I have been thinking about an abdominoplasty for some time, and thought that with COVID and working from home, this might be the best time to move forward with the procedure if I was ever going to get it done. I contacted the Virginia Center for Plastic Surgery (I just did a Google search) and had a virtual consultation.
VCPS staff:
Olga, Dr. Desman's patient care coordinator, is friendly, helpful and addresses any anxiety you might have about your procedure.
Gina, his office administrator, is super nice and friendly. I didn't meet Dr. Desman in-person until my pre-op appointment

Most unethical and abusive staff and doctor. Lies, deceit and just plain fraudulent claims of results after getting you to sign them off for any complaint. The low-life thuggery starts with olga and goes down the sewer as bulying and payment fraud gets under way. Another issue ma y have been that they pick the most likely victim for their malpractice so that nothing really gets reported-- and that was me. All the glorious reviews here are not quite real and neither are the physicians ethics -- they deserve to be stripped of from practicing any kind of medicine or just move to barbados

Please don't waste your money to come here for dermal filler or Botox. I spend over $1300 . The results were ZERO. the effect from "his" Botox and filler were completely gone after one week. I went back and he said there is nothing he can do and I need to use Retinol for those fine lines. Please don't bother to come here and do your research.

I did my own lip injections ( I know, horrible decision.. dont judge lol) and I was freaking out. I thought I was going to look like this forever. I had a lot of pain and looked like I had silicone instead of filling. Absolutely hideous. I called the usual place I go to .. they were charging me hundreds of dollars to fix the problem claiming they didnt have the right product to dissolve it and had to order it first. Others had appointments available in a month. Others charged consultation fees before booking an actual appointment. They made it seem like this was a complicated and impossible
