After having children, my breasts sagged and extra skin hung from my belly. Repairing my body was a priority. Since I did not want to put anything foreign into my body, I was interested in the fat to breast procedure. Of course, there was only one doctor around my area that performed this typle of procedure.

Thank you for sharing this honest review with us.  

I am so sorry you had this very bad experience.   Are these things you will be able to have fixed when ready?  

March 6, 2013
Yes, I did get it fixed. With a fight, I was able to get all my money back for the nightmare surgery. I had alot of evidence against him.... So about a year later, I was ready for my revision. I was very nervous but I found a great surgeon who did a great job. My tummy looks great. I am so grateful. Thanks for your inquiry.

I feel for you, honey. I, too, had a HORRIBLE experience with another "leader" in the field. A friend here on realself told me, "Leaders" in the field...can become very pompous and arrogant and so confident in their own abilities that they don't take their time to carry out the procedures carefully. And they can become very dismissive of patients." How true......the other "leader", Dr. Khouri, was so arrogant that he used myself as well as several other women here on realself, as unknowing and non-consenting guinea pigs for his experimental procedure.........I also found out that Khouri used this device called a "Refine" (just google "refinemedical" to see the short video about how it's implanted). It's a permanent, BARBED, mesh implant used to lift the breast. And lemme tell you--it causes so much incredible pain and the worst of it was that I never consented to it!!!!!! Ahhhhhhh............. So yea, I understand your disappointment about your outcome as well as the presence of unsightly scars. Ugh. Hang in there.
