Love love love Dr. Shanklin and my post op ladies Casey, Carmen, and Ani…read more I had tummy tuck December 2024 with Shanklin after losing 120 pounds. And he got my stomach flat and my back rolls down from 2 to 1. lol. So that definitely boosted my confidence and I'm forever grateful. I then came back mid January for bbl and lipo 360 and so far I am loving my results. He is so kind. But also know that in order to get answers from him you have to have your questions ready. He soft spoken and is a man of few words. The nurses in the waiting after surgery are a little bitchy but that doesn't bother me because I can be very bitchy as well. That is something that they can work on, is how they treat patients after having surgery. But I also hear this about other clinics not just Smart Plastics. However I will be returning to Dr. Shanklin to finish the next phase of my weight-loss and plastic surgery journey.

I'm extremely dissatisfied with the surgeon and with Smart Plastic Surgery…read more My surgery was done by Dr. Pittman. He confirmed with me beforehand that I only needed Lipo 360. But on surgery day, while he was marking me, he changed his story and told me I actually needed a tummy tuck and that he could only take a very limited amount of fat out, saying I needed to diet and exercise. If I'm supposed to diet and exercise, then why on earth am I coming to you? What am I paying you for if that's the solution? It felt like he just didn't want to take out much because he was trying to rush me. He had 10 or 15 more people to do that same day. After surgery, I was in a lot of pain. Be aware that they don't give you any pain medication through your IV in recovery -- the anesthesia only puts you to sleep. You come out of anesthesia with nothing for pain and have to wait for the person picking you up before they'll discharge you. They don't give you any paperwork or paper trail. They make you sign so many papers and don't give you anything, not even your receipt. I asked over and over for my receipt and they wouldn't give it to me. I was in Miami for five days before going back to Los Angeles. On my second day of massages, I kept asking for my paperwork and receipt because I had to pay for my massage package. When they finally gave it to me, I noticed they overcharged me for everything. When I tried to speak to someone about it, no one was there or the office was closed. It's been two weeks since surgery and I have not been checked on. No one has called to see how I'm doing or to express any concern. They shut you down, they overcharge you, and they don't do good work. I noticed he took out very little fat and what he did take out is uneven. I think he did one swipe on each area. It was a waste for me to pay all that money and go through so much pain for a botch job. I'm still in a lot of pain. This is a horrible doctor. Do not go to Smart Plastic Surgery at all. But if you're still thinking about going anyway, do NOT choose Dr. Pittman. They are money hungry. They will rob you and barely do thing.

When I reviewed my implant card, it showed 295cc. When I asked Dr. Poser about this, I was told that based on my body type, a smaller size would achieve the look I wanted. While I understand that surgeons use their professional judgment, the final result does not align with what I requested, and I wish there had been clearer communication and agreement prior to surgery. My post-op experience was also frustrating. After following all aftercare instructions, I noticed one of my incisions had opened. I reached out right away with photos and a phone call, but it took about a week to get a response. I was told to use Polysporin, but the wound seemed to worsen. I sent additional photos and updates but experienced a much longer delay in hearing back. Out of concern, I went to the ER where tests confirmed there was no infection, but I still had an open wound. I eventually went to a post-op specialist I've trusted from previous procedures, and with their guidance, the wound began to improve within days. Overall, the lack of timely communication and follow-up care made this experience much more stressful than it should have been. While I respect the medical aspect of the procedure, I do regret choosing this provider due to the outcome and the level of post-operative support.

I had contemplated getting it for so long because I was flat-chested. I lost a lot of weight the previous year so getting a breast augmentation was the cherry on top for my confidence. I also wanted to get minor liposuction on my stomach. I had a pocket of stubborn fat underneath my belly button that would not go away no matter how many sit-ups I did. I called to set up my consultation and dealt with Lucy. She was so nice and made me so happy. I remember getting off the phone and smiling because I was so excited about my consultation. Consultation: The following Tuesday I arrived at my consultation. I was so nervous but the entire staff made me feel comfortable and they were so welcoming. I changed into the gown and Dr. Craft came in with a sweet nurse! I didn't get her name but she has always been so sweet! He spent a lot of time with me! He went over everything, answered all my questions, gave his advice, and listened to what I WANTED. He was so informative and I knew that I wanted to start the process. I want to say I was almost there for an hour. Weighing my options, listening to the pros and cons, and asking questions. I'm so thankful for the consultation because I left very confident and firm on my decision. I ended up picking 415 cc of silicone, high profile. I wanted to be a full C or D cup so this was my best option. Blood work: I came back a few weeks later where I met Cybil! The most amazing person in the world! Gosh, I love that girl! She took my blood and informed me about everything! What to do, what not to do, and everything I needed to do before my surgery. I got a really big packet of paper but left knowing everything that was in that packet. They took before pics, measured me, and answered any questions. During this time I was put in contact with Marilyn who is great! She gave me her phone number and during this entire process, I asked any questions that came to mind. She has always been so sweet and helpful! Procedure: I was extremely nervous since I had never gone under anesthesia before. My surgery was scheduled for 10 am so I followed all the instructions the night before. The anesthesiologist called me the night before asking if I had any questions which made me feel a lot better. When I arrived I got put into the room and got changed into the gown. The recovery nurse April came in and talked me through everything and gave me an anti-nausea pill. She is just the best! I remember her telling me about her son; she was so sweet! She said most people don't remember her much since they get knocked out but how could I forget such a sweet lady! Dr. Craft came in and went over the game plan with me. He marked me up and made sure we were on the same page. I went into surgery 100% confident and excited. I wasn't nervous at all. Everyone was so nice and explained what they were doing to me. I knew I was about to knock out when the lights were swaying back and forth and I was 100% calm. I woke up and April was there, she brought my fiance in and I went hope. Later that night Dr. Craft called me and we talked. He explained to me how the procedure went and told me instructions for going forward. This meant a lot to me and just made me so happy that I picked him to do my surgery. Recovery: As I'm writing this I'm about 6 weeks post op. I have followed their instructions religiously and have worn my fajas 23.5/24 hours a day. The follow-up appointments have been great and the support has been so great. I did lymphatic massages with Janet and she was great!! Since I only got a little bit of lipo I only had to do 4 sessions but it helped reduce the swelling so much. Worth every penny. She was great and I enjoyed getting to know her. Everyone in this office is amazing and I'm so thankful and blessed to have gained the amazing care of the staff and developed many friendships. I seriously wish I worked here so I could hang out with them every day!! Thank you all so much. P.S I LOVE MY RESULTS! They're exactly what I wanted.

This review is for Miami Life Cosmetic Center but for the other branch at 7130 sw 87th ct miami…read more Each clinic and doctors have positives and negatives. I chose this clinic specifically because of Dr Daniel Kaufman. Dr Kaufman is the best, he listens to you, explains everything you have to know regarding your procedure even post op he will show you the details even photos under the table which is amazing in my opinion. Comparable to the Dr I had in the past that I only met during the markings and that's it. The stitches are so low, clean and straight, not all does that. This is a recent honest experience at Miami Life Cosmetic Center, overall is a good choice. I expected this to be a chop shop, which almost everybody says from the fb group, patients go in and out, yes, but the super low prices are unbeatable. Exceptional results and trusted Doctor. So many patients and all the staff are trying their very best to accommodate the needs of everybody. Special mention to Alejandra from the front desk is so sweet, not only she is beautiful, she is patient and she does her job very well. Very good customer service. The building has limited parking. The inside is very neat and clean. I hate the weird smell. The pre op experience was awful, I had to wait 3 hrs inside a room. They have a lot of patients. I wonder how they manage that amount, seeing patients preop, do the surgery, post op. The surgery day, as soon as I wake up in the recovery area, groggy dizzy and with chills, I was discharged right away. I hate the faja which is 2XL very loose, I am a medium. The post op was fast and less wait time with Ms Ingrid. The last visit I had prior the flight, Dr Kaufman was amazing and answered all my questions, he does not rush you, he sees you as a patient and as a person. I was able to see before and after photos. Overall, I don't regret choosing Dr Kaufman who is a board certified surgeon, amazing before and after results, no deaths, and he talks a lot in a positive manner. Highly recommended.

They keep telling me that it takes 30 to 60 business days however the paper I signed said I would receive the refund within 30 days. Not business days.

Based on that written agreement, I canceled my procedure due to unexpected financial circumstances and expected the company to honor the timeline outlined in their own contract. I waited the full 30 days patiently, only to then be told my refund would be delayed even further until June 18, 2026. Meanwhile, thousands of dollars of MY money is still being held, and I still have no completed transaction confirmation available. The most frustrating part is that I specifically made sure to thoroughly read the agreement beforehand to avoid exactly this type of situation. Please be careful before giving this company your money. Read every detail closely, ask questions in writing, and make sure you fully understand how refund disputes are actually handled. My experience has caused unnecessary stress, financial hardship, and disappointment.

This one in particular, Lili, was just the most empathetic and kind soul. I was in a lot of pain and cold. She brought me a blanket and covered me with the care you would get from a sister.
