Lipostructure Fat Grafting / TriBeCa Plastic Surgery review: buyer beware! 541

They will take a pretty face like Michael Jackson's and try to make a devil's face, like one of their own.

Don't do it! you will be very, very sorry. It is a procedure done by bad doctors who are salesmen. They will stuff you with the fat and then when you look worse they will lie and insist you look better.

I would like to know if it's the incompetency of the doctor or is fat transfer just a wrong procedure to be done in the first place?I, myself am interested in the treatment but am having second thoughts now.Even if I do decide to give it a try, it would definitely not be any of these doctors mentioned here.Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Wow. I am scheduled for a consultation with dr coleman and am shocked at this. To the woman with the curly brown hair: on your forehead do you just feel you have to much fat placed, or is it "wavy"? Do you have ridges or bumps, as well?

To the woman with the straight hair: do you just feel you have to much fat placed, or is it "wavy" or "ridgey" or does it have bumps as well?

I hope you don't mind me asking these somewhat personal questions. thank you

There are no globs in my case but the could be seam as globs. Just swollen skin around little hard lumps.

Are there any other tests besides an MRI that
plot where the fat graft globs are?
wouldnt the same tests that detect cancer also
work at dectecting fat graft globs?

Ha! Ha! Isn't it so telling that the butt-ugliest doctor on that show The Doctors happens to be a plastic surgeon!

When recently i purchased a jar of your apple sauce i was very dissapointed, There seemed to be more of the core added than apples. I only purchase well known brands and have never had any reason for complaint with any of your products in the past but i will be avoiding your apple sauce in the future.
I felt i had to let you know about this as this ruined my families sunday meal.

Other than hating fat graft with a passion, yes I guess I am okay.

No longer smiling check your inbox.

Has anyone seen Dr. Jonathan Hoenig to have the fat cut out?

and what is this story by Coleman about a mystery man who had prior surgery, begged him to operate on him, and then disappeared to another country? clearly the victims posted here are not even men so what is he talking about? sounds like he made up a story to hide behind.

Dr. Reisman sounds like a he is instructing evil doctors on how to select their best prime victims, like any good predator knows:

"Heading off trouble
The surest way to deal with problempatients
can be summed up in one statement, says
Dr. Reisman: It’s easier not to get in than it is
to get out.Use your best judgment in patient
selection – don’t take on those you feel will
be problematic, no matter what."

Dr. Reisman, who do you like to pick on? Is it elderly old women maybe?
problematic? not getting consent could cause anyone to be problematic! Coleman belongs in jail for violating people.

I can't believe the lies I read by Coleman: "Patients should realize that there is a recovery after any procedure, and that recovery is variable. Although most people look great by two months after fat grafting, the actual result may not be seen for as much as six months or even longer in rare circumstance."!
If this is true, why does his face look so lumpy and old? Hasn't he recovered YET?
This con man will have you waiting forever for the final outcome that will never come! The real outcome that he refuses to admit: flat, deflated skin!
And I must say he does look like Freddy Crougar on that icky Doctors show, as someone on here said previously.
And he says that you all went to other surgeons to try and place the blame on others.

You are literally saving lives by getting the word
out! great job!

What is wrong with Coleman? I think he is demented and has poor reasoning. How old is he? Does he suffer from dementia? Maybe that could explain his strange and poor perception of reality.

Can a thread be made just for trying to correct over
grafted fat graft area's?

Holly, Puffiness seems worse in the morning and during menstration.

Corey can you tell me around how old that other lady in the pictures was when she had her fat grafting to her face?
Does she post here too?

If you try to remove fat graft be prepared for a treadmill of surgeries! In my eperience it has been the gift that keeps on giving.However I do know of a lady who had only one excision and was fixed.Not my case.

Has anyone found that the puffy eyelids from fat grafting get better with time or with more physical activity?

Hi Corey,

Thank you for your thoughtful reply.

I am not sure what is going on because I can not find your answer to my questions. If you do not mind repeating yourself too much, would you mind, saying once more how long ago the Coleman victims' posting here had surgery?

Also, are the close-up photos of the person with the drooping chin, and drooping the mid-face drooping of you after surgery?

Finally, as a person who has had to deal with bad surgical results, let me advise you, don't give into depression.

Its very brave of you to publicly recount your travails, but don't just do that. If you can, start trying to fix yourself. At 6 mos to a year it's safe to move forward.

How long ago did the people who feel disfigured by Coleman have their surgeries?

Did not mean to be rude but I just want to warn you and others against plastic surgery with a good descriptive warning. I do not believe in it one bit and I do not think you or anyone here is freaky looking at all. I do not like Joan Rivers. She advocates plastic surgery but she looks horrible. She is trying to make it seam fine to mutilate people. And her remark about poor people dying with dignity seams cold and morbid.

You are fine the way you are. I would stay away from all Plastic surgeons if I were you! I don't see any that look good! Maybe you just think they do because they dress up in suits, act rich, and pretend all the patients are their good friend. And if you suspect that they had plastic surgery that is enough reason for their results to be considered bad, in my opinion.
Otherwise you will end up looking like Joan Rivers with a freaky look. That nutcase, Joan, was yacking on the apprentice about how the poor should have be allowed to die with dignity. What a nut job! She has no dignity with her freaky looking face. She looks like a dead carcass should look!

Taylor. You are a beautiful person. Not because of Coleman stuffing you like a turkey and driving you nuts, but because you have survived and recovered. Please do not go to doctors and let them screw with your face anymore! Plastic surgeons are the sleeze of the medical community. They are a clannish group of rats and they use the media, their position, and flash to manipulate people!

Hello,
would any of you mind telling me how long ago you had your surgery?

While i am here, if you have problems with over grafting. you might want to try dr carraway. he does a lot of facial lipo and has lipo ed unwanted grafts for a lot of people

I looked at Coleman's face the other day and he is ugly. Coleman is so ugly so why does he feel like he is an authority on beauty? He is too ugly to know beauty.
His face is fat in all the wrong places, his skin is old looking, his eyes are too close together, and his hair is curly like pubic hair. He is old looking! How dare he show that illustration of an old face turn into a young face when it does not work for him even! When I see the people who went to him I wonder why they thought such an ugly man would make them better looking.

Why do jewish doctors like to mutilate people and make them look weird? Is it just money or is weird beautiful to them?

You're opinion of me is entirely irrelevant.
My comments here are intended to serve only two purposes:

Amuse me.
Deny you the ability to post unanswered libel.

I just read his comments fully and I must comment on zombiewoof more. You must be nuts, Zombiewolf!
And from the sounds of your rantings I would say you are also senile! I have noticed that it is pretty common for senile or nutty people to think they are much better than "the commoners" when they are just senile and silly in the head. And if you have never even heard of Coleman or undergone fat grafting, why are you here? Zombiewoof...I think you are a senile plastic surgeon!
"I find most people to be a bit thick headed (yes, I'm an elitist) and the user base here is pretty far down the food chain.
There really isn't any reason to pity them, and I certainly don't identify with them.
It could be that I have a deep seated natural protectiveness of my fellow man.
Or perhaps I'm merely elevating myself by diminishing you.
It really doesn't matter."--Zombiewoof, the Great!

"Zombiwoof monster from hell,
I did not read every word of your rantings..."

Sorry - I stopped reading there.

Zombiwoof monster from hell,
I did not read every word of your rantings but it is clear just from your name that you are EVIL! It is so clear to me that you must be an ANGRY PLASTIC SUGEON that is AFRAID of being found out yourself, for having cheated thousands upon thousands out of their money!
How many of your youth potions and unscientifically backed procedures actually work?
And I am so sorry you are against freedom of speech...so you can't just cheat every single living soul out of their money! MAYBE YOU SHOULD GO AMMEND THE BILL OF RIGHTS!
Let me remind you... the First Amendment states that:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for the redress of grievance.
NOW WHILE YOU AND OTHER BAD DOCTORS GO AMMEND THE BILL OF RIGHTS...we will continue our little expose here!
( so you know...I am screaming now...because you are so dense!...)
AND AS FOR TAYLOR...SHE CAN'T GET A LAWYER BECAUSE THEY TURN DOWN PLASTIC SURGERY PATIENTS ----AUTOMATICALLY!
I ***!KNOW!**** BECAUSE I CALLED 20 LAWYERS MYSELF AND THEY TURNED DOWN MY CASE -------BEFORE!---- EVEN SPEAKING TO ME, JUST BASED ON THE FACT THAT I HAD
***ELECTIVE PLASTIC SURGERY***!
So be gone you zombiwolf... Go prey on your victims but beware the day when they read this cite and discover they have been had...

You can rail at me all you want - but this woman is a raving loon.

I do know there are a lot of hungry lawyers out there.

I had one offer services to me on contingency when it was clear my surgeon was blameless.

I busted my hip in a freak accident some years ago, and being lazy, I blew off my post-op physical therapy.

As a result, I get an annoying twinge every now and then.

There wasn't a damned thing wrong with the procedure.

Yet, the lawyer knew full well that he could likely extort money from the insurance company if I whined loudly and convincingly enough.

There is no shortage of lawyers willing to take on malpractice cases, so - again - I'm calling ### on this.

This site is pretty much a joke anyway - more than 80% of the complaints are from people who have been bilked by hucksters after they've sent away for some "get rich fast" scheme.

You can't con an honest man.

FYI: I'd never heard of Coleman until I came to this site the other day.

Zombiwoof go away! You have no idea of the gut wrenching pain that comes with being disfigured .

Zombiewolf, you are quite strange. What business is it of yours if this woman wants to complain about Coleman? What is your relation to Coleman?

If you think it is simple to file a civil suit against a plastic surgeon for a poor outcome, or against anyone for anything, you are an intense combination of poorly educated and stupidity. Its one thing to be ignorant, its quite another to issue proclamations about a subject you lack basic knowledge about --like you said, everything you know about civil law come from tv. Sorry. That's not a foundation to deliver statements of certainty from.
And with comments like: "maybe i just like to help my fellow man. everyone likes to see a woman rise up against her oppressor" you really come across as not right in the head. Your comments about the psychology of strange posters as it related to the coleman situation is..uh..a little unnecessary, TMI, just plain weird?

My position relies on your statements, not who I am.

Nothing sneeky.

You made a point of not using anonymity (that debatable - but another subject) so I copy/pasted you into google.
It wasn't hard and two about 90 seconds to follow the obvious pattern of paranoia.
Typing all that crap took longer, but only because I wanted to be as clear as possible, and I *do* have other things going on.
We all love to hear stories about the valiant victim rising up to throw off her oppressor.
At best, you're unstable and misguided.
At worst, you're malevolent and psychopathic.
Either way, you're not a person to be trusted, and I submit that you are a great example of why these sites don't work well for anything more serious than "I didn't receive my rebate."
What I'm trying to do is point that out.
Why I'm doing this is a valid question.
I find most people to be a bit thick headed (yes, I'm an elitist) and the user base here is pretty far down the food chain.
There really isn't any reason to pity them, and I certainly don't identify with them.
It could be that I have a deep seated natural protectiveness of my fellow man.
Or perhaps I'm merely elevating myself by diminishing you.
It really doesn't matter.

I have no standing to threaten you.

You haven't wronged me.
But I think you are wronging the party which you attack, and wronging people who seek information.
You aren't claiming that he didn't send you a "get rich quick" kit in a timely manner, like most of the whiners on here.
You aren't even claiming malpractice - you're claiming criminal acts, which if true, would result in serious prison time and complete loss or career.
To make such a charge in a public forum without being able to back it up is irresponsible.
I've sent you nothing privately.
Why would I do that?
I guess the harshest thing I could do to you is to educate you.
IANAL - everything I know abut our legal system comes from TV and movies.
That also means this is pretty commonly understood lay knowledge.
I'm sure that should Coleman decide to file suit against you, your postings here will all be admissible as evidence of several points.
In your various statements, you've established that you know that your statements have the potential to interfere with the business of Dr Coleman. That, combined with you presenting your interpretation of events and Dr Coleman's motivations as fact rather than opinion, puts a lot of the legal burden on you in a libel case.
The only real defense you would have would be truth.
And because you've stated your views as fact rather than opinion, and have a malicious intent, you don't get to say "gee - guess I was wrong."
Unless you can prove that a reasonable person - whether or not you happen to be reasonable - would reach the same conclusions as you - it's libel.
The reason I'm breaking that down for you is that IF you get sued, you won't be able to claim you didn't know.
And you won't be able to deny having read it unless you stop posting.
And you won't stop posting.
Which will make legal action against you *after* you've had the obvious pointed out to you, and you've acknowledged the information, and you continue to libel - a slam dunk.
I'm not going to contact the Doc - I'm far to lazy and I think my purposes are better served by simply exposing you for the liar you are.
Yup - I'm publicly calling you a liar.
I'm stating that you are deliberately trying to mislead people in a callous attempt to aggrandize yourself, interfere with someone's business by doing irreparable damage to their reputation, and boost your poor self esteem.
Liar, liar!

I think I'm going to have to get in touch with Dr Coleman to see if there is anything I can do to assist him in shutting you up.

You need serious help.
And your internet connection severed.
