RealSelfReviews of realself.com

Recommendations and content based on user's location would make for a better User Experience! I have been browsing RealSelf quite a bit since the pandemic as I have a lot of time on my hands. I would have rated the site a bit higher but find that most of the emails and recommendations that I receive are for US based doctors. As I live in London, this is not helpful and I'd like for content to be relevant to me based on the doctors and procedures that I have geographical access to.

Realself has been indispensable to me planning my liposuction. The huge repository of before and after photos give a more accurate portrayal of the range of real results (i.e. nothing photoshopped) for each procedure. I have spent a lot of time browsing the site and I'm glad it is so informative. The reviews by fellow patients are very helpful and make the recovery process more relatable, as is the Q&A feature with actual doctors.

Real self don't remove posts even when they don't meet their code of conduct. Evidence has been given to realself that a review has many points of false information, including false before and after pictures. The patient has then asked for £5000 to remove the false review but realself have stated they will not look at the evidence and will not remove the review.

Fake biased reviews. I wrote a review of a Dr. Who created major damage to my face. After the review had been up for three weeks the dr contacted them (she advertises there and paid big bucks) and they took my review down and blocked my account and my roommates account which was associated with the same IP address I assume. They never replied to my inquiry. They just ghosted me. I will have to spend 56k to fix the damage yet Realself removed my review which did not violate any standards ( and that is why it was published but the drs pay not the users). So do not trust this site. The drs on Realself are not good and many of the reviews are fake and/or biased. I found the dr who botched me through Realself , Stellar 5 star reviews. After being botched I looked her up on yelp and noticed she has a two star average. Through yelp I got in touch with other people who got botched. Do not trust Realself. In response to Realself: you say that you eliminated my review bc I had two accounts. that is not really how things went. You blocked the account with the review the day after the physician contacted me. How convenient. Also how convenient that you removed only the review and you refuse to remove all my other content despite multiple attempts and communication to have you remove my content! Why does my review (which had been up for a month and was not posted anywhere else) get removed a day after I spoke with the physician in question, but I have to fight you to remove everything else? So hypocritical and convenient. Btw, the physician in question advertises heavily or Realself and has lots of questionable vague reviews from users who only wrote one review of this dr. But you removed my reviews with before and after pictures that show the results. It wasn’t even a vague review : it was detailed. But guess what: if the review had remained posted (like all the other stuff i wrote and that you refuse to remove ) the dr who advertises heavily on Realself, would have stopped paying big bucks to gain exposure on your site.

I value a site that real people can put their experiences - especially when it is so personal. The coordinator at my surgeon's office gave me the website. It's very reassuring to get first hand information from someone that has experienced surgery - this site is a treasure!

Love true self

Best place to get answers for any surgery need from different dr any the same time . Makes it so much easier to make decisions

When you’re feeling lost and need support from other people facing the same situations Real Self not only has supportive members but licensed and Board certified doctors and specialists to assist you through any confusion. This is my 3rd or 4th time writing a review and I’ve been able to assist others just as well as others have been able to assist me. I appreciate all my Real Self sisters...and brothers 🤗
