Lifestyle Lift Pain and deformity

I had the lifestyle lift procedure November 2008. I have pain on both sides of my face, one ear lobe that is attached to my skin, the other is not. There is an elevated area under my right ear lobe which is hard in texture. Also I constantly feel tightness and numbness .

With all the complaints being filed why is nothing being done to end one of the most fraudulent scams ripping off and taking advantage of thousands of good holsom people who just want to improve their self esteem and their lives ? Isn't there any legal
recourse that we can take as a group, instead of just talking about it ?

Dr. Kim in Marietta, GA at Lifestyle Lift is not only unprofessional cursing & talking about strip clubs during surgery. Yes, I was awake & hearing his discusting conversation with his assistants & crying both times because the pain was so excruciating. Yes, had to go back a 2nd time to have everything redone because it wasn't done right the first time. My eyes have more wrinkles around them now than they did before the 2 surgeries. I will seek other help. The company doesn't care about your pain & it's performed like a drive-thru. They tell you everything you want to hear but none is true. It was a nightmare & still is. If you don't want to give your money away to be tortured and scarred to look worse than you were to begin with, then STAY AWAY FROM THIS HEARTLESS, DISRESPECTFUL, EXTREMELY PAINFUL CHOPSHOP.

Lifestyle Lift Lies, deceitful practices, non-discloseure

Lifestyle Lift advertises with informercials that they can take up to 10 years off your face in about an hour. They no longer use this advertising practice after being warned about deceptive advertising. This goes right along with the woman leaving with her husband to go to lunch after her LSL. The LSL Lift performed on my face left me scarred with eyes cut differently, creases missed entirely, one cat eye, one eye cut straight across with a fat bag to hang down and over, scars around ears and pain that was unrelenting behind ears, couldn't wear glasses, talk on phone, etc. I put up with this for 8 months almost. LSL kept having me drive countless miles to tell me to come back next month, maybe we can do something then. I was told by a doctor there that she did not have the expertise to fix what had been done to me in front of the general manager. Check out realself.com. There is major breaking information on a lawsuit that is about to be filed. Couldn't happen to a nicer group of "people". Do not have this procedure done without getting a 2nd opinion from some one other that a LSL salesperson or doctor. These sales people get commission on what they do to you. So the more they sell, the more money they make. Since when does a sales person know what you need to have done to your face? And since when does a salesperson need to pre-sale you on what the doctor can do for you, isn't the doctor suppose to meet with you and tell you what he thinks that you need? They are selling a cookie cutter procedure to many, many people. And don't let them fool you with if you sign today we can save you $1200. That is what they do to everyone. And watch out for the thumb screws they bring out if you start hesitating. Your face will be with you forever. Do not wind up scarred and feeling like a dummie. Seek out a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with hospital priviledges.

Lifestyle Lift Facelift

I went in for a consult 3 yrs ago. I met w/ a consultant who determined I was a good candidate for this one hour innovative new procedure, so easy, you can go back to work the next day. It was deemed a lunchtime procedure. The consultant I found out months later was not in the medical field & had no expertise to say I was a candidate. She showed me w/ her fingertips where the incisons would be, in the ear, a small incision. I didn't book that day, but went back a week later after being reassured the Dr was a Plastic Surgeon. I met w/ the DR. He also did the finger pull in front of the ear& told me it would take 7-10 yrs off your face & kast 10 yrs or more. It was a high sales pitch by the consultant, offering a nice discount if you book then w/ immediate financing at 0% for one year. No side effects, no anesthesia, no nerve damage, easy procedure, go back to work the next day. IMPOSSIBLE!
eI had to eat tha next 3 days thru a straw. For over 6 months (approx) I couldn't hold a phone to my ear.
They had given me a lower facelift w/o my permission. I had been cut all the way around my ears& to top that off, my left ear was stretched down& my earlobe was sewn to my face. My ear is misplaced, The top sticks out, bottom is attached to my face& my earphones no longer fit. They don't keep surgical records so you have no clue what they do to you. The Dr offered a revision, but when I asked what that entailed, he said 'I will sew your right ear to your face. OMG!
There are currently 50 girls I met on a website called Realself. Our stories are all basically the same. Some are worst off than me with huge ropey ugly scars, mis-shapen ears& eyes. Their infomercials on TV cleverly minimize the results you will get. This is not saying they don't have some good dr's there, but there are many there that give horrible results! Be warned to check out your DR if you go there or anywhere. Check for board certification, check for a dr in good standing. Ask all the right questions.And above all else please MAKE them show you where the incisions will be!
Altho I was told, get it in writing... What I got I never bargained for. Small incisions to basically dissecting my ears was not what I bargained for. The 10 to 20 shots in your face hurt like heck. I have been in chronic pain a long long time& they won't say what they did to me! Most other plastic surgeons won't touch me because of this. Be aware, be careful& be smart.

Go to your states medical licensing bureau & file a complaint. It's a simple form. Take pictures and log everythime you called& what was said. Many of us have bad painful scars. Where do you live? I may be able to help w/ the link. I would ask the Dr who did it to try to minimize the scars at no cost to you. You can also email corporate at WeCare@Lifestylelift.com . It's been my experience & to many that I've seen stories of, they promise & don't deliver. I'd give them a week and file a complaint if they don't help.
Good Luck!

I agree& very well said.I also want to add, check out your DR on your states' medical licensing website or call. Be sure they are certified in Facial Plastic Surgery by The AFPSB. You can type in these letters online to get the site. Also the AMA and the Amer. Plastic Surg. Board. Heck...Even go so far as asking the DR for his patient referrals& before and after pictures. IT IS YOUR FACE! Don't fall for the small fee, discounted if you sign NOW and all the other rhetoric. I know too many that are scarred and in horriffic pain for life. I also know of two deaths. It's worth a little homework.

Ben.
How can your doctor not keep surgical records though...? That's a bit odd.
That's what I thought, but after emailing 100 bad LSL patients, they all say the same thing. I believe by them not logging calls, calling us back, no surgical reports, wehen we complain, they can say,
Oh, She never called & complained!" Google LSL, see the complaints& fines for making their employees go onto a popular cosmetic websire to post great reviews, in order yo boost thei percentages there. It was like 72 against LSL& 19 in favor. Then the employees posted good reviews & thet went up dramatically. We all know it was happening, better yet the Atty. Gen. Of NY, knew iot too& fined them

In the recent couple yrs, they have hired certified plast surgeons& some a re good, some bad. They have 40 centers & almost everyone has a comment such as yours. My Dr was a board ELIGIBLE ENT, no hopspital affiliations& basically on your own after the surgery which I was told would be a small incison. I was cut all the way around my ears into the back o my head.
All I can advise you is to look online or call your states medical licensing board& ile a coplaint. I did.They are office surgical centers that don't have to be accredited by the states. So, the DR that works there answers to no-one. It's a scam, in my opinion...Filing a complaint is easy. Take pics of ypourself& explain what happened. Good Luck..
They do not call you back when u call in w/ problems, nor do they log your calls& complaints, so keep notes. I know a couple in your LSL center that were messed up. EM mail& I'll ask them if they will talk to yo. I am sure they will. There are 2 dead now. So Sad! Stay in touch

Yes, just today. I've even heard that LSL was shifting blame to the patient, saying she never disclosed a history of seizures. Since when did that stop them? They operated on women w. very high blood pressures. This is not the 1st death. There was one in FL, I heard

I know how you feel.. Three and a half yrs later, I am still in terrible pain, yet my earlobes are numb and behind my ears burn, feels like someone is tearing my ears off. I was lured into their Revolutionary NEW, hottest procedure sweeping the states. Go to luch after, back to work the next day.I thought it was a regualra clinic in which a plastic surgeon did his work. I had no idea it was a meat market, meeting their quotas for the week. Many Dr's are only board ELIGIBLE, as mine was, an ENT Dr.
Their website claimed they were ALL board CERTIFIED w/ hospital affiliations. My Dr was fired & on medical probation/ monitored always. His idea of a revision after pulling dowm my ear& sewing it to my face was to do the same thing to the other side! That's a good doctor, huh?
Everything told to me was misleading, dection& lies. To this day it hurts to hold a phone to my ears & I had it done in 2006. My job entailed being on the phone 80% of my day. What a joke!
What type of sedative did you have?
BTW, I reported the dr to the state medical boards& they interviewd the DR& his lawyer& determined it should go up to the medical board.
Another LSL sister had something happen to her esophagus, developed a MRSA infection & was hospitilized many months. They were trying to get her stabilized enough to crack open her chest, like a By-Pass & repair it. She's been a very sick lady.
You can read her story at Realself.com..
Keep in touch & take care
PS- pretty much after my swelling went down, so did my jowls.
The biggest mistake of my life!
After numerous complaints & begging them to say what they did to me, the DR never called me ONCE! What kinda Dr does that?
When I went for my medical records, I was told it had to be checked by the Dr& sent to LEGAL before I could get them. I don't know about you, but when I go in for medical records, I've never been told, LEGAL has to check them 1st!

There are some good doctors there, but please, as with any procedure, check him/her out w/ the American Plastic Board, The Osteopathis board, AMA, and your atate medical licensing board.
When I had mine done, I never knew this was an option for me. I believed everything they told me.
As far as the commercials, someone commented they haven't seen them lately.
Try watching during the #1 rated soap opera, "the Young & Restless', '''The Glen Beck Show' on Fox and The hit show, "The Doctors'. They have an awesome marketing team.

I went to Lifestyle Lift about 3 years ago. On the face procedure, I woke up in the hospital 3 days later and didn't remember ANYTHING I'd done for the past 3 days! The "Dr" had over injected me and I simply couldn't wake up! But, they still let me pay for everything! LOL. I just stay away from places like this. They are not what they are cracked up to be and my face is right back where I started + plus some from where I started! :-(. This location was in Kenwood, OH. They have since closed, but I got a letter from that Dr. telling where he'd gone and please come see them at their new location. Right! Hold your breath and wait for me to show up! LOL. I suggest going to a REAL plastic surgeon. You don't always get what you pay for. Sometimes you pay a lot and get a lot less! BEWARE!

When I went for my consultation for Life Style Life, it all seemed very wonderful without an actual facelift surgery. I would finally be able to get rid of my acne scars, my "jowls" would be gone, etc. To my horror, I woke up during the procedure to EXTREME pain. I was screaming and crying but couldn't see (they had something in my eyes). I could smell my flesh burning and I could feel it as well as they used their lasers. I could also hear the squishing of skin on my left side as they were pulling my skin before they stitched me up. My husband and son stood in horror as I entered the room. They told my son he looked like he was seeing a ghost. I was told I would heal in 7-10 days. NOT! It took months. My skin is now dry and dimpled. My acne scars are still here and so are my jowls. I am numb beside my ears. I have horrific scars behind my ears. I can't wear earrings long and I cannot keep my contacts in for long either. I tried to contact them and left e-mail after e-mail with no response. Now they are taking me to court.

I had a life style lift done on, 1-22-14 .
The worst day of my life . The doctor showed up 5 hours late and he was already very agitated . There were two patients before me. I wash is last . The procedure was excruciatingly painful and sloppy.
The entire time the doctor ( Robert S. Kagan from Elk Grove Village Illinois ) was so leaning so close to me he was pressing against my chest and I can smell his awful breath . I had to stop him because I couldn't breathe . The pain was so horrible and I could smell my flesh burning as he cut with a hot knife . The entire procedure lasted about 1 hour but it was the longest hour of my life . I still have nightmares about my experience. I really think I suffer from post traumatic injury . Plus I have horrible hypertrophic scars . It looks like my face was seen back on . It hurts and doesn't feel natural anymore . The biggest regret of my life . How can these butchers get away with the harm the inflicted on so many patients ? The patients should at least be compensated for what they paid to have their lives ruined . The face isn't something you can hide . This is a permanent injury which lasts for life . There must be justice for each and every patient who suffered emotional and physical trauma and even death .

Well, I was thinking about doing the Lifestyle face lift. I called them, they sent me their brochure, and a very friendly lady talked to me by phone, and tried to convince me to go for a consultation in Denver, CO. I was saving the money to go and do it, but thank God that I came in to this page, and read your reviews, and what has happened to you. I changed my mind, and I am so sorry for what happened to all of you, and hope that somehow you all get better. You all have save me from a disaster. God Bless!

Lifestyle Lift has sued me for a cashier's check that they said they "lost" because they performed the surgery within 72 hours of receiving the check. What they really wanted was another check with a different date on it. Needless to say, they didn't get it. It didn't matter to them that they failed to take certain precautions and do pre-op procedures one week before the procedure began such as avoiding blood thinners, etc. It is obvious that they don't care if you bleed to death as long as they get their money. You already know the experience I had. It is the same as all the others. The procedure didn't take an hour, I couldn't return back to work in a week. They didn't even follow their own pre-op procedures. I have permanent nerve damage as a result of their botched job. The pain is excruciating. I lost my job because they claim I could return to work the following Thursday. They overcharged me for the procedure. They wouldn't give me a copy of the contract required by law because they knew it would bury them. They actually refused my document subpoena. They are also in violation of the Consumer Protection Act and the Fair Trade Practices Act. PLEASE WRITE TO YOUR GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS. You can find the application on-line. We can protect others from the same fate.

Lifestyle Lift Lifestyle Lift Doctor

Three weeks ago, I scheduled for a Liftstyle Lift in Manhattan. I met with Dr. Konstantin prior to surgery. He said he can improve my appearance and make me look younger. Mind you, I am in my late thirties. Most of the people I saw in the waiting room were much older, probably in their 60's or 70's. I felt so out of place. I had doubts about this procedure because I was afraid of having scars on my face. And my teenage daughter told me not to do it. She said I just need to lose some weight.
I couldn't sleep the night before my surgery. When I came in for the procedure the next day, I was really nervous. The technician took my blood pressure. When she was about to medicated me with valium, I told her " I am having second thoughts about this procedure." She said she will have the doctor talk to me. Boy oh Boy, this is when I truly know the ugly side of Dr. Konstantin. I said " I don't think I'm ready for this procedure. I am really nervous. I don't want to have scars on my face." He said "Don't be nervous, I'm going to give valium to relax you. Its going to be a small incision around your ear. You wont have scarring" He kept insisting me to take the valium. How can he promise no scarring on my face? I said "My daughter thinks I don't need to have this procedure. I just need to lose some weight. Her opinion is important to me" He said "Nobody NEEDS to have this procedure, if they want to they can die ugly! You're an adult, why are you asking your daughter for opinions." OMFG, I can't believe how rude and disrespectful he was. At that point, I just wanted my money back and walk out of there. This doctor is crazy and greedy. He then makes me feel guilty that I wasted his time. He could have had someone else do the surgery right now.
This just shows that Lifestyle Lift is a money hungry corporations who don't give a ### about their patients. They only care about our money. I am one of the few fortunate people who got their deposits back. I would not recommend ANYONE to Lifestyle Lift, especially this nasty doctor.

I just had a LTS procedure-it was difficult at first, as I had nausea to the medication given during the procedure.I am also have sensitive skin, and am 62 years old.However, after 2 months, and cetainly some discomfort from the nerve pain and skin healing, I look way younger than I ever expected, and have added improvements in areas I was not focussing on.It has opened up my entire face, eyes, and mouth crease areas.The doctor was very skilled.
Some of the articles here seem exaggerated.
The one beef I have is the quality of pre and post care, and the overall state of cleanliness there.They are so busy from the response to the advertising, that you become a number...there is no personal attention.
I would suggest that anyone contemplating this procedure should thoroughly go into ALL the details first, then take some time to make a decision, so that you are sure.

I was really contemplating having this done...going to be 62 and all, but this is some scary [censored]. I did not imagine any of what I have read from listening to the commercials. They make it sound like this is an ALTERNATIVE to surgery. I think I will take the advise of those who have seen this first hand. It's always a good idea to take responsability for one's own health and wellbeing. Having taken a second look...I look pretty darn good for my age, thank God. I think I'm nixing this whole idea. Thanx All.

Too bad Notal. I had a Lifestyle Lift several years ago and it was wonderful. Nothing scary about it...absolutely NO scarring. The results are guaranteed for 5 years. It is now about 8 years since I had my procedure. I am now going to book another. You missed out Notal. However, you can still change your mind

I agree with Thinkb4uact. Please read the BBB and the complaints about LSL before going in there and believing what they say about how quick and easy it is. Although it is a lot of money, the major concern is the 'excrutiating pain' you'll have for a long time and the scars you'll have for life. Unless you like wearing your hair close to your face to hide the scars and not wear your hair up because the scars show behind your ears too, DON'T do it... If you feel/look that bad before going in and determined to have something done, go to a reputable cosmetic surgeon that you have checked out thoroughly and not to LSF where thay have a quota so they 'slice n dice' and then call "NEXT"...

I know two people who had this done over a year ago and they have been suffering ever since. It was an assembly line, The scars they still have and the pain around the ears are terrible. If I could, I would stand outside their door and beg people to reconsider. After watching what they went through and are still going through I wouldn't care if I had bags of fat under my chin, I wouldn't let them take that away and leave those awful scars behind and the pain that still goes with it. I think the 'after shots' should be close ups of the ear (all around the ear). The scars are the whole length of the front of the ear.
People have this procedure done because of low self esteem and BELIEVE the commercials. Nothing is as it seems. As they say "if if seems too good to be true----it probably isn't". In this case, run away, far far away from Lifestyle Lift.

I'm in my late 30's and am trying to decide what I should do...age gracefully- exercise, diet, etc...or take advantage of the options my Mother didn't have. The last thing I want to is look in the mirror and cry every time I look at a botched job...LifeStyle lift does claim there is almost no downtime but in all the research I've done thus far- everyone says that's far from true...about 2 weeks of bruising/swelling and pain. I wish I knew someone personally who has gone through the procedure. I feel the same however as Reality- we cannot think of plastic surgery the same as buying a pair of shoes- it's a big decision and you have to spend a lot of time researching your doctor and having numerous consultations. If it takes talking with the doctor 4 or 5 times before making a decision- do it. Be 100% sure before saying yes.

We are a society of people that is full of complaints, oftentimes malicious, because we didn't get something we wanted. Such procedures, any cosmetic procedures, are not without risks. For every unsatisfactory surgery result, the same doctor probably performed hundreds of successful procedures. Many factors contribute to how things will turn out. Stop complaining and focus on what are the real issues...our own insecurities, lack of self-esteem, lack of exercise, poor diet, overexposure to sun, smoking, drinking, etc. For heaven's sake, every other person inAmerica is on antidepressive/anxiety meds. Take control of your own lives, without blaming everybody else for your dissatisfaction. Just my opinion.

I haven't had a lifestyle lift and haven't even done much research on it. However, I have a real problem with an ### who would schedule any procedure with any professional, and then have their second thoughts after the procedure started and equipment, space and personnel resources were committed, and then expect ALL their money back like Ana. Take some responsibility for your own actions.

Lifestyle Lift False Advertising

The informercial for Life Style Lift is a lie. They advertise a "new procedure" which takes only about an hour for drastic results. They equate the "procedure" with "going to the dentist" and they make out that you can return to work "in a few days" and even show a woman going out to lunch afterward. What they are really selling is a partial face lift without putting you under. You feel them cutting you with a scalpel, doing surgery on you with only a local anesthetic. You feel the tugging and pressure, and smell your own flesh burning as they cauterize. Afterward you are radically pressure bandaged, swollen and bruised with dark black sutchers. You are pretty much out of commission, looking and feeling horrid for a month or more. The scarring is terrible, the trauma stays with you. AVOID THIS COMPANY. If you've had this procedure, contact me to learn more about a possible lawsuit.

I put down a 600.00 deposit down and the day of the procedure the doctor told me life style lift had gone bankrupt, I asked the doctor to pay me back and he said life style lift would have to pay me back. I have called more than twenty times with no response. Now the phone number is out of order. I want my money back! ASAP! Is there an attorney already taking on this case?

All i have to say is their customer service skills suxed and the dr on call when you had a question after hours was rude and it seem like your call was a brother . They nevered mention to my mother that she will have bad scars behind the ears my mother also told me she felt them cutting her and pulling and tugging she almost felt like she was shoking...Would never recommended it nobody...FOR THE MONEY YOU PAY AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE YOU RECIEVE AND ALL THE 'SUGAR CODING" AS SOME PEOPLE WOULD SAY ITS NOT WORTH IT.

Today I went for a free consultation in the Burlington, Mass. office, it sounded so great so I put down a four hundred dollar deposit. The women whom I talked to told me the Dr. has high credentials. I also noticed she seemed liked she rushed me into the deposit, which I was a little skeptical of. Now that I read these reviews I don't think I'll be getting this done, too scary!

I am supposed to be going on March 18th, I am now even more scared than I was. I think I'll forfeit
the $400 deposit and back out. The girl who interviewed us was so thorough and believable and the
Doctor she appointed for my friend and myself comes with high credentials and is supposed to be
the "head" of it all. This is in Burlington Ma. I wish they had people you could talk to who had had the
procedure performed, that''s what is needed. I'm going to talk to my girlfriend and rethink all of this.
Thank you to all of you for posting your complaints. We also noted the the hurried way in which they
wanted to book us and take the deposit, just not right. Too bad, we all want to believe, like they say if
it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.

Myself, daughter and son had the procedure and all are very unhappy...look the same as before. We all were told they would re do us, my daughter and myself refused but my son had the second procedure he is still unhappy. I turned out local TV station on to these people and we just had an interview with them Friday. The story will air next month (FEB) I am still after these people for lying and taking you money without giving you what you are paying for I paid $6, 350 to get my chin tighten and it still looks the same. I have to go to a plastic surgeon to fix it the way it should be. I am still trying to get my money back.Please do not go to these false adverting people pay a little more and go to a real plastic surgeon. You can email me if you want...evanwilliams2009@hotmail.com

We went yesterday for the free consultation in Tampa. The thing that bothered us the most was the high pressure selling and the "discount" if you sign today. When they saw I was not going to sign at that moment, they lost all interest in me and started pressuring my friend. We called them this morning and was prepared to do this. After reading these complaints and I know there is always good and bad - I am re-thinking this and will go to a regular plastic surgeon. If there were only a few complaints I wouldn't think to much about it but these are pretty serious complaints. I don't know if it is because people didn't follow the Dr's instructions or what. I'm just a bit nervous.

Lifestyle Lift No results, no difference

They charged thousand of dollars to cut me up leaving horrible scars behing my ears. Thank god they are not that visible. Nonetheless, the results were none. They falsy advertize that you can look 10 years younger and more. They show you these woman full of make-up. Anybody can look like a million bucks with the right make-up. The fact is my face looks the same, in fact my face is sagging even more, and the results are suppose to last 10 years. They refused to refund my money. Money that I might as well have thrown in the garbage. If there is anybody with the same experience please let me know what we can dol

I also went to the San Mateo office. Bad results and bad scaring behind the ears. Also, I still have itching. I went back to complain and was kept waiting 3 hours past my appt. time. (I guess they thought I might go away!) The "doctor" gave me the runaround and then dismissed me as if I were a non entity! If any one starts a class action suit against the people, count me in. I look worse than I did before the procedure.

I also had a proceedure done by LSL and they then redid the proceedure because the first time it did not go well. my chin was lobsided and my ears are pinned to my head. I now have these cord like scars in back of my ears and a scar under my chin that looks like I was slashed by some serial killer. By the way, I looked better before the surgery.

I also had LSL with poor results, my scares we visiable on my neck, they offerd to tweek it up, i agreed only to find they did the whole LSLagain, now i have numbness on my ears and thick scares.i was out of work for two weeks . This is not a small proceedure. i did not get good results even having it done twice. One day i was sitting in the aftercare waiting room ther were 5 women waiting 4 were there after having it done twice one lady was on her third time . I would not have this done again. they did not charge me for the second time but the recovery time was painful and loss of work. I would never have this done again. and would not recomend anyone else doing it . they blamed it on the Dr. they got a new Dr.and now are asking me if i thought the results were the same with the new DR.I think they can not get the results promised, i don't think it is possiable .

Thanks Eve, I did all of that paperwork and have never heard back from any government agency or any Medical Association or Affiliate. I finally got CBS TV46 here in Atlanta to listen to me and 3 other women. There was suppose to be a 6 part series on the Lifestyle Lift. Well, after the 4th I think, the Interview with Dr. Kent, he ended the interview suddenly and the next day filed a defamation suit against tv46 and Stephanie Fisher the reporter. So, that was last year. The video is still up at youtube.com if anyone is interested in seeing it. Just put Lifestyle Lift in the search engine and it will pull up all the videos to date including the one about LSL being sued for $300.000 for internet posing. Posting as clients of LSL when they were actually employees. Realself.com is the only other site now that will let up post. Infomercialscams.com is gone.

You should contact the State Attorney General's Office and report and document your experience with this group. Also, contact the American Medical Association, specific to the doctor that operated on you, and provide whatever documentation you can. Also check if that doctor has any certifications and or complaints filed against him/her, lawsuits pending or past. You can sue him individually or as a "class action" if you can locate other "victims" who feel like you do. Document all your problems and symptoms carefully- in court, documentation is everything...good luck. You do have a recourse to deal with your experience.

I agree with Dina and the poster of this complaint. Not only did I have the same LSL experience, I have found them to be unethical and on the edge of being dishonest to a fault. They should not be able to legally operate on any live human being. I have had the same experience. Many women at realself.com and infomercialscams.com ALSO share the same experiences. If only the right Governmental Agency would come across this, or the right kind of law firm that would do it pro-bono, maybe they could be stopped. Until then the only thing that we can do is try to warn unsuspecting people suckered into their Mega-Marketing machine.
