Plastic Surgery Gone WRONG - Bellevue, WA

One more with my bathing suit on. FROM THE BACK !

$8,000
Notice the puckering and protrusion from the back. These scars were made when Dr. Sattler performed an EXTENDED BRACHIOPLASTY on me instead of a full Brachioplasty. The scarring is hideous, disfiguring and so completely embarrassing.

I am considering this surgery in southern California. Certainly no one who is not board certified, and definitely someone who does this surgery routinely, has before and after photo's of his own work, and testimonials from patients. It is tragic what happened to you. I'm so sorry....

Reading our story -- first my apologies and second - can't figure out this KTCby person. You can clearly see he "f cked up" but yet she goes on and says how great he is --- but yet when you go on her site -- surprise " no photos" So, to all of you who are reading her story -- my conclusion would be to stay away from Sattler -- and if you had good surgery with him --- the same type of surgery -- photo's would help!

Have you sought a lawyer for advice? Are you considering having arms redone again by a certified ps this time? I hope you find a reputable doctor that can help reconstruct your arms. Best wishes.
