“Came in for a consult for my wife and it was such a great experience! The staff was very helpful and answered all our questions. Belle medical is awesome!”
“This procedure was not worth it for me. I want to start by saying that Kristy was wonderful, and I have no complaints about her personally. However, the overall process and results were not what was advertised or what I expected. I met with Karen the day of the procedure, and we didn’t really discuss my desired results or goals in detail. I trusted the process and moved forward. The procedure itself was extremely painful. I felt almost everything. I was just being given oxycodone, tramadol, and Xanax to keep me “calm.” I had liposuction with a fat transfer to my buttocks. Unfortunately, the results were disappointing. My stomach looked uneven, and my buttocks were uneven and flat in certain areas. It added volume, but it did not improve the overall shape the way I expected. I was also given compression garments that never fit properly. I ended up purchasing higher-quality, better-fitting garments on my own. The office offered me a revision procedure, but I still had to pay for it myself. I agreed because I didn’t want to continue living with uneven results. The second procedure was even more painful than the first. The results after the revision were only slightly better. I was told that the procedure adds volume but does not improve shape, and that my outcome was due to my body type. I was also told the fat removal results would be permanent, but that has not been my experience. It has now been over six months since my first procedure, and my stomach has returned to nearly the same size and volume, despite maintaining my weight. Overall, I would not recommend this procedure. For me, it was a painful, expensive, and frustrating experience that did not deliver the results I was expecting.”
“Before scheduling this procedure, I made a genuine effort to approach the decision fully informed. I attempted on multiple occasions to connect with past clients who had experienced circumstances similar to mine, but was told on numerous accounts that no one would speak with me. This was my first sign that I was headed for disaster. At several points throughout the process, I was reassured of the procedure’s effectiveness and told there was no cause for concern. While I accept responsibility for not conducting deeper independent research, I doubt it would have altered my decision. The staff consistently presented success stories and demonstrated a high level of confidence that effectively eased any hesitation. In hindsight, the warning signs are unmistakable. Every form and waiver I signed clearly reflected a company fully aware that the service they provide carries significant unpredictability and inconsistent outcomes. And if this is not the case, then they are either grossly incompetent or simply scanning clients under the expectation that known multiple surgical procedures will only require one visit After the first procedure in July 2024, it was immediately apparent that the promised results had not been achieved. I immediately raised these concerns and was instructed to wait through the prescribed recovery period before any evaluation could be made. At the follow-up appointment, after presenting the failed surgical sites, I was met with a coordinated dismissal of my concerns. I was told that my assessment of my own body was incorrect and that the procedure had, in fact, delivered the agreed-upon results. I left that appointment with the clear understanding that my perspective was irrelevant and that the follow up post surgery discussion served primarily to protect the company from liability, not to address actual concerns. Despite my better judgment, I agreed to undergo a second procedure in February of 2025. I was desperate to correct the protruding areas and was assured it would be a minor corrective treatment to address what remained from the first. Those assurances created a false sense of security. Instead, the outcome was devastating. I am now left with visible deformities—protruding, uneven lumps—that have significantly impacted my physical appearance and emotional well-being. Restoring what has been damaged will require extensive effort, if it is possible at all. It is deeply disheartening that there appears to be no meaningful avenue for accountability. Negative reviews are met with automated responses encouraging clients to reach out for resolution, which in practice seems to lead to the same recommendation I received: to undergo yet another procedure. I deeply regret ever walking through those doors. I regret not heeding the reviews and recognizing the warning signs sooner. Most of all, I regret that there was no one with my experience to warn me beforehand. My sincere hope is that sharing this review will prevent someone else from enduring the same ordeal.”
