I went to see Dr Short for some light filler for my lips to even them out, and smooth the edges without creating that balloon lip look. She recommended I purchase a full tube of Juvederm Volbella. We did my upper lip, a small area under my nose, 2 small areas at the corners of my lips. It looked great! She said to even it up, I would need to purchase ANOTHER TUBE of Volbella for the bottom lip, then she added some along side the creases at the sides of bottom lip . She added the second tube of Volbella, 2 weeks AFTER the first syringe was placed in the upper lip and all swelling and bruising was gone. Photos were taken AGAIN. The upper lip, sides and under my nose all still looked good, swelling and bruising gone, edges still equal and smooth. I was told this product would last up to a year or more.
So I have tube #2 placed, and again if looked fine, no problems,but now today,I am ONE MONTH POST FIRST PROCEDURE ON MY UPPER LIP, the upper lip is now deflated, lopsided, the right side edges are wrinkled and the crease under my nose she placed the Volbella is back.
I called the office and talked to Melissa. She said to come in and let the Dr Short see the areas. I went in, 2 of the staff members totally agreed they could see the issues and problems, ( won't mention names because I have read what her employees say about how demanding, unfair, she is to work for).
So they take PHOTOS AGAIN to compare original, my post follow -up Vobella on upper lip appt., to now photos. Then they send the staff member back in to ask me " what bothers me most? ". I said what bothers me is i paid almost $1000.00 to have my lips fixed, Dr Short said would last up to a year of more, and you would have to be blind not to see this is not holding up. She said " ok, just need to let " her" know".
Now, in comes Melissa with my chart, NOT DR SHORT. SHE says," well Dr Short feels, that if you compare your ORIGINAL,PRE VOLBELLA PHOTO, to now, she sees some improvement. I said look at this lopsided lip? And the crumbled right side? Melissa says, " well, we can't ever expect our lips to be even". I said, THAT IS WHAT I PAID DR SHORT TO DO AND SHE SAID SHE COULD. Melissa says, well Dr Short says, if you want it fixed, you have to buy another tube ($475.00), of Volbella, and she'll fix it. So I say, basically, she tells me this will last a year and fix the problem of my uneven lips, and it DIDN'T, SO TOO BAD SO SAD? It's not even been one month. ( smh)
I said,I've heard enough. She didn't have the decency to come in here to see the mess herself, and sent you in to do her dirty work!
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HER. I've worked with Dr's as around plastic surgeons over 30 years as an RN. This BEHAVIOR speaks volumes and speaks for itself. read more
