Lumpy Bumpy Neck Lift After 4 Weeks - Fort Worth, TX

I am so very sorry you're having to go through this bad experience. Just wanted to say I totally understand where you're coming from because my experience almost mirrors yours! You can read my posting under "Lumpy bumpy neck lift after 4 weeks". It's so sad when we do our homework in finding a supposing good surgeon and then end up with problems we never dreamed possible! I recently had corrective surgery by a new plastic surgeon and a neck lift this past Jan. 23rd.(same day as you). I am healing very well and my neck looks much better. My PS did reassure me the lumpiness will go away and it is. But, because the first PS created so much scar tissue from the lipo I will probably always have an indentation under my chin that can not be corrected without fat injections. I also used the silicone pads and they seemed to help flatten out the scar tissue after about 6-7 weeks using them for 12 hrs. a night. My first PS also used the cortisone shot, but in my case it softened the scar tissue, but atrophied any fat tissue I had left and then my neck began to sag (not pretty). Yes, I too have gone through that VERY angry stage and I think it's pretty normal for what we went through. I hope things will continue to improve for you. My heart goes out to you for what you're having to experience. Best of luck.

Sorry, but your email address is hidden so I was not able to use that. Thank you for your inquiry and believe me when I say I'm very sorry to hear that you too had a bad result. I am just amazed at the number of women that have had bad plastic surgery results like ourselves. At this point I am less than 6 weeks post surgery. I still have a little scar tissue from my previous surgery that Dr. English is very cautiously trying to get to soften since it is pulling on my neck. This may need to be surgically removed in another month but this would be in his office and a simple procedure (at least he keeps assuring me of this). I have a lot of confidence that he will be able to get this corrected. I did not get any refund from my first doctor, so at least you got that much. Dr. English has 2 offices that I am aware of, one in Ft. Worth TX and the other in Dallas or possibly "Plano". If you Google him I'm sure you'll find his info. You're right about not believing reviews. The first Dr. I went to didn't have any bad reviews and a friend recommended him, although she went to him for a completely different procedure. I hope you're able to see Dr. English and I hope he can help your situation. Let me know if you are successful in doing so. God Bless, C

To be honest we (my husband & I) went to 3 different PS. This time we asked them to explain exactly what they would do to correct the situation, show us in detail where incisions would be and etc. One of the doctors I went to for a second opinion was to my surprise a friend with the first PS! He basically told me I got what I paid for! I said thanks I don't think I need your services!. As it turned out we decided to visit Dr. English because my husband had a procedure on his cheek a few years ago to have a cancer spot removed. Dr. English was the PS that stitched him up and to this day you can not tell where the surgery was. I wish I had just gone to English in the beginning but a good friend recommended the first PS and I thought he had a lot of qualifications and experience(big mistake). I think once we talked with Dr. E. we both knew immediately he was the one. Thank you so much for your responds.

I've recieved a lot of comments in the past few months and I would like to thank each of you that sent me encouraging words. When going through something like this it's easy to feel you're the only one. In the last 2 months I have gone to see 3 plastic surgeons (yes THREE). The consensus with all three was, I never recieved the neck lift I paid for, only liposuction under the chin area. On top of that I got a short S face lift (which amounts to a mini facelift) and not the traditional face lift as we discussed during consultation. As the swelling has subsided I'm left with an indentation and a lot of lose skin on my throat area which is very unsightly. When my husband and I paid a visit to the PS office I requested a refund and it was denied, even after I told him I no longer feel comfortable with him doing anymore surgery on me. He did say he would do the neck lift at no charge, but I would have to pay hospital and anesthesa cost. We decided there was NO way he would be operating on me again. I have since made arrangements to have another plastic surgeon fix this after the new year, even though I will be out thousands of dollars once again. I really appreciate those of you that recommended getting second optinions. I now feel deceived by the whole proceedure. What's really disturbing is I did my homework and went to a very reputable plastic surgeon.
