    Spent 14k fixing what this doctor did to me. He is an incompetent surgeon who left me in severe pain and refused to correct his mistakes.

    I went to Dr. Younger because I had broken my nose and I decided to have the bump on the upper part…read moreof my nose, filed down a little, at the same time. He drew me a quick sketch, that I wish I had paid more attention to, or brought someone with me for the consultation. After he talked about my nose he said that I should consider a chin implant as well, to make my face look more preportioned. I was really taken back by that. Post op, I noticed a gouge, about a 1 cm indentation, at the very top of my nose, so I asked him about it, and he was very dismissive. He was talking with his medical student, like they had no idea what I was talking about. It took me about 5 years before I could put any type of weight over the bridge of my nose, so I had to buy new glasses. Fortunately, I found a pair with a very light Titanium frame. I would not recommend Dr. Younger. He has a very poor bedside manner, and his skill as a surgeon is questionable. Either that or he let a medical student work on me, without proper guidance, and maybe the medical student slipped. Either way, he did not examine my nose, he just sat behind his desk; and he wasn't honest about it.

    I was referred to Dr. Younger by my ENT, who said Dr. Younger is good at what he does. Dr. Younger…read moredid an amazing job on my nose back in October 2014. My nose was badly broken since I was 11 years old. I was fully recovered by August 2015 after all the follow-ups. Thank you very much, Dr. Younger.

    Dr Carr did a great job. Yes, I'm happy with the results…read more Don't go to Korea, and especially do not go to China to do this. Corrective surgery, Cosmetic Surgery done well. I'd post pics, but fear I'd be condemned to the doghouse, which by writing this, I almost am. So just use your imagination of just how great the results can be. The staff there are nice and polite and very professional. Discreet is the word. Call in for a consultation.

    I was considering a face lift and consulted with Dr. Carr (actually, mostly with his assistant - he…read morebasically confirmed what she said. That's the last I saw of him until I was on the table). After the consultation, the assistant brought me into her office and gave me a date. She said I should book it right away and that the cost would be $14000 - half of which had to be paid right then and the remainder at 3 weeks before surgery. I said I would think it over. When I called back the next day, I was quite smugly told that I could not have that date, as I had not booked it right away and someone else did. I had a face lift, eye lift and chin liposuction in Nov., 2013. For some reason, Dr Carr did not follow the line of my right eye, so now I have a scar that is parallel to my eye brow, which is easily seen. The face lift was a complete waste of money. Even now, I have a lot of numbness on both sides of my face and still have lots of signs of aging. As a matter of fact, I think I look older after the surgery. The chin liposuction was good; really took away the double chin. However, that area of chin is completely numb, even after doing the stroke exercises ad nauseam! Also note that, after the surgery, there is a lot of work involved for the recipient. I had to stroke my face an endless number of times a day, wrap my head in stretch bandages for a while, use special face cleansers (which they charge you $60 for), had to partially sit up to sleep, etc. It is no walk in the park! I had a couple of regular appointments after that with a nurse. Had one follow-up with Dr. Carr. After that, I became quite ill and was hospitalized for 15 days. My husband called them to cancel an appointment I couldn't keep. That was the last I heard of them! They never called me back for more follow up! I think that there is no need to go to this doctor for any work. He is way too expensive and not in any way superior to other cosmetic surgery work I have seen in others. My friend had upper and lower eyelid surgery done by a doctor on Broadway (don't remember his name but can get it) and she looks great! Her doctor did not cut outside of the shape of her eye, so she has no scar coming straight out over her eye. I was not satisfied with the quality of the work or of the way I was treated. In my opinion, you are pressured to sign up. Also, please remember, once you pay your money, they will not refund it if you do not want to go ahead with the surgery. About the only way you will get your money back is if you have a letter from god or a letter from a specialist saying the surgery would be too dangerous for your health.
