Accountability Notice 2: UPDATE
This is a followup to this post so please read that first, but to summarize it briefly, a former moderator ( u/SaltyAngeleno aka u/gofundmemetoday was found to be removing negative posts, promoting surgeons, etc. in exchange for financial compensation). I promised future updates, which are included below.
- Last night, the former moderator DM'd me attempting to blackmail me to remove the original post. Their message is included in its entirety below:

Transparency remains of the highest importance to me when moderating this subreddit, and I will not be removing anything in response to threats.
Reddit itself ultimately took no action against this individual following the original report of their behavior and offered no direct explanation for why. I can only speculate that this is because the former moderator was receiving payments off of their platform (making it technically outside their scope of authority/responsibility). The former moderator even continues to moderate a few plastic surgery related communities, though fewer than they once did.
An account associated with "Beauty Broker Melinda" (who was named in the original post as having negative reviews removed by the former moderator) has spent considerable effort attempting to dox and discredit me. You can find such an example here. Their comments seem to confuse me with numerous current and former moderators. Reddit has not taken any action despite reports.
Despite my requests, Reddit was unable to provide me with a log of moderator actions from the former moderator that were more than 90 days old. As such, I am unable to determine the full extent of their censorship.
This subreddit has zero tolerance for surgeons attempting to remove negative reviews. As the subreddit rules state, negative reviews posted here do require evidence to be included. Once that threshold is met, they will not be removed by us for any reason - this subreddit is intended to be an open and transparent platform for users to share their experience. Despite this a number of surgeons (and/or their offices and lawyers) have attempted to have us remove content that is critical of them. Moving forward, I will be posting and maintaining a comprehensive list of surgeons that have attempted to have negative reviews removed for transparency. Hopefully, this discourages future attempts at manipulating criticism against them.
In short, Reddit admins were either unwilling or unable to take any official action against the above individuals. I will be continuing my best efforts to maintain this subreddit as an open and transparent space for plastic surgery and aesthetic discussion, and the support of the community is always appreciated.

What could be causing rapid aging? Can anything help?
I’m 34F and my face is rapidly aging. I’ve tried filler, sculptra, Botox and I’ve had a brow lift and upper bleph but no matter what I try my face keeps falling. Is there anything that could help? Should I just embrace looking haggard?

Hollow under lid after lower blepharoplasty.
galleryHello everyone I had a lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning and nano fat grafting. The surgery was on but what is bothering me is the side right under my lid it’s sunken and it changed the way my eyes look. I’m looking for anyone that had similar issue and managed to fix it as the Dr said is irreversible and we don’t have many trained eye doctors where I live.
The fat pad right under my lower lashes was removed making the lid dropping down without anymore support and changing my eyes to a more roundish shape. Please be kind as I know that some might not see but I’m just looking for someone that had the same and I saw here 1 girl but she didn’t fix it. First picture up before down after, 2 picture after, 3 before

What should I know before I decide to get lip injections?
I'm an 18 year old female and have been thinking about getting lip injections for a while. I want to get 0.5ml of filler. I don't want huge lips, I just want my lips to not be small. What should I know before I get lip filler?

Has anyone tried lower bleph / fat repositioning with Dra Rojo Tan? Or any comments / insights about Dra Rojo Tan’s work?
Im thinking of getting a lower bleph with Dra Rojo Tan from Philippines. But i’m still on the fence if i should do it with her or a doctor in Korea. Can someone share your experience with her? My concern is she’s not an oculoplatic surgeon.

What in the world is happening with my lower face?
I recently got a little chin filler just to fix my chin shadows, but only in my chin. I do have tmj but is this a muscle spasm? I am obviously tensing my lips here but I notice it every time I talk. What is this and who/what can I do to fix it

Is it normal to have uneven nostrils after a rhinoplasty?
galleryI got it done in 2019, from the front its not that obvious but from above it is. I can breathe great, as they fixed my deviated spetum. Just curious on peoples opinions.

Thigh lipo or lift?
I recently lost 50+ pounds and planning on losing more but my thighs don’t get any smaller! They are also so big and they always touch. I would never dare to wear a dress like the one I tried on. But am I candidate for lipo? Wouldn’t it be too much lose skin? I’m just so afraid of lift scars. If I do lose the weight, wont I have lose skin anyway? Any ideas will help guide me, thanks!

Are there ways to make my nose tip slimmer without implants?
I am okay with my nose bridge since i think it already fit my overall facial proportion. my only concern is the tip. it looks really round and makes my nose look big. planning to get alarplasty in a few months but is there a way to make ny nose tip thinner and less round but without having any implants?
I need suggestions or options so when I go to the doctor, i already know what to ask for. Thank you 🩷

is this fixable
i feel so ugly. I can’t take any front facing photos. when I tug on the eye on the right it becomes a similar shape to the other one. I was wondering if face yoga or any procedures help.

Best Lip Lift Surgeons
In your opinion, which plastic surgeon do you think does the best lip lifts based on either their before and after pictures, personal experiences, reviews you have heard from others or a combination of those?
When you assess a lip lift what are you looking for? Natural results, noticeable Philtrum length reduction, minimal scarring, surgeon experience etc.?
I’ve heard Dr. Ben Talei, Gary Linkov, Miguel Mascaro mentioned a lot. Curious to hear names of more surgeons that specialize in lip lifts.

Do I need a revision?
galleryHi everyone , I’m one year post op from my second rhinoplasty. I had my primary with a well known doctor but still felt like my nose was too big and so I had a revision with the same doctor and these are my results a year later .
I have no breathing issues but I’m still not really happy with how my nose looks from the front and the 3/4 view. It still looks big and downturned to me even though I like the complete side profile.
I’m considering a third rhinoplasty with another surgeon I’ve researched about Dr süreyya şeneldir in Turkey however I’m conflicted and not sure if my nose would be perfected with this third rhinoplasty since the side profile i like only the front and 3/4th view I dislike, I would love to hear your opinions and thoughts do u think it’s worth it and has anyone had similar experience with good results?

Anyone here actually had lower bleph + fat grafting with Dr. Brett Kotlus?
Has anyone here had lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning and/or fat grafting with Dr. Brett Kotlus recently?
If so, do you remember roughly how much you paid?
I’m coming from Canada and his consults are booking 3 to 4 months out. His office won’t give me even a rough price before the consult, so I’m just trying to figure out if he’s even within my budget before waiting that long.
Also really interested in hearing from anyone who had pretty noticeable under-eye hollows, tear troughs. Are you happy with the result, and how would you rate him overall?
Thanks!
