This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Dr. Sydney Coleman, founder of Lipostructure has more than 50 complaints against him that have been filed with the DOH in NYC. This doctor has no business calling himself the founder of anything much less fat transfer. His fat grafts do not last at all and he harvests fat from areas without the patients' consent and leaves them with new problem areas. He took an oath to protect the patient, but he destroys their lives. He charges exuberant prices and you end up disfigured. Please do not go to him. You will be making the biggest mistake of your life. I made the mistake and have to live with the consequences daily. He has no conscience nor regard for his actions.

Buyer Beware!

Because he makes up a story that you want to believe. Then he takes all your money, then he doesn't do what you want, then you are screwed. He may even flatter patients into thinking that their result is an improvement when it really isn't. In my case there was no improvement but my surgeon poured on the flattery to the point that I became utterly confused as to what the truth was. It took me some time to come to accept the awful truth that I had given all my money away and had even allowed him to damage skin. No lawyer will help you either. I called numerous lawyers ON THE PHONE and they ALL refused to even consider my case because it involved elective surgery.

Use a magic marker to draw a picture of your face on a partially inflated balloon. then blow it up. this is what you may look like after fat transfer!
Or pick up the latest copy of national geographic that gives a description of the neanderthal face with the protruding brow and cheek. the fact that these doctors have purposefully done this is an obvious act of mutilation that is intended to humiliate the patient.

Why do you think dr coleman has so many more "mistakes" than other doctors?

Do you think its something about his technique?
I read that the sort of cannula (sp) he uses is more tramatic than other types.

What do you think?

I am a Coleman dissatisfied patient too.
My abdomen looks like a mess from his "fat grafting" to look like muscle. And he talked me into it just before I went under for the procedure.
My face isn't my face. I always get the gasp when someone sees me that has not seen me since before the surgery.

Not happy with my results. Yet I think he is the only person who can try and reverse things.

How can he reverse it? He is a fraud in the first place. Fat grafting doesn't even work. He does it anyway because it is a cheap, easy way to add volume.
You mistakenly believe that a small percentage of the injected fat lives. If this were true he would add it in gradual amounts. Instead he adds a large amount. This is the only way he can add volume because this is the only way that the necrotic tissue can remain without being absorbed first. Who the hell wants necrotic tissue under their skin? I saw all his before/ afters on his website and I thought his patients looked ghastly in the after pictures!

I asked what I feel are some very simple question of Dr. Coleman and his extremely authoritative, almost hostile, secretary, and it was no surprise that they refused to answer any of them. Here is a copy of the e-mails for all of you to see:
Jenny;

I have spoken to you over the phone several times trying to answer your questions to your satisfaction. Dr. Coleman and Dr. Saboerio suggest that you make an appointment for a consultation if you wish to have these questions answered in depth. It is not something easily answered over the phone and as I told you there is not an exact measured percentage of stem cells that are injected. Most of your questions are answered on our website.

Please contact me if you would like to schedule a consultation with one of the doctors.

Subject: my questions

Renee,

I am very interested in getting a tiny bit of fat in my upper eye. Here are my questions:

1. How can Dr. Coleman even measure how much and how long the fat will last with weight fluctuations. I notice that people's faces change dramatically w/ age and weight.

2. How do the stem cells "become muscle and bone"? What % are stem cells of fat that is injected?

3. Are there any cases where the fat doesn't last?

4. can leg fat cells grow inside the face at a rate that would cause them to create disproportion or loss of defining facial features? If I lose weight will the fat that is added go away?

5. How many of the injected cells live and does as little as a single cell die?

6. I only wish to replace lost fat. How can Dr. Coleman make certain that he only replaces lost fat and in the same place as the old fat?

Thank you.

Jenny

I would also like to add that Coleman's secretary dismissed all of your complaints as simply a few mentally-ill patients with body-dismorphia.
I WOULD JUST LIKE TO QUOTE COLEMAN'S SECRETARY, RENEE : "UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH IN THIS COUNTRY"
She also said that these patients have "nothing better to do". THANK GOD THAT THEY DON'T or Coleman would keep on fooling people! It is amazing, I look at so many of his 'good' fat grafts and there is no differnce at all, or a difference that could be due to weight gain and lighting, or is disputable as to whether it is even a positive change. If coleman likes plumping things why doesn't he just open up a hot dog stand? Believe me, younger faces are not plumper LIKE THAT and, even if they were, it certainly isn't worth having lumps and deformed skin (SOMETHING THE PICTURES DON'T SHOW BUT WE KNOW ALL TOO WELL).

One last thing, RENEE OUTRIGHT LIED TO ME ON THE PHONE! She said that every single cell of the fat that Coleman injects lives, in every single one of his 7000 patients. How dare you lie, Renee! She also said in a previous converstaion that not one of Coleman's patients has ever had a lump! Now tell me, why would Renee feel the need to lie like this? Could it be that everything that Coleman says is a lie? Also, I notice that much of their lies are spoken rather than put in writting.

I am a former patient of dr coleman...in 2001 I got divorced and thought, let me improve alittle bit of "me"...well i consulted with a dr in michigan ..He suggested a few procedures...Me being so upset at my recent divorce, i went ahead with it..I was 31 at the time, well this docter in michigan, Literally made me look 50!, i went back to him to see what i can do, and he said well maybe add alittle fat in your cheeks..I didnt go back..Nor did i sue him or go online talking about it..It was my decision and just looked for ways to fix what has happened. For one year i consulted with hundreds of docters in michigan, that said Nope cant do anything sorry..i didnt really leave my house for a year..The last docter i went to in michigan..said NO ONE COULD HELP YOU BUT A DOCTER IN NY .."DR SYDNEY REESE COLEMAN". I thought No way to far, and so much time going there etc. But i called, got pamplets and read all about his procedures. Than with help from my family, i went to see him..Him and his whole staff were so nice, helpful, and step by step told me exactly what he would do, i felt very pleased. I schduled for surgery and sure enough my first surgery with him was in dec of 2001. I was swollen afterward, but 3 to 4 weeks later, i looked in the mirror and thought OMG i am back and even better!..I did all my surgeries in steps only cause i couldnt afford it, but just my first surgery alone was the biggest positive change:)...I went back to see Dr coleman, i set up another surgery 3 years later ...this time he did alot more, my finances improved and i went for it:)..he did under my eyes, cheeks, lips, took a tiny bit out of the right cheek...I was swollen for a good 2 months but after again "WOW"...
I have had 3 procedures with this docter and i am having another one in December of this year!...EVERY BIT OF FAT HAS STAYED SINCE 2001..how i can tell..well the previous docter put a indent in my cheek ...IT HAS NEVER COME BACK!..DR COLMAN IS A GREAT MAN, A PERSON WHO LECTURES ALL AROUND THE WORLD..hE HAS HELPED MANY CHILDREN WITH DEFORMITIES!...and now those children can grow up and have normal lives, and here you come a 'few" of you complaining etc, WHY NOT GO BACK TO HIM AND HAVE HIM CORRECT IF ITS SO HORRIBLE!..you have wasted SO MANY DAYS AND MONTHS AND YEARS JUST SITTING ONLINE AND TYPING AWAY, BUT LIFE IS SHORT!..i was only 31 when i had a docter do this to me! I COULD OF TRIED TO SUE HIM AND TAKE YEARS OF TO DO ALL THESE THINGS, BUT I CHOSE TO TAKE ACTION TO FIX THINGS!..i dont believe dr coleman did this to you!..I HAD MANY PROCEDURES WITH COLEMAN AND NOT ONE TIME WAS I UNHAPPY!.
listen people...there are billions of people that go thru the mcdonalds drive thru..how many compliants there?
dr coleman has done 7000 cases or more, every single docter, every single profession has a few unhappy people!...but its THE sick people who go online and just dont take care of what is wrong!..i work in a profession that also comes with great service !...I HAVE NO FURTHER COMMENTS!

ANOTHER COMMENT ..I HAVE NOT MET RENEE YET! BUT SHE IS NOT LYING!...EVERY SINGLE CELL LIVES ...[protected] STILL LIVING!..WHEN I GAIN WIEGHT MY FACE GETS CHUBBIER, , WHEN I LOSE IT GETS SMALLER, IT LIVES LIKE NORMAL FAT! DR COLEMAN IS LITERALLY THE BEST DOCTER IN THE WORLD AND U WILL NEVER FIND ANYONE DOCTER THAT WILL TESTIFY AGAINST HIM, BECAUSE THEY ALSO HAVE LAW SUITS AND CRAZY PATIENTS LIKE YOURSELVES!..AND THESE DOCTERS WISH THEY COULD DO WHAT COLEMAN DOES, THEY ALL GO TO HIS LECTURES!

You are an idiot. The fact that you have spent so much time having surgery at a young age proves this. Haven't you seen all the celebrities that have been deformed by these so-called doctors? If Coleman is so great why doesn't he have pictures of good faces. If I didn't know any better, I might think that he took some cadavers and filled them w/ god know what and photographed them. He is a no-talent ### and has no business stuffing faces w/ fat to arrive at a barely noticeable change.

the docter in michigan really messed up my face, he did this laser on my skin and melted away most of the fat that lives in my face, it was terrible!...my cheeks were sunken in, forehead, under eyes. I keep going back to dr coleman because i coudlnt afford doing my whole face at once so i did it in sections...He doesnt put anything in your face but your "own" fat. .Like i said there are about 7000 of his patients and only 1% not happy, its like with anything in life...every single docter has law suits, doesnt matter if your a plastic surgeon, a dentist, the president of the united states lol...there are COMPLIANTS!.TOP movie stars have had "bad plastic surgery" u dont see them online complaining, and that is worse ruining there career for awhile, they dont even disclose the dr that did that work, i am sure its a "top surgeon from LA"..hollywood..come on guys what is your deal?...i am not wanting to argue but to say, I AM A VERY HAPPY PATIENT OF DR SYDNEEY REESE COLEMAN AND HAPPY TO HAVE THE CHANCE TO HAVE MET THIS DOCTER, LET ALONE HAVE HIM TOUCH MY FACE, HE HAS HELPED ME REGAIN MY SELF ESTEEM AND NEVER ONCE DID I EVER FEEL VIOLATED OR UPSET ...THE FAT HE USES IS FAT, AND LIVES VERY MUCH SO...OH TRUST ME I WOULD BE THE FIRST ONE TO TESTIFY ON HIS BEHALF, I HAVE PICS ALL THE WAY FROM 2001:)..SHOWING WHAT A AWESOME DOCTER THIS IS!...

May I see your pictures? Also, Renee, you keep saying that patients that are unhappy should not speak out and should accept things as they are? I think that if they didn't then Doctors would go wild. What am I saying, they have gone wild. Just look at that cat woman, Joan Rivers, Angelina Jolie, Cher, Michael Jackson... They all have that strange plump, mortuary, transvestite, waxy look. It is mutilation to do this to people and it is time that people speak out against this. Many of the victims are too stupid to stand up for themselves. That is why they allowed themselves to be mutilated in the first place.

And since I have "nothing better to do", Renee and Dr. Coleman, I must say that I think that it shows just what evil people you are to compare people's lives to McDonalds drive-thru. I think the real truth behind your statement is that you are a real predator and view people as food to eat.
And please do not say that the frequent celebrity mutilations are simple mistakes at the drive thru. They happen far too consistently and it clearly took a lot of careful planning and great attention to detail to come to such elaborate distortions. And sorry for adding Angelina in there, I guess I was just kidding.
And another question for you, if Coleman has had 7000 great outcomes, why does he have just a few pathetic pictures that look like cadavers to me?

and why is it, Renee, that when we complain about what you do to us you say it is body dismorphic disorder? why isn't it body dismorphic disorder when we come in to have you work on us in the first place? I still remember when I was just 18 some creepy, geeky P.S. came up w/ a whole list of alterations to make on my face. Looking back, I now see that there was not a thing that needed changing and I looked perfect, as most 18 yr olds do. So why is it that he would take advantage of me like that? Many of these people are just plain out there to take advantage of people. If you have body dismorphic disorder they must really start to drool over you. And did you ever notice how they will take the most ugly distorted photo of you so you look as ugly as can be.

IT IS CLEAR YOU'RE DONE COLEMAN.

YOU HAVE MUTILATED DOZENS ON PURPOSE, NOT ACCIDENTALLY.

YOU ARE A SAD MAN, AND YES YOU USED TO BE A FORMER BALLET DANCER AS ONE POSTER ASKED, AND THERE'S NO

DOUBT YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE AN ADONIS. YOU'RE AN

UGLY RED-HEADED LUMPED-FACED PSYCHOPATH, NO DIFFERENT THAN GAYCE, WHO LURED HIS VICTIMS WITH A CLOWN OUTFIT.

YOU LURED THEM WITH YOUR CLOWN ACT.

THE FACT IS SO BLARINGLY OBVIOUS THAT YOU ARE NOT FIT FOR SOCIETY, MUCH LESS THAN A PLASTIC SURGEON.

YOU SHOULD BE BANNED FROM ALL THE MEDICAL ASSOCIATIONS THAT WOULD HAVE SOMEONE LIKE YOU REPRESENTING THEIR LACK OF INTEGRITY.

YOU DISGRACE MEDICINE. YOU DISGRACE AMERICA.

I KNOW YOU'RE ANGRY AT THE WORLD AND WANT TO TAKE IT OUT ON YOUR PATIENTS.

BUT YOU CAN'T, BECAUSE YOUR NOW YOUR ARROGANCE HAS CAUGHT UP TO YOU AND YOU ARE DROWING IN MALPRACTICE LAWSUITS.

I TRULY BELIEVE THAT WILL BE NOTHING OF WHAT YOU DESERVE AND WILL REAP FOR ALL THE PAIN, SUFFERING, CRUELTY AND NEGLIGENCE YOU PERPETRATED ON YOUR
TRUSTING VICTIMS.

YOU ARE SICK. PLEASE GET HELP.

THE FACT THAT YOU THINK HAVING DIFFERENT PEOPLE ON HERE STILL, AFTER 29 PAGES, TO SALVAGE YOUR RUINED REPUTATION IS A SAD TESTAMENT TO HOW MENTALLY ILL YOU REALLY ARE.

PLEASE GET PSYCHIATRIC HELP. YOU ARE A SOCIOPATH, A DANGER TO SOCIETY AND YOURSELF. ARE YOU EVEN TREATABLE AT THIS POINT? I URGE YOU TO ENTER A REHABILITATION FACILITY THAT DEALS WITH EXTREME NARCISSISTIC/SADISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDERS SO THAT YOU MAY NO LONGER BE A HARM TO SOCIETY AND TO YOURSELF.

PLEASE GIVE UP YOUR MEDICAL LICENSE AND STOP DESTROYING PEOPLE. PLEASE CONSIDER TAKING A VERY LONG VACATION TO HEAL YOURSELF. YOU ARE SICK.

YOU NEED SERIOUS PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION AND MEDICATION IF YOU AREN'T ON THEM ALREADY. YOU NEED TO AWAKEN SPIRITUALLY AND REALIZE THAT EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T FEEL THE PAIN, EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY NOT CARE, EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY EVEN DELIGHT IN ANOTHER'S SUFFERING, YOU ARE HARMING YOURSELF BY SUCH DANGEROUS BEHAVIORS THAT COULD LEAD TO MORE SEVERE MENTAL ILLNESS AND REPERCUSSIONS.

MANY OF YOUR VICTIMS HAD THOUGHTS OF WANTING TO HARM YOU. THIS IS A NORMAL RAGE REACTION WHEN SOMEONE HAS BEEN VIOLATED, MUTILATED AGAINST THEIR WISHES. SOMEONE SOMEDAY JUST MAY CARRY OUT THESE THOUGHTS, SO PLEASE, FOR EVERYONE'S SAKE, JUST GET MENTAL HELP AND RETIRE.

STOP HURTING PEOPLE...JUST...STOP.

Dr. Coleman, Why would you litter this complaints board w/ your fake testimonials? You are a no-good liar! You have Renee lie for you to attract your victims. Stop! NEVER ONE LUMP! NEVER ONE CELL DIES! EVEN THE MAYO CLINIC ADMITS THAT THE SURVIVAL OF GRAFTS VARIES GREATLY FOR EACH PERSON AND MANY PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD MENTION LUMPS AND HOPE AND PRAY THAT YOUR FAT WILL NOT LAST. YOU USE CLEVER MARKETING TO LURE YOUR VICTIMS, MAINLY ELDERLY PEOPLE, I WOULD JUST BET. YOU ARE A PREDATOR AND YOU BELONG IN JAIL! YOU ARE A ONE-MAN BAND CLOWN SHOW. WHY YOU FIND THE NEANDRTHAL TRAITS SO IDEAL SHOWS THAT YOU HAVE THE MIND OF A MONSTER. NEANDERTHAL MUST HAVE EVOLVED INTO A GROUP OF HUMANS AND YOU MUST HAVE COME FROM THIS GROUP.

Dr. Coleman,
You have commited the perfect crime. You swell your patients with there own fat and the swelling lasts for 2 years. By the time your patients can fully grasp what has been done to them the 2 year statute of limitations has passed and there is no way to sue. Not to mention, no lawyer will even represent patients who have had elective surgery. This has provided you with the perfect gateway to make easy money and not get caught. It sounds so NATURAL to the unsuspecting patient to add a little of their own fat. But the end result is anything but natural. Even your best example of that woman that you feature on your web-site is a joke. She goes from having natural, delicate, wispy feminine features to having over-grown, thick features that are very charecteristic of middle-age.

I just spoke with a reputable dermatologist and he said that it is well documented that fat from fat injections will go entirely away in 50-60% of all patients. How is it that Sydney Coleman gets away with telling people that all his fat survives? and who would want it to stay anyway after seeing that hideous face in the mirror?
now I know he just says things to lure people!

I would just like to warn others to not have mesotherapy or any type of injections to get rid of the swelling or fat caused by fat grafts. Studies show that MESOTHERAPY IS NOT TESTED OR PROVEN TO BE SAFE AND MESOTHERAPY WORKS BY KILLING LIVING TISSUE. To me it makes no sense to think that one could even control an injected substance that is being injected in any place in the human body. I also conclude the same about fat injections.

I threw out the items they had sent . they certainly would now be safe so everyone be warned they will just keep charging unless you cancel the card

The producers did not do any research on Coleman, but I did send them a letter, and made then aware of this site, so that they can read our testimonials. Way to go Sydney.

My father gave up drinking, smoking, lost weight, and he still died of a heart attack at 57. A co-worker of my husband had lost his father at a young age. He jogged every day and died while jogging and he was only about 43.

Edit post I am so incredibly blown away, that this show, has not taken the time to research Dr. Sydney Coleman, the plastic surgeon they have “Godified, ” regarding Lipostructure. If anyone were to Google…“Complaints Board, Dr, Sydney Coleman” you will find a wealth of information on the abuses and experimentation on his patients while sedated. I am a victim, amongst many. I went in for tweaking fine lines around the outter corners of my eyes, and to have my lips filled in some. I ended up looking like the Geico insurance caveman, and was mutilated on numerous areas20of my body. Including my labia. The man is a psychopath.

Edit post I do understand everyone’s concern over heart issues, but did you see my post on Dr. Sydney Coleman. Google the “Complaints Board” and read the horrifying stories of men and women mutilated by him. Do you really trust a source that does little research for you. The man had all of the credentials, yet over 50 comlpaints. Even CBS or NBC, was about to do a story on his being a psychopath, but it got canned after interviewing and filming. A detective was part of the clip to be shown. Talk about buying people off, or powerful influence?

Edit post Google…Dr. Sydney Coleman…Complaints Board…“Buyer Beware.”
Dr. Sydney Coleman is mentioned in the Nov. 28th segment for this show, about heart issues20and “Lipostructure.” If you take a quick peek, at this complaint site…you will be floored that he is even part of this show here. Speaking of show…“there is not any show of responsibility, ” regarding the genuine concern for any of us here….by it’s producers. People are tired of the crap, and if this show would truly like to be a success, they need to do the right thing and be honest and meticulous, when promoting health. Not send people to those intnetionally harming another for perverted pleasures and money. Dr. Sydney Coleman is hateful and a menace to society. His own cirlce is aware of him, and tired of cleaning up his messes, those that can be.

There are laws suits going on right now, but people just want thier lives back and agree to settling. I waited to long, because I was so overwhelmed. Look at the cat lady….that is what he did to us, and we did not ask to be mutilated. I had just had a facelift a year prior, and looked great, wanted minor tweaking for fine lines. I looked 35 to 40 at the time, and now look 65 because I was stretched out hugely for so long. The producers of this show, could have discovered this info. and verified our stories. You have a legitimate complaint, because how can you possibly trust any advice given here? or your safety. I was alerted to this by another victim of Dr. Sydney Coleman, but she told me here comments here keep getting deleted.

The show included heart issues and "Lipostructure" with Coleman. The comments are mixed in together. Just wanted to let all, see what is up with Coleman. Someone alerted me, so passing along.

I would also like to add in my experience on some of my lumps of fat (not all)14 months post op after excscion I developed
worse scar tissue and projection of affected areas? So I think you really have to give it time to see results of excision.
Not all of my lumps did develop this scar tissue and some were succesfully removed.
I want to know how to now treat the lumps of what I assume are scar tissue?...5fu or steroid?
Has anyone had lumps of fat that were removed regenerate?
It has also been my experience that it takes many surgeries to get the fat out, I still have yet another area
that has soft fat in it..I will have to address this soon too ...by some method.
I HATE that I have to learn by trail and error and to try to find answers...why is it so hard! information should
be offered on all the diffrent senarios with fat graft removal.Can everyone share what they have tried
and what the results were long term .

Need some help. First, I need to know of any doctors who can fix the problem of too much fat. I am another disfigured victim. I haven't seen my family in two years because I can't let them see me this way. I pretty much stay home all the time and don't go many places because my face looks so strange. It is so uneven and full in places. I don't even recognize myself in the mirror. Overfilling is one problem, but the worst part is that it is so uneven. The right cheek is twice as big as the left. I also have lots of bumpy areas. I have holes and dents all over where they took the fat from. I need help. First I need to know the name of an attorney willing to take on these kind of cases. Second, I need a doctor who can repair the damage. I went back many times to get repairs at Dr. Coleman's office. They could not fix it and hurt it more than helped when they tried to dissolve fat. The dissolve is very dangerous on the face. It does not work evenly. I was told by other plastic surgeons that it was a very bad job. They told me only an amateur would mess up your legs like that and take that much fat out at once. When they saw the amount of fat taken out of my legs, they were shocked. They also said they put way to much in. They also said they should have never tried to dissolve fat from you face. The procedure is just not accurate.

Jenny have you been told that your scars are true keloids couldn't they be regular
scarring that "dont" get worse but actually soften?
I know it is true that Keloids can grow and worsen.
I have deep scarring from fat graft removed by excision-I sure hope those
aren't keloids..I always assumed they were just regular deep scarring.
Doctors are now treating scars with fat graft -the stem cells seem to
help soften scars.I hope we learn more about this soon.
