Improper Fat Removal and Gaslighting

Improper Fat Removal and Gaslighting

$16,000
I paid $16k and left with a botched body and gaslighting after it was clear he made a mistake.


-Dr Alwen was 6 hours late to my surgery. I spent the entire day freezing in a robe on an uncomfortable doctors chair
-He blasted techno music from the next room over during my entire wait (yes the full 6 hours), making relaxation impossible
-I wasn’t guided correctly for what my body actually needed because you speak to salespeople “coordinators” not Dr Alwen until the day of the procedure. Now a big red flag I wish I saw prior
-He removed next to nothing from my mid to upper back, leaving it unblended to my lower back and hips. It looks very strange, like I am wearing invisible spanx. I looked much smoother prior to this procedure.
-I had concern about my hips and didn’t want much or anything at all taken from them to preserve my natural curves. He said not to worry as it’s part of the "shaping”. I am now left with odd unnatural dips in that area. Very obvious in my pictures attached. I now don’t wear the tight, show off your curves dresses I used to wear often because or the strange dips that were never there before
-Although it wasn’t a part of the fat removal, my low hips were the most bruised and to this day I have pain there still, unlike anywhere else on my body
-I have weird unnatural indentations above my bottom that align with the hip dips. Worse on one side but visible on both. Dr. Alwin tried to gaslight me, claiming it was sagging skin. I knew this was incorrect as the dips were visible immediately after, even with the swelling. I saw 2 independent plastic surgeons for second opinions. Both confirmed he removed too much fat from the areas, creating the dips that will now require a fat transfer to fix.
-After I brought up my concerns, I was sent a $5k invoice of Dr Alwen’s suggestions to fix his mistakes! Claims he did nothing wrong, from even an untrained eye it’s obvious he messed up big time….
-I did this procedure to add to my breasts after a weight loss. I loved my body but wanted them fuller. They increased by about 1/4 of a cup size. If i’d known my body would take this big of a hit I would have never done this.
-A year ago, I was in the best shape of my life. Now, Im not comfortable wearing half my closet or a bikini for summer. I wish I read a review like this and backed out before it was too late. Do not trust Dr Alwen with your body or your money. It will be the biggest mistake of your life!
