you. This is criminal and they know the chances of someone following through, finding support and suiing them successfully is very rare. That's why they take advantage. Greedy [RS bleep]. I will check out your story, but I do hope things have gotten better for you.

If you can find a way to post pictures that would be great. People are falling for these fake reviews hook, line, and sinker. The only way to get through to them is to give them a reality check by posting the bad work of the doctor. This will help them make an informed decision.

i exactly had the same experience with him. He ruined my face.. I have bumps all over my face and cheeks are too big and as a result I got deep folds in my laugh line. i went back to him and he wanted me to put more filler.. I am very dissatisfied with his work. It is better throw your money in the water and save your face.. He is not worth it at all.
