Stay away from this place!! Dr. Rubenstein is responsible for one of the worst medical experiences of my adult life. I went to Dr. Rubenstein looking for some targeted, light fillers (Botox & Voluma) underneath my eyes and near mouth and the results were a women's worst nightmare! The injections were administered in the most unskilled and negligent manner, causing extreme pain during and after the procedure and resulting in asymmetrical shelves forming underneath my eyes and swelling lumps / severe bruising underneath around my mouth (making it painful to move) that lasted for months post-injections, long after the typical recovery time (2 weeks).
The injections disfigured my face to such an extent that I was too ashamed to leave the house without professional makeup, causing me significant emotional distress as a public-facing attorney, until I went to an experienced plastic surgeon to dissolve the fillers and correct Dr. Rubenstein's abysmal work. Dr. Rubenstein improperly administered and fully botched the procedure - the fillers were injected unevenly and not deeply enough into the wrong areas around the cheeks and lips. This was a procedure that should have never been performed by a internist with limited experience in dermal fillers.
Dr. Rubenstein also oversold me on Voluma injections whereas the desired treatment could have easily been achieved with a lip flip. However, most egregiously, she also offered a discount if I payed for the procedure in cash as an off-the-books patient, an extremely shady proposal that my husband and I immediately rejected.
It is not okay to disfigure someone's face, upsell products to them that they don't require, attempt to charge them as off-the-books patients, and refuse to offer a full refund on something they will have to spend thousands of dollars to fix. Do not trust your well being and physical appearance to this medical practitioner!!
As an officer of the court, it is my duty to warn people against practitioners like Dr. Mila Rubenstein. If you would like to see photos of what Dr. Rubenstein did to my face, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. read more
