Real Self offers access to Surgeon profiles and websites but more importantly real patient reviews. I was able to contact multiple plastic surgeons to set up consultations through Real Self

I had so many questions and concerns about the surgery which I asked all to Dr. Tok and she answered all of them one by one without any hesitation. She was very kind and patient with me which made me feel cared and understood. I also could reach her any time after the surgery which is also a very helping aspect. Overall the experience was very relaxed. It is now 10 days after the surgery and I feel great!

Realself helps you make an informed decision around surgery by helping patients share stories, understand better how procedures work - step by step - how to choose a surgeon, what to expect, the exact costs, the pros and cons etc. It's invaluable in a field that is quite opaque and where people feel more comfortable sharing things anonymously.

Every time I tried to access the page to look up surgeons, it wouldn’t load. When it finally did load, it took me to another page I didn’t specify. It’s only when using this website. So I took it into my own hands to find surgeons on my own.

Very helpful cosmetic information

Skip the chemical peel
The chemical peel is about as deep as using rentin-a. Mild peeling. No change in fine lines, unevenness, pore size or healthy looking skin. A waste of 500. See a real dermatologist if you want results. I sent a letter about my unhappiness and they did not respond.

Thank you for your kind review. We are thrilled to hear that you find the site helpful and easy to use!
All comments must be positive, or else
They remove constructive criticism which isn't realistic. Some of the "afters" need revisions and they'll never know. Also, RealSelf shouldn't bother posting stories with zero or 1 photo.

We appreciate your feedback, Lizzy. Our goal is to create a safe space for our members to share their stories. For this reason, we ask that comments are supportive. We understand that you may have your own opinions about someone’s appearance, but when a community member is happy with their results, suggesting a revision is not helpful or supportive.
In regards to reviews without photos, we agree that a picture can be worth a thousand words. However, since many community members prefer anonymity when discussing their procedures, we do allow reviews without photos.
If you’d like to view only reviews with photos, click the “Photos and Video” filter option on the main review page, and they’ll be filtered for you. Our photo gallery is also helpful when researching: https://www.realself.com/photos

If you want to find the truth about Plastic Surgery , this is where to go. Plastic surgeons do not report people that have issues so everything always looks Rosie and wonderful, but it is not. I am a testament to that. This is why I finally found people like me suffering with the same issues as me
