I had my surgery last year. While I still had my cast on, I noticed there was asymmetry, but I…read moredidn't jump to conclusions yet as I put it down to swelling. Further down the line, I naively thought that the asymmetry was caused by mask wearing, however that is just not possible. Upon looking at photos of my Day 6 nose, it is clear to see that the same deformities I am suffering now were evident at that stage as well - which means that the mistakes were made during surgery. However, the problems continued. I tried to tell myself I was happy with the surgery as I had paid $7000 and I naively believed that the deformities would heal up over time. I reached out to Vida clinic with photographic evidence of the lop-sidedness of my nose in September 2025. was told that I would have to wait a few months until my one-year post op review in august, so I did. I had my review and I told Dr Carlos Fuentes my concern, but he did not see the issue, encouraged me to wait longer, and he somehow thought my nose looked great... I contacted Vida again later, attaching photographic evidence of my even worse looking nose. I was told that it was outside of their one-year policy, so I did not pursue any further. In October 2025, after my kept nose getting even worse and I was becoming less happy, I sought a second opinion from Mr Patel ENT. I initially thought I would possibly be receiving steroid injections however I was told that there were numerous issues that would need to be fixed with only a revision rhinoplasty. I was distraught at this news and on the verge of tears, but I was happy that Mr Patel could visibly see my concern instead of gaslighting me like Vida Clinic as to a reasonable person my nose certainly did not look "fine." Mr Patel identified - misplaced cartilage causing the lump (not scar tissue) - no support at tip and will need rib cartilage to fix - v shaped deformity which is the indent/collapse at bridge that will need a graft to fix - significant asymmetry I contacted Harley Health Clinic one last time with this information, however I was unsatisfied with the response. They brushed off Dr Patel's opinion and I would not be given an appointment for several months if I were to be seen upon fee. I do not trust Dr Carlos Fuentes's skills especially as he has not been able to acknowledge any error, and I do not think he would be able to fix my nose. I have been left with PTSD due to my botched rhinoplasty and have had to seek counselling to come to terms with it. I expected my nose would not be perfect, but it is worse than it was pre- surgery. My natural nose was not asymmetrical, nor did it have abnormalities. I had heard stories of a minority of people having their rhinoplasty go wrong but never would I have thought I would be one of those people. My nose just gets worse and worse with time. It is now bigger as it was pre-surgery, except it is worse shaped and with no contour to it at all. I hate being seen from every angle and every lighting now as it just reveals more unflattering faults. Inside my nostril is swollen. I have breathing difficulties. My confidence is shattered. A once confident, bubbly, and happy girl, I have become depressed and no longer enjoy having my photo taken. I complained, but was slapped with "we deny wrongdoing because you signed a consent form" He has a lack of skill especially when it comes to people of colour, and his silence and gaslight his patients when they try to speak out. I have spoken to countless people who have had the same experience with Dr Carlos Fuentes , they just hush it or do their best to hide the truth. People, beware!!

The day after surgery I immediately noticed how uneven my nostrils were. I brought it to his attention and he brushed it off saying it was due to swelling. When I met with him for the cast removal I brought it up again and he said he would charge me $100 MORE to make the good nostril like like the bad one. Not once did he apologize or own up to his mistakes. My tip was lifted although we agreed he would not lift my tip, my bridge has a weird indentation, scars are extremely noticeable and ugly due to his sloppy stitches, nostrils are extremely uneven and shaped differently. I also suffer from breathing problems which is due to a deviated septum that I DID NOT have before surgery. This "surgeon" lacks so much empathy, professionalism, and talent. I now suffer from depression and he also refused to send me MY pictures. He obviously doesn't want to get sued. There was another review I read about him causing nerve damage to someone else. Please be very careful and do lots of research. There is a reason why he does not post good pictures of his work. I also remember waking up on the surgery table and being extremely scared. First time going under anesthesia so not sure if that's normal. Definitely going to look into a lawyer very soon.

It was a great experience at Clinica Clausel. Dr. Marc…read moreChabrier is an experienced physician that did my lipo. When coming from the U.S it's hard to pick a Doctor. What sold me was his meticulous way of explaining my procedure, also there was a procedure that we spoke about online, but when he say me in person, it was not necessary, this gave me even more trust in him since he was honest. The clinic was clean my anesthesiologist was great he made sure I did not have any pain. The reason why I ended chossing the clinic was because Dr. Marc Chabrier only performs one procedure a day and I got one night stay in the clinic with a 24 hr. nurse. I felt like a VIP during my stay here To me this made the difference. The receptionist was also great and helped my family get accommodations. When my family went to the hotel around the surrounding area, the staff had nothing but good things to say about further, cementing my trust and the clinics reputation, Thank you Dr. Marc Chabrier. Fue una gran experiencia en la Clínica Clausel. El Dr. Marc Chabrier es un médico experimentado que me realizó la liposucción. Cuando venies de Estados Unidos, es difícil elegir un doctor. Lo que me convenció fue su meticulosa forma de explicarme el procedimiento. Además, hablamos de un procedimiento en línea, pero cuando examino en persona, no fue necesario. Esto me dio aún más confianza en él, ya que fue honesto. La clínica estaba limpia y mi anestesiólogo fue excelente; se aseguró de que no sintiera ningún dolor. La razón por la que elegí la clínica fue porque el Dr. Marc Chabrier solo realiza un procedimiento al día y tuve una noche de hospitalización con una enfermera disponible las 24 horas. Me sentí como un VIP durante mi estancia. Para mí, esto marcó la diferencia. La recepcionista también fue excelente y ayudó a mi familia a conseguir alojamiento. Cuando mi familia fue al hotel de los alrededores, el personal solo tenía buenos comentarios, lo que consolidó mi confianza y la reputación de la clínica. Gracias, Dr. Marc Chabrie. Mon expérience à la Clinica Clausel a été formidable. Le Dr Marc Chabrier est un médecin expérimenté qui a réalisé ma liposuccion. Quand on vient des États-Unis, choisir un médecin est difficile. Ce qui m'a convaincue, c'est sa façon méticuleuse d'expliquer l'intervention. De plus, une procédure dont nous avions parlé en ligne s'est avérée inutile lors de notre rencontre, ce qui m'a mise en confiance, car il a fait preuve d'honnêteté. La clinique était impeccable et mon anesthésiste était excellent ; il s'est assuré que je ne ressente aucune douleur. J'ai finalement choisi cette clinique car le Dr Marc Chabrier n'y pratique qu'une seule intervention par jour et j'ai bénéficié d'une nuitée avec une infirmière présente 24 h/24. Je me suis sentie comme une VIP pendant mon séjour, et cela a fait toute la différence. La réceptionniste était également très aimable et a aidé ma famille à trouver un hébergement. Lorsque ma famille a séjourné à l'hôtel dans les environs, le personnel n'a eu que des éloges à faire, ce qui a renforcé ma confiance et la réputation de la clinique. Merci, Dr Marc Chabrier.

Dr. Yesenia is in regular contact and always answers my questions promptly. All the after care advice I have been given is spot on.

Every single person on staff was truly incredible from start to finish--I felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for the entire time. Dr. Flores uses high-quality implants, which made a huge difference compared to the ones I had done 12 years ago. The level of surgical skill is honestly impeccable. I didn't even realize how poorly my previous procedure had been done until I went through this experience--this was on a completely different level. What stood out most was how heard and listened to I felt throughout the process. Dr. Flores really delivered on the results I was hoping for. I've also had ongoing support from Dr. Yessenia, who has been consistently available to answer questions and guide me through healing, which made a huge difference in my recovery and peace of mind. This was my third plastic surgery procedure in Mexico, and I can confidently say I won't go anywhere else in the future. Highly, highly recommend.

I just looked them up on MySharp.com and they didn't know my dermatologist but his front desk assistant, Magna, was so sweet to squeeze me in the schedule, give me directions and check on me while I was waiting to see the doctor. Dr. Cardona was so personable and explained every step. I know my injury was comparable to a paper cut (taking only 9 tiny stitches) in his world but he said that I was right to come in and treated me with the utmost care. He gave me the same time and care as he did all of his other patients who, I noticed, were severely injured and in real need of surgery. They all put me at ease and treated me as a person instead of a number. And I was in and out of there in less than 2 hours with NO appointment !!

Dr. T was also very confident throughout our interactions, which reassured us in our decision to go with his practice. Lastly, my wife did experience a "hiccup" during the recovery, but was handled just fine under the care of Dr. T and his amazing staff. That serves as a testament of his experience and skills in handling the risks associated with cosmetic surgery. So while there are many options in San Diego for a cosmetic surgeon, the above will help highlight the difference between making a good choice, and the right choice.

Where do I begin? I went in for a breast lift with implants and came out looking like…read moreFRANKENSTEIN!!! First thing went wrong was the dr. I believe put in too big of implants than my body can handle. About 3 days after surgery my nipples started turning black and dying. And then 1 week later I go in just to have the Dr. RIP OUT MY IMPLANTS WHILE I AM STILL AWAKE! Talk about traumatizing!!! The dr then told me to go to hyperbaric treatment to try to save my nipples (ON MY OWN DIME) I had to pay $2,500 for this treatment that did not work!!!! I had to live over 1 month with 2 hard dead nipples. I truly believe he had no idea what to do, he thought they would heal and everything would be happy dandy. About a month later I went in for him to completely tear off my right dead nipple and then half of my left nipple luckily I was able to keep some of my left nipple. The T incisions became infected leaving me with gaping holes the size of silver dollars. I was then connected to a wound vac to both of my breasts for damn near 2 months to heal my holes and non existent right nipple. Almost A YEAR LATER, he finally put my implants in again and lo and behold they were smaller thank god but SMALLER!!! Tiny!! Doesn't even look like a boob job they are saggy and so sad!!! Once my implants finally healed, he "googled" some tattoo shops to tattoo me a nipple and sent me on my way, oh I also had to pay for the nipple I lost because of him. Please for the love of god to NOT GO HERE!!!! Save yourself and your body. This has been the most traumatic experience I have ever gone through in my entire life. I just wanted to get my boobs fixed from childbirth and having 2 completely different sized breasts my whole life, to coming out looking like a damn freak!!!!!! I will never be the same again

He performed my…read morebreast explant surgery without capsulectomy, and the entire process exceeded my expectations. I had no drains and virtually no pain. Honestly, the hardest part of recovery was reminding myself that I had just had surgery because I felt so good afterward, I had to consciously slow myself down and take it easy. That alone speaks volumes about Dr. Park's skill and technique. I am now two weeks post-op and I am beyond happy with my results. My breasts look almost better than what I started with. Even with the steri-strips still on, my incision is clearly healing beautifully. I've had no swelling, no bruising, and my recovery has been incredibly smooth. Dr. Park is truly gifted, and I felt confident and well cared for every step of the way. If you're considering explant surgery and want a surgeon who prioritizes precision, comfort, and outstanding results, I highly recommend Dr. Gregory Park.

I was also receiving text messages with surgery instructions while I was literally sitting in the lobby, which made the whole process feel very disorganized and unsettling.
