I had Dr. Viera perform a facelift and upper eyelid surgeries on me. Nearly one year after my surgeries, there are noticeable scars on my eyelids and around my ears. He left scars above my eyes and my eyelids are not symmetrical. My right ear was significantly higher than my left ear. Furthermore, my right earlobe curled upwards making it difficult for me to wear earring in that ear. The scars on my face have greatly affected me physically and emotionally. I have visited other cosmetic surgeons for possible scars revision co... read more
Business response:
Ideal healing is entirely dependent on the patient’s skin type and tendency to form heavy scarring. Dr. Viera studies the patient’s skin and healing history prior to surgery. Any previous scars are examined to try to determine how the person heals or the tendency to heavy scarring or keloid formation. If the exam indicates a tendency to prominent scars, incisions are made in areas which will hide well and a fine silicone Embrace covering of the incision is made and continued for several weeks after surgery. Patients who heal... read more
It has now been over two years, TWO YEARS and I still, every single day, have marked swelling around my brows and eyes causing severe distortion. I still have thick, visible scars under my eyes, around my ear, in my hairline and especially where he did a brow lift. Please, please do not fall for his glossy magazine hype. Run away as fast as you can!
Business response:
In spite of our careful study of each patient’s skin and previous healing history, healing is unpredictable and impossible to avoid this unfortunate eventuality. We follow each patient as long as necessary to obtain the best healing possible for them. We use the latest methods of scar therapy. Occasionally a scar may need to be retouched. Our patients are never charged for any future care. We strive to make sure our patients feel confident that we care for them and will not rest until we have obtained the best result we can ... read more
Final result was not acceptable. Eyelids still sag, nose not straight, ugly scar under chin. Asked for reimbursement or help for corrective surgery, but would not respond. Saw six doctors, all said the quality of the work was not good. Do not use this doctor.
Business response:
In our practice, we follow our patients very closely for as long as necessary to obtain the best result possible. It is our principle to point any unforeseen result that is unsatisfactory to our standards and those of our patients immediately. We proceed to correct such at no charge. Surgical results are not always perfect based on individualized healing. We try our best to make them as perfect as possible. We want our patients to be happy and proud of their results.
My lipo ,was satisfactory,I have no complaints,matter of fact I m considering him my second procedure.
It is time for Dr. Viera to RETIRE! His work is poor. He shows a lack of concern and compassion to his patients. I believe that he didn't remember me when I went in for my follow-up which is very disappointing. His staff is friendly and helpful though he does not take responsibility for his short comings. I would NOT recommend Dr. Viera for any surgical procedures.
Business response:
Over the years, I have continually strived to improve my work. I derive immense satisfaction in providing the best results attainable and humbly I mention that I am constantly being congratulated for the quality results I provide. I never the less am always looking for ways to improve my results. This was how a few years ago I developed the Activelift facelift for active people who wish to return to their activities soon. I continue to attend meetings and also present my latest techniques as well as learn of new developments... read more
I have visible scars, drooping lower eyes, and still have marked swelling every day (it's been over a year since my surgery. The scars to my lower lids were so bad that I had to undergo a series of kenalog injections to my lower lids (via Dr. V)....beleive me this isn't something you would volunteer for. I see some "glowing" reviews have been added here. I would NOT recommend this doc.....where there's smoke, there's fire.
Business response:
Healing is a very unpredictable event even in spite of our meticulous study of the person's skin and previous healing history. If in spite of these precautions poor healing or keloid formation were to occur, we proceed to treat such as the situation requires for as long as may be necessary until a satisfactory result is obtained. We never give up in our effort to obtain the best result for our patients and never charge for any future treatments.
I had one of the best if not the greatest experiences and surgical outcomes with Dr. Viera. The results of my face lift, bleph., liposuction of face, abdomen and thighs as well as bilateral ear re-contouring, exceeded my expectations. As a physician myself, I was careful in my choice of plastic surgeons and after learning about his vast education and board certifications and research in head and neck and plastic surgery, I knew he was exceptional. Moreover, I spoke to a host of my colleagues as well as several patients of hi... read more
Dr. Viera has, without hesitation, provided me with exemplary service and accomplished every one of my goals. He has taken the time to explain every aspect of my surgeries, the processes, the recoveries, and the outcomes. His bedside manner is beyond compare - calling me the night of the surgeries and being available for my calls when I wanted an answer.I have had a few different procedures and would not think of calling any other doctor for my future procedures. I have recommended Dr. Viera to at least 5 different friends a... read more
Knowledgible-Fair-Triple Board Certification- For over 12 years, Dr. Viera has excelled in my expectations for multiple procedures. I looked for an experienced surgeon for major surguries as well as an ongoing maintenance program & he has delivered. Being honest about my expectations & Dr. Viera's vast experience, we both understood that doctors are human & have the utmost care in mind for all clients. His staff has always treated me as "family" which in todays health world is rare and oftem uncaring. He is true with realist... read more
