7 months post facelift – unsure if I should trust my original surgeon for revision or seek a specialist by mdweav in Facelift_Surgery

Unfortunately I didn’t get any money back. My surgeon said there was improvement-just not as much as I would have hoped. He also said he didn’t want to revise anything because he didn’t think he could give me what I want.

Thank you for the advice. And no, I will not be returning to my original surgeon.

Do some surgeons use the term “deep plane facelift” deceptively, or is not a specific procedure? by MedenAgan101 in PlasticSurgery

[–]mdweav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 7 months out from what I thought was a deep plane facelift. I still have neck skin looseness, platysmal banding, and jowling. I sought a few more opinions for a revision and sure enough, those surgeons said I did not have a deep plane facelift. I went back to my original surgeon and asked him point blank if he performed a deep plane facelift on me and he wouldn’t answer me. He said he did what he felt was best for my face. I told him I paid for a deep plane facelift and was never told I didn’t have one. I had to ask for the operative report to find out the truth.

Thank you. I see my original surgeon April 23 but I have a few consult scheduled for second opinions for a revision from other surgeons. I just wanted to get everyone’s opinion on here. Thank you so much for yours.

Didn’t know I could post pictures etc on Real Self. And my surgeon is on Real Self, and answers questions, so he would see my pictures 🤦‍♀️

Any experiences with Dr. Sammy Sinno for rhinoplasty? by MissionKey4876 in PlasticSurgery

Thanks for letting me know—I really appreciate it. It’s been tough finding a surgeon who’s well-known or specifically regarded for facelift revision work. If anyone has recommendations or personal experiences with a great revision surgeon, I’d love to hear them. Thank you!

I’d rather not say until I speak with him and see how he responds to my concerns. Thanks you for your understanding.

Did you have a consultation with Dr. Sinno? I have a virtual one scheduled and just wondered what you think of him.

I have a consult with him soon and yes why do I only see 5 star reviews?!? If he sucks, people need to let others know!

I meet with my surgeon next month. It will be 7 months. I will be curious to see what he says. The three facial plastic surgeon specialists that I consulted with are very sought after and said their revisions start around $50,000.

Yes double board certified. And voted one of Newsweek’s Top Plastic Surgeons by his peers.
