Laser lipo

I went to sono bello to have lipo. I am also a breast cancer survivor. I mention the breast cancer because after having reconstructive surgery to both breasts I went to sono bello in an attemt to feel better about my body image. The procedure was not only painful but I was the last case of the day and I felt rushed through the procedure. I did not have suffiant anaesthesia and felt almost every push, yank and pull during the procedure. I had a long recovery and also had significant scars for a procedure that was supposed to be minimally invasive with quick recovery. When I returned to sono bello with complaints I was told to keep using compression garment. I have a tender area that is palpable and I believe it was a herniation created by the aggressive liposuction. When I returned again I was not examined and not even given a prescription for a sonogram or ctscan. Again I was advised to use compression garment and the MD did not even touch me. This experience was humiliating.
On another note. Sonobello told me that the surgeon and the second MD who saw me no later anger work for them. I am very suspicious of this. When I came to them I was hoping to feel Better after body image s/p breast cancer. I have a horrible lumpy abdomen, a non semetrical waisted line. Scars that are very visible and constant abdominal discomfort. Also a possible hernia the was created by sonobello and the painful agressive liposuction done to me.

What’s the significant of cause no HARM? - The
Department of Psychology of Earlham College


WHEREAS psychologists in the United States,
through their major professional organization, the American Psychological
Association (APA), have adopted a set of ethical principles that includes the
principle of Beneficence and Non-malfeasance (Principle A), which declares that
psychologists should strive, in their work, "to do no harm" and
should "seek to safeguard the welfare and rights of those with whom they
interact" and the principle of Respect for People's Rights and Dignity
(Principle E), which declares that psychologists should "respect the
dignity and worth of all people" and explicitly recognizes that
"special safeguards may be necessary to protect the rights and welfare of
persons or communities whose vulnerabilities impair autonomous decision making";
and
Healthcare is a life and death
business. Consumers want to feel their best interests are being protected. For
example, consumers want their physician to be licensed and ethical to practice
medicine, the medication they are prescribed to be safe, and the surgical
instruments to be sterile and clean! Healthcare is also very expensive.
Individuals and companies want to be protected from fraud, uncontrolled cost,
and mismanagement. Also, the government subsidizes healthcare costs for
millions of Americans, so the government has an enormous financial stake in
what services are provided and how healthcare is billed. These factors have led
to a highly regulated and heavily scrutinized industry.





I agree no one should be treated differently
cause of monetary, status or power. That said, there were no consequences for
Sono Bello Body Contouring. Patience medical history revealed she’s keloid
prone, nevertheless. The Surgeon operated; during the procedure, I recall
attempting removing someone's hand from my breast area. The Horrific the
surgery left me with severe hearing loss and facial scarring.

Lipo

I had lipo on my stomach and back well when I went back for six month check up the doctor told me I would need another surgery to make my stomach flat and if course that would cost more money. The nurse told me to use a rolling pin to flatten the uneven places. I'm not paying them another dime they will just have to send my account to collections.

Sono bella

The say you can lose up to 50 or 60 pound with these balloons that they place inside your stomach that they fill with gas and air that cause u to have indigestion and feel
Bloated but they are suppose to fill you up and you are to not feel hungry well that is a lie. I spent 7000.00 on this I am more hungry and in pain with these balloons I haven't lost not one pound with these balloons it is false advertisement. I have been walking 5 miles a day. I even had to go to another weight doctor for appetite suppressant I was so hungry with these in place. I want my money back. They are uncomfortable and to be remove over a six month period. Thin air balloons are place one at a time over 3 months I have 2 . It's not the truth all lies

Sono Bello terrible results waste of money, time and mental/physical pain

3mths post op I look even worse than I was before the procedure. Keep in mind I’m not an overly obese person and was assured I would be very happy with my results (or in fact see any results) at all....I even mentioned it to the nurses and the doctor how concerned I was about not seeing the results, especially after spending so much money I did not have to waste to begin with...they assured me over and over again how happy I would be...post op I continue to complain about my results and I continue to get the same response that I am still swollen and need to wait another 3mths before I can speak to a doctor...I had a tummy tuck over 15yrs ago and I recovered quicker and faster with better results then this procedure....I know my body and I know I am not swollen nor will this look any better in 3mths, very disappointed and very heartbroken for the lack of compassion. Newly divorced, mother of two, wanted to do something to feel better about myself....big mistake and a big waste of money. Not to mention the damage it’s done to my mental well being; I’m very depressed I look deformed, uneven, bigger in places and no smaller in others. I am ashamed that I wasted that money on making myself look uglier when I could have used it for my boys and college graduation present instead.

Sono Bello Body Contour Center

Brief Statement:
I went to Sono Bello Body Contour Center for a liposuction procedure. I also felt pressured by the Sono Bello staff member to have the procedure. Following the liposuction procedure, I noticed that the area continued to swell and became even more painful, very hot and tender to the touch. My gastroenterologist later called to inform me of the results from the CT scan concerning my pancreas. He informed me that my pancreas was fine, but I was infected with a bacterial infection called cellulitis.
I asked the gastroenterologist what could have caused this infection. He informed me that it can come from open wounds and sores. I told him about the recent liposuction procedure I had undergone at Sono Bello Body Contour Center and asked him if this could have possibly caused the cellulitis infection. He distinctly replied, YES. I have more to tell, but this is a brief description. Please contact me as soon as possible. Thank you.

No results

I paid in full approximately 7500 cash with the hope that what they told me, I would see results. The only result was that I gained the weight back. They told me I had to wait 6 months for results and I didn't get the results 7500 should have bought. And feel as though the procedure or doctor was misleading in this matter to the point where the told me I need to pay more

Mid facelift

I came in for a consultation for a face mid lift which consist of neck, chin face, I was seen by a sales person rather than a plastic surgeon. and I feel like I was conned into booking my surgery. After reading bad reviews on the physician that was assigned to me I wanted to cancel and was told that I would lose my refund. So, I requested another physician but they could not schedule me with him so, I had no other choice but to go with the physician that was initially booked with, I had the procedure don in June 2017, it is now 9 months later and I have keloids scars, and the same double chin and jowls when I came. Every time I complained they had me come in and all the Dr. would say is I have beautiful skin, which he did not answer any questions when I addressed my concerns to the nurse. I feel I was taken advantage of and chopped up!

TriSculpting

Paid 3,000$ for a lopsided back. Paid an additional 75$ for a garment I didn't know I needed until after the surgery which only covered the top half of my back that was done, not the bottom. I wish I didn't pay cash because I probably would have gotten follow up treatment or even a phone call by month 6 I couldn't even get in touch with anyone and no one was calling back to try and schedule a check up. My back could have came out much better, now a year later I have lumps on my right side and issues and pain I didn't have prior but I could never get in touch with the doctor to even communicate this. During the surgery the pain level was tremendously unbearable at first since I was awake he said he would need to get under my skin to finish numbing me and to shake my foot if the pain was too much, the pain never stopped, you feel everything.

Bad experiences

Sonobello is BS! I paid >$6000 for my abs and sides. my waist measure 39inches pre-op and 6months post op my waist is 37. I'd complained at my 3months follow up but was assured of loosing more by month 6. When i requested to speak to the surgeon because nothing changed, i got the run around until the 7 months. this dr. brush me off and said to diet and exercise and arrogantly left the room, no respect for my money. All those commercials on tv, the tears etc are disgusting. I think suing is the right thing, because they are just taking peoples money.
PLEASE EVERYONE DON'T GO TO SONOBELLO. In Sacramento, they lack simple manners, I mean all their staff.

Butchers/liars

If you want to wast your money and time....go to Sono Bello!
They have doctors that don’t know what they are doing. My eyes were redone three times and still aren’t right. My ears from my so called face lift are scared and messed up. I have joules and my neck under my chin is hanging. This was only done 2016!!!! I also had liposuction on my stomach and back and there’s still fat there! NOT WHAT I WAS PROMISED!!!! I’ve gone for a consultation with another doctor and was told I need a tummy tuck!! Also explained how I needed my eyes and face fixed. Those sales people at Sono Bello have no medical training at all!!! They have no business being there! They no nothing about what they are selling! Also Sono Bello has been sued several times!!!! At least one resulting in death!!!

NO results!!

Had surgery on my abdomen and was under the impression that my stomach would be flat and tightened. (the nurse even gave me a card, congratulating me on my procedure and soon to be new flat stomach)

Furthest thing from the truth, even 6 months later I still look the same, I have had NO RESULTS... My stomach has no results and I'm looking to sue to remove the debt I've occurred from Sono Bello.

I believe their procedures are scamming people out of their money and increasing debt!!!

If anyone knows a good lawyer, please email me at [email protected]

Sonobello

Had smart lipo with little results, instead I have burt skin and a lumpy stomach. Had to wait 6 months before they would even consider letting me see another doctor or doing something different. My case has to go before a “board” for review. I was under the impression all the fat would be removed and I would have a flat stomach as advertised instead 6 months later still have a stomach along with a huge bill. This is a scam. Don’t do it!

consumer complaint

I paid Sono Bello in advance on Thursday afternoon.
That night I learned about the many terrible outcomes, including a death.

On Friday morning I called to cancel the procedure.
They are going to keep my money even though no service has been provided at all
