Update (salama)- Aventura, FL revision 10/27/14

I made it home safely and I will post a few pic soon. I had to gather my thoughts because I was feeling a lil irritated and had mixed feelings on my results. First I think we shouldn't go in with expectations because I had them and they were not met. I needed a revision. But I ask why? It is undetermined who's fault it is that it needs to be revised in the first place. Or if there is a fault and it's just the way it goes.... I had one cheek that drooped lower then the other veryyyy noticeable in shorts or swim suit ; Fat pockets/dimples; Fat necrosis on my My hips and they were uneven which was noticeable in bodycon dresses or to the naked eye. Flatness which showed in legging and lt looked very square.

I was suppose to Have a pre op appt which was canceled and scheduled for the day of surgery. Well pre ops are important to discuss a plan and also the patient opportunity to express concerns and to feel at ease. My Time to do pre op was seconds before my surgery. I felt rushed. Not to mention I was definitely feeling some kind of way because the day of my surgery I was the last patient of the day. It was late and possibly the doctor and staff were tired
Ready to go home. During my "pre op" quote unquote! I pointed to my concerns and he agreed my findings was accurate and I asked if I could select the area/s he would use. He said we are not here for another BBL this is a revision! *jaw drop* And he would take from my back only. *gut punch* I'm like Well what about the uneven lipo on my stomach that was the result of round 1? I was given a reason why not and I took it to be just the fact he was trying to hurry this along. And or that's extra! $$ I would not have mind to pay for extra had that been discussed in pre op but oh yeah that's right. I never had a true pre op.

It's really to bad that I have to say these things because my first experience was the total opposite.!! But that was 2 yrs ago when he was building his business and becoming a bbl guru. Things have definitely changed so I have to be honest in my review. It may help someone so they are prepared and know what to expect.,

The reason I say don't have expectations is because you will be disappointed. In my mind a revision was fixing all the areas needing a revision and while I'm down he would go ahead and touch up any additional areas needed. Let me just say My revision was not free. There is a fee and I also occurred travel expenses which were ;hotel fees ; rental car; airfare; food; and nurse for 2 days. I would have much rather'd it was a successful round 1. I feel the customer service; and patient care has declined.

The recovery time on revisions is less. And much faster. I was getting around pretty good compared to the round 1 ladies I stayed with for the first 2 days. Although I still went through the itching and was very uncomfortable. Omg I forgot about how uncomfy and painful it would be!! So initially I emailed the doc because I didn't see immediate results and I didn't wanna get all the way home and it was something he could tweek while I was in town . His response was I needed to give it time. Go figure.... So fast forward to now..... It took some time to see but My results are much better then what I had before. I still have more healing to do its only been 6 weeks or so. I asked my fiancé and he says its rounder but I do still see some areas of flatness. Because I know where to look and the angle that shows the flatness. But I do agree yes its rounder. My hips are now more even and I have less fat pockets then before so he did deliver but did not go no where near out of his way.

At the end of the day I do feel he is able and a great person. My advice is for dr salama to slowwwww down and give the patients the time and care they deserve. Talk with his staff to make sure the patient care and customer service is up to par. Be a little more generous to patients on round 2 revisions especially ones that occurs out of town expenses and especially if you know it's possibly due to something you may have did or didn't do. Taking care of your patients is a win win situation. They are walking billboards for you and the reviews will come with that which will generate more revenue.

P.s my experience with the nurse was different in person. However she needs to check her attitude over the phone because in a different situation a bad over the phone experience won't develop into a in person redemption.
Take care!

Pics coming

I first wanna say that it's been 2 yrs since I frequented this site. There has been many changes with the format and I'm not too happy nor use to the changes. Overall it's just not the same!

So I arrived today.. My preop is schedule same day just hours before my revision. I'm staying at the palm aire again for 6days because I prepaid for the days.... But immediately after surgery I'm staying at the recovery house for 2 days until my husband gets here to take care of me and we will return to our hotel. He just couldn't get all the days off.

As of now I'm going to reserve my comments on the staff at EPS well one nurse in particular this go round has been very stressful (with the exception of Nancy! She is and has always saved the day) ; speaking to different ppl ; corresponding emails to different ppl; miscommunication; company changes; and that 1 nurse who I feel is quite pain but I'm hopeful things will smooth out. At one point I was gonna jump ship.... I'm Glad to know Nancy is still around because She is a true asset to EPS and I hope they recognize that!!!......... This world needs more Nancy's!!!!

On a higher note I can't wait til tomorrow. I'm hoping he fixes allllll my concerns and I'm salamafied to perfection ;) he is good at what he does !!!

I will keep you all posted xoxo
