I regret to share my deeply disappointing experiences with Dr. Karam over multiple procedures spanning several years. My journey began in 2020 with a fat transfer to address facial hollowing. Despite initial promises, the results quickly faded, leaving me with no noticeable improvement. I was told from staff and Dr. Karam that results would improve over time. Two years later, I saw no positive changes at all. Upon asking for another fat transfer, I was declined as he said he does not do revisions (although it says he does in the contract). My results not only did not get any better, they got worse.

Because I was so unhappy with the results, I considered a vertical restore to fix the issues with the lower half of my face, and upper and lower bleph to help with my eyes. It was not until I asked about doing a different procedure that I was able to talk to Dr. Karam again. Makes sense...if I'm paying more money, he will meet with me. He ended up telling me that he was no longer doing fat transfer without a vertical restore because the results weren't good. If the results were not good, then he should have offered to do a fat transfer again. He did not.

In 2022, I underwent a vertical restore procedure and blepharoplasty. Unfortunately, these interventions also failed to meet expectations. My eyes now appear worse than before, with increased droopiness and wrinkles. A subsequent consultation with an eyelid specialist revealed that Dr. Karam's work was subpar, irreparable, and that he is a surgeon who consistently does revisions for Dr. Karam's sloppy work.

Throughout this process, I've faced significant challenges in obtaining adequate follow-up care. Post-operative appointments were with nurses, not Dr. Karam himself. When I asked to meet with Dr. Karam, the response I always got was that he is "in surgery" and cannot meet. He is so busy doing so many surgeries that he does not have the time for any post-op care at all which is completely NEGLIGENT. My attempts to schedule reviews via phone and email with the doctor have been repeatedly unsuccessful, leaving me feeling dismissed and unheard.

After paying for your procedure, you are nothing but a number and you will be treated as such. It's like the DMV of plastic surgery.I will never be doing a procedure with Dr. Karam ever again. I caution potential patients to look beyond his exciting social media presence and large following, and carefully research patient outcomes. His popularity on social media does not make him the best doctor. His prices reflect his popularity, not his work. In my experience, the high costs associated with Dr. Karam's procedures did not translate to any results or attentive aftercare.

After four years and multiple surgeries, I deeply regret my decision to pursue treatment with this practice.To those considering cosmetic procedures, I strongly advise thorough research and skepticism of overwhelmingly positive reviews. My hope in sharing this experience is to prevent others from enduring extreme disappointment, no results, and financial loss.
