The anesthesiologist missed my vein and started filling up my arm with the anesthetic fluid, then he put a mask on me that wasn't working and told me to breathe and I couldn't breathe at all. I couldn't move my head because they had me strapped down so I started kicking my legs and he yelled at me and I tried shaking my head so he took the mask off. I told him there was no air coming from the mask and he told me to relax. He put the mask back on and once again I couldn't breathe. He got so angry took the mask off put it on his own face and then screamed get me a mask that works and threw it across the room. I looked over and Dr. Dyan saw this all happening. When I went back for my follow up because my eyeball was so swollen that I couldn't close my eyelid, he claimed to not being there in that room when the anesthesiologist threw the mask. I just think everyone should do their due diligence before hiring someone to do facial plastic surgery by him. I did not but wish I had because I could've lost my life.

Traumatic and Misrepresented Experience AirScupt…read more I am sharing my experience at AirSculpt Chicago to help others make an informed decision. My experience was deeply traumatic and not at all as advertised. During my consultation, I was told I was a candidate for a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift). The plan was to remove fat from specific areas of my body and transfer it to my buttocks. I agreed to the plan, and paid in full. On the day of the procedure, the doctor refused to perform the areas we had agreed upon, claiming they were "not good options" and that I supposedly did not have enough fat for a transfer. This was directly contrary to what was discussed and paid for, leaving me feeling misled and disregarded. My appointment was scheduled for 7:00 AM. I arrived on time, but I had to wait over three hours before the procedure even began. I sat alone in a cold room, partially undressed, with no explanation or comfort offered. When the procedure finally began, the doctor used a capsule-like device to create the incisions. The assistants did nothing to help -- they simply watched. Through these incisions, approximately two liters of fluid were injected into my body. The long, thick cannula tore through my tissue, causing intense and excruciating pain. I repeatedly informed the staff of the pain, but they ignored me, only saying, "Take a deep breath." The fat-removal process that followed was equally agonizing. At one point, the doctor left the room for about 15 minutes, leaving me cold, frightened, and in pain. When he returned, an oral oxygen was given that caused dizziness but provided no relief. After the procedure, I was quickly dressed, fitted into a compression garment, and handed a small bottle of water and a protein bar. I was sent home while still bleeding from multiple incision points. By the time I arrived home, my clothes and car were soaked in blood. The next morning, I awoke in severe pain, with dried blood all over my body and bedding. This experience was physically and emotionally devastating. AirSculpt promotes their procedures as gentle, minimally invasive, and safe -- my experience was the opposite. Communication was poor, the procedure was extremely painful, and postoperative care was inadequate. I felt deceived, neglected, and unsafe. Final Note / Warning: Please think twice before choosing this clinic. I do not recommend AirSculpt Chicago. This was the most traumatic and painful experience of my life. I hope that by sharing my story, others can avoid a similar ordeal.

I had a breast reduction earlier in July 2025, which was medically necessary. He and his staff explained the procedure & process of every step of to get me back on my feet with my new found changes.

I have an extra gland under my arm, in which he did not remove because he said it would have been too much for me. And he was right. Therefore, he's waiting 90 days after my 6 week post operation to schedule that procedure. I followed his instructions given 4 months prior to surgery and I lost some weight and completely stopped smoking. He cares about your overall health as well as the plastic surgery procedure he is going to perform. I would recommend to any of my Friends and Family who are thinking about having procedures done. He's very upfront about your healing process. I'll comeback in a year and tell you how happy I am with my results!!

The woman who did my Botox was lovely, talked about what I wanted/needed and asked lots of questions about my previous experience so that she could provide the perfect care, which was thoughtful (and also super professional!). The Botox itself was painless (they have the buzzer for you to use which is awesome for someone with no pain tolerance like me!) and was completed in under 20 minutes. It has set in now and I am no longer waking up with headaches/tight jaw, so definitely works for TMJ girlies like myself. I also thought the pricing was super fair, very much in line with what I've paid before and the touchups being included the first two weeks is super generous (I didn't need any, but neat perk!). I will absolutely be back when I need my next dose! Highly recommend this med spa.

His staff in the room works for me as they were all professional, personable and knowledgeable while being open to getting information for me about the look I did not want. Sidebar: I brought in pictures. Anywhoo, the front desk was personable, helpful and professional including my greeting to my exit. Unfortunately, I parked in the wrong ramp so there was no comp. What can improve: 1) follow-up. I didn't hear from anyone after the insurance submission. I don't know if they appealed or have a business manager or office manager that reaches out to just say here's our cost, out of pocket, or if they feel folks wont come up with it. 2) I learned fromy insurance billing that Dr. S is out of my network but I was prepared to pay that BECAUSE I have seen his work and talked to ladies for candid feedback/testimonals. 3) Bill arrived but I didn't see a website to pay online which I would have much rather alas I called in Friday, March 21st and the person that answered was less than stellar compared to my physical visit. To wrap it up, I asked if I may have the receipt emailed and she called out another email address. She sounded incredulous as if I don't know my classic 1990s Yahoo email that I've had since freshmen year. Anywhoo, I'm not the Gmail girl. We have our school email for Life so I use it for business. My point: let's not be testy like I don't know my email. Anywhoo...I, in turn, made it easier for her in this moment: Rather than spell out the school email we'll just slap yahoo on there and be done. Tbh, her response bothered me more than the office lack of follow-up once the denial arrived. C'est la vié. Yes, I can recommend Dr. S for the work seen on others and his let's get it done attitude. The ladies in consult are physicians in training but I don't care for the iPhone being the item used to take personal pictures.

This is the first time I'm writing a review on my procedure. Six years ago I had a skinny bbl done…read moreby Dr Lorri Cobbins. I was naive at the time but I really wanted a little bit added to my bottom so I went in for a consult. I was also really skinny (like model skinny) so even then she told me oh yeah I've had patients your size or smaller do procedures by me, I wish she rejected me or at least did a less risky procedure since her skills didn't match the words I heard. My body was so perfect in every way before this procedure (just wanted a little boost on my bottom). I remember I said "I heard some peoples shoulders get bigger she was like "Oh no that's not true at all." She did Lipo to my stomach which barely had much fat, inner thighs, and back. Anyways 6 yrs later and I'm struggling with my body image. I've lost my confidence, my skinny bbl doesn't look great, can't find a solution because I have skin laxity on my back and stomach, scarring/tethering (again this is from the aggressive lipo she did and how she used the surgical tools), Lipo fibrosis on stomach and back and yes the upper back looks bigger. I followed all the instructions of wearing the compression garment and everything. The problem wasn't the aftercare instructions I perfectly followed, the problem was the poor surgical technique. She did aggressive lipo on me, took out too much fat because I was thin and ruined the look of my skin. I now have 2 rolls on my back that I never had before my procedure and I feel always bloated for some odd reason no matter what I eat healthy or not even though my diet didn't change. I only gained about 10 pounds (still at a weight women would love) but even with that if the surgical skills were good the body would grow out nice and even, it wouldn't look botched. I wish she rejected me and told me to come back in a year or 2 if I want something permanent after I try something temporary. I wish she told me thoroughly and openly what kind of problems can come up (this was only briefly discussed and none of the problems I have now were discussed as potential issues after surgery). I wish she gave me a temporary option or smaller procedure not as damaging as a first solution to see what it would look like. I didn't receive any other options. I think plastic surgeons (especially ones who've had botched outcomes from their work) need to give a couple options and really think about if the contouring will look nice with each option so the patient can have a good long term outcome and more people will trust them for procedures. Dr. Cobbins took away the most thing that made me confident back then and damaged my body. I am struggling in every way imaginable because of this procedure done by Dr. Lorri Cobbins. The most perfect parts of my body were ruined because of horrible surgical technique and now I am left grieving it. I struggle every day to look for a way to fix it and I'm too afraid to go to someone else that may further damage me. I don't take photos anymore like I used to, I don't try on clothes when I shop like I want to. I can't look at myself in the mirror the same way. Please if you want a better/different look try temporary cosmetic things first so they go away if you don't like them and you don't have to live with the permanent result of a botched procedure.
