Didn't Have the Results I Expected: Multiple Revisions Needed for Each Procedure - Tijuana, Mexico

Hi Kirsty, the last revision I had left me with a huge block of scar tissue and an infection that went undetected for four months. I ended up having multiple surgeries in the US to reshape my stomach and reposition my belly button, which was nearly two inches off center. It turned out there was a large section of skin tucked in under the midline incision that got infected. The doctors here were shocked and said the tissue should have been removed before suturing. I paid $1,000 to Cosmed for the revision and felt I got nothing in return but six months of pain and medical bills. Dr. Quiroz told me over the phone it was a buried stitch and to have it removed under local anesthesia so I'm really grateful I had it addressed in the US as I can't imagine what might have happened if I'd had another procedure in Mexico.
