Botched BBL and revision - uneven patches and indentation

BBL Pillow Substitute

My procedure is scheduled for Nov 15 2018 and I have been preparing for the recovery as much as I can. In an effort to find more budget friendly alternatives I found these foam gadgets in amazon (see pics) well it works perfectly for what I understand the pillow should do. My main concern is that I have to return to work so my main focus has been getting my work area ready before I have to go back. These are inexpensive and effective. I first bought the smaller one and that one does not work well with a desk chair, the longer one does. You can use the shorter one in the car and perhaps the bathroom.

Botched

When I had my procedure he was working at Premiere Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Tampa. The consultation was extremely brief and he seemed rushed or bothered when answering my questions. The first surgery, nothing of what needed to be done, was done. The first revision was the worst. He left my stomach with uneven patched of fat, and indentations where he seemed to have been trying to extract fat. When I went back to complain cause I'm still embarrassed of my body, they told me that they would do another revision, with a new doctor. Mendoza apparently was no longer there and there were several patients that needed revisions after his work. Nonetheless regardless of the revisions, my body is horrible and I would NEVER recommend this doctor to anyone.

Hi there. Im scheduled for a bbl revision with him in October. He did not do my original bbl 7 years ago. I see so many positive reviews from him, but i don't see a ton of pictures and the pictures i do see are not wowing me. You are the first one with what i feel is a honest review. So in your honest opinion i should not use this doctor? Rigo mendoza?
