Sono Bello - Lipo and ex

First off let me start by saying being evaluated by a non-medical sales person who gives you a price of what she thinks you need and then once you get to the doctor he tells you something else but yet you cannot see the doctor unless you pay for your surgery in full red flag. Im a little over 3 months post op I had the EX done along with upper abdomen lower
abdomen in my waists lipo-suctioned and back bra line from my fist week post op I Express to the nurse that one side was bigger then the other she told me it was just swollen here I am 3 months later and I look ridiculous in clothes because one side is bigger then the other my stomach still has fat In it I have a pooch when I sit down which I don't understand because I was told if I got the mini tummy tuck and Lipo that I wouldn't have such a pooch and I'm so embarrassed about the situation I got this done because I'm having my beautiful wedding in June and I wanted to look nice in my dress but I look hideous I look a mess and it makes me very sad because I paid almost $12, 000 for a result like this The "treatments" at Sonobello are not ANYTHING like what they describe. Also when I went to my 3 month post op the nurse kept telling me that the reason my stomach and side are big still is because I have lose skin which didn't make any sense because it clearly say that sonobello gos in wit the laser Lipo always takes out the fat and times of the skin. Which doesn't make sense because I paid for lipo in each area so I shouldn't have fat hanging over my bellybutton and a big pouch when I sit and in the clothing that I wear. I too was mesmerized by the salesperson and pressured into the
purchase. They call and call non stop until they get your payment
This entire procedure. today was my 6months post op and the and the doctor told me I needed a full tummy tuck not a mini tummy tuck but what I don't get is that in the first place I wasn't gonna get a tummy tuck I was just getting lipo he recommended me getting a mini tummy tuck so I paid more money for that to not get the results. so if he recommended me getting a mini tuck why would u tell me on my 6 months post op that I needed a tummy tuck. Pls ladies don't come to this place they only care about the money save your money and go so where that the doctor and staff care.

Sono Bello - Lipo hips lower abdomen stomach

I never did know about this site about complaining but I had surgery with Sono Bello I believe maybe two and a half years ago and they were very great and the beginning 3 2 but after you had your surgery the attitudes of some of the nurses at the Beverly Hills office has turned ugly they're supposed to give you a bodysuit that hold you in but if they don't have your size will give you any size which is not helping when I spoke to him about it they had an attitude and another thing I wasn't satisfied with the work because doing surgery I woke up 2 * so the doctor didn't get a chance to finish no one ever called me I complain to the nurse but still no results

At SonoBello, the sedation is made to "relax", not put a person to literal sleep. The only way a Doctor would not be able to "finish" a procedure are a few reasons:
1)Maximum fat has been reached per state law/guidelines. It's a safety issue. This would result in a second stage procedure.
2) Maximum amount of lidocaine to keep the patient comfortable and calculated from the patient's weight has been reached. Lidocaine toxicity is real and can be fatal.
3) The patient could not "tolerate" the procedure for whatever reason and had "agreed" to stop the procedure.

Experience with this company has been for the most part excellent IF a patient is realistic in their own mind. No magic wands here or anywhere that I'm aware of. A person has to realize every body is different and results do vary according to skin elasticity, age, heredity, comorbidities, overall health, and compliance. Don't be fooled...this is a "tool" not a cure.

They do not do sedation surgery’s at sono bello…..they no to do local anestesia. So how did you “wake up”?

Sono Bello - Liposuction to upper and lower abs, waist, hips, bra rolls

Beware about Sono Bello Beverly Hills! False advertisement, I was told $1295.00 per area over phone when scheduled a consultation. Consultation was done by Ashley Agahi who is a secretary not a doctor, she pressured me to pay now and book the liposuction. I didn't get to pick a Dr. They threw Dr. John F. Hsu, an incompetent cosmetic surgeon who left me looking the same and with bumps everywhere. I wasted $10, 000 for liposuction to waist, hips, bra rolls, upper and lower abs. The lady at the front desk is rude and up in the clouds. The doctor didn't want to here about his mistakes and was kind of rude. The post follow up appointments are with a nurse who is really rude. I had to complain because I wanted to see the Dr. Not the nurse.
