George P. Zavitsanos, MD

Dr Zavistanos performed lipo on abdomen. He recommended Spanks. Problem I’m 4’11” and Spanks are for tall women 5’7”-5’10”. They left me with lumps on hips because they were folding at waist. He also convinced me to do lipo on my legs. Big mistake my legs are uneven. Right thigh noticeably bigger than left. Leg has like a dent in it. On left leg skin has a fold. My thighs and knees are the same width. I am now looking to correct it. Updated on 6 Dec 2021: Dr Zavistanos took away my curves with leg lipo. I didn’t need it I’m completely out of proportion; proportioned more like a male. My hips are gone! What else am I supposed to say. My legs tapered from thigh to knee now they’re the same width. Very sad.

Hello Everyone, I am actually scheduled for my preop tomorrow. I never really thought about getting implants until after I had kids and I saw the impact that breastfeeding had on my breast, But what sealed the deal was having two biopsies on the same breast, thank God everything eventually came out to be negative but my breast is kind of jacked up. After battling my insurance company I finally received approval to have a mastopexy and augmentation so now back to my preop tomorrow I am not as nervous about the actual surgery as I am about the anethesia. Back in 2014 during my salpinectomy I had a very traumatic event with anesthesia which resulted in two attempts to put me under within a week, blood shot eyes, swollen face, blood around my mouth, internal bleeding, hematoma, and if I had listened to the nurse at the surgical and stayed home instead of going to the hospital, I may not have survived. To God be the Glory I am still here but hence the reason I am leary of anesthesia. This is not my first surgery with this doctor he performed my tummy tuck as a result of severe diastasis recti from having five kids in five years. Any advice is greatly appreciated I work in a school and do not know how much time I need off and I am trying to not think about the anesthesia. I will let everyone know how my preop goes tomorrow. Thanks for reading my long post. Updated on 9 Mar 2015: Well my preop appt didnt go as planned. I found out that my insurance company only approved one side so I am now waiting for a quote from my doctor as to what my fee will be. I never expected this to happen I guess I was wrong for thinking that they did things evenly. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Feeling bummed out and confused.
