He preformed surgeries, yes multiple all at the same time, and left me with a disproportionate face. I heard him say he screwed up, while I was sedated, could not move, but could hear it all. He did way too much sawing, and destruction to my face. He even stated I would definitely need work later on in life. So here I am, at the point where I am feeling horrible about myself, unable to look in the mirror. I should have never taken his advice, nor had anything done. I hope no one else has had to go thru the trauma I am experiencing now.

I too have been extremely impressed with the work I have seen of Dr. Henry Kawamoto. He helped a friend of mine a great deal after she dealt with a problematic aftermath of previous surgery. It is a loss to the medical community that this surgeon retired. Currently I'm in search for a reconstructive surgeon, and can not think of any surgeon who I'd trust than Dr. H. Kawamoto. Would anyone know of a reconstructive surgeon Dr. Kawamoto recommended for soft tissue intervention - it involves the lips. Thank you in advance.
