Not worth it! I was small to begin with & gained unnecessary weight - Tampa, FL

I'm so sorry that you aren't having the best experience. From someone who works for their plastic surgeon, I can tell you that we get many patients that during the first month after surgery they feel that they did not get the results they were wanting, then the swelling completely goes down and everything evens out the way it is supposed to and the are soooo happy. That's why many doctors say that it takes 6 weeks for your results. I would wait the full 6 weeks and then discuss your options with your surgeon or before looking for guidance from another surgeon. I wish you the best of luck and a very speedy recovery! Xoxo

Wow I see the doctor and a staff comment on this post. In defense of her I also feel I didn't get my desired look. I only got 340 cc and had adequate amount of fat to transfer. Doctors need to understand we spend life saving or sacrifice to get this surgeries. We want to look much differently when we come out of surgery. True you have to wait but like her I knew early on I wasn't going to have the results I wanted. My suggestion to doctors is to ask how many ccs a pt what's and is it realistic. Dont promise something you can't do or keep. My doctor said he could do my calves at consult and the day of surgery he said he couldn't. I'm pissed and feel cheated. I see women on her with immediate results not 6 weeks later. I know the difference in swelling and not being sculpted right. I haven't put the name of my doc out there until I go in on my 3 month and see what he is willing to do or if I'm willing to give him the chance to touch me again. It would be nice if I could fet some money back and go see my next choice doctor. If he would've been honest about my calves I would have went to my next choice.

i cant see anything from ur pics. where are before and after pics?

how is everything now? Im considering this doctor dor the same procedure

I'm sorry about your experience. Please post pics

Wow! You are only 2.5 weeks post op and really need to relax! Remember that it takes 6-8 weeks for the swelling to be better and sometimes longer. That is why your belly is not more flat yet. The buttocks will be very swollen and tight for many weeks. You can feel hard, lumpy and inflamed areas for many weeks until the skin starts to relax. Massaging the lumpy areas will help them to soften more quickly. You can also see more uneven areas in the buttocks if you lay on one side more than the other. You may swell on the side that you lay on more frequently. Remember it takes 6-8 weeks for the swelling to diminish. Comments such as yours are really not constructive and helpful to this forum. As you can read from the dozens of other patient comments on Real Self, I am very attentive to my patients and care about how they are progressing after surgery. If you are having so many issues after surgery, you should come in the office and discuss with me...make another appointment! Don't rely on the comments of others for your medical advice! You should seek the advise of your Doctor!

he should've emailed and from what you said he was more attentive to you here.smh obviously a commercial saving face. Sorry ur a beaut tho
