Disappointing BBL. I am still unhappy with this lopsided stomach

Disappointing BBL

I was referred by someone to Dr. Daniel Zeichner. He is located in Plantation Florida at Adore Plastic Surgery. I received a consultation from Adore through text with one of their coordinators. Which is where my pics where sent also. I originally was making an appointment for another doctor there although I was referred but was convinced by the coordinator to switch to Dr. Zeichner not to mention the girl who referred me body was NICE!! I made a down payment and requested June 10th as my surgery date. I was sent to my portal where I made payments. I did everything I was suppose to do before surgery leading up to my surgery date. I had to cancel my flight and reschedule for the 10th because no one had contact me from Adore saying I was approve to take flight for my surgery. Finally I was approved and planned to take flight on the 16th. I got to my appointment and was told my doctor missed giving me one of my blood test. My doctor was able to fax the results over which moved my surgery date to June 18th on a Friday. Pre op was fine it was a few people in front of me and lot of ladies saying how they were getting canceled for high blood pressure and other things. Basically they were getting canceled for anything! I was seen at pre op and told when to come back but was not giving a time. Finally a day before surgery in the evening I got an email to come in the morning. I got there before the office was suppose to open. I met and spoke with Dr. Zeichner for the first time the day of my surgery. He was very nice and told me what he was going to do and how he does not do exotic bbl’s I was so disappointed. But had faith because I had seen some good work of his but I had also seen some of his bbl work that was not very great. I told his how I had been waiting so long for this and had faith that he would deliver. Boy was I wrong! Out of surgery I was in a little pain. I had also gotten lipo to my arms which he did a good job with. Speaking of lipo to my arms that took away from the fat being removed from my stomach which he told me he would only take 400cc I thought wow I seen that it was more in Florida but ok. The next day I got my massage from a lady in Florida some ladies had told me about. ( I thought she was good until I got back home and had someone else give me my lymphatic massage.) I stayed in Florida for 6 days and got 4 massages while I was out there. The massage therapist said I looked good and that to wait till the swelling went down. Monday when I was able to go to post op I got my pictures taken by adore and some foams I was told I would receive but had to ask for. I was also told I’d be given a garment but did not receive it I have the text for proof! Any who I was able to wear my stage 2 faja said the post op coordinator so I went and bought one and put it on the next day after my massage. I went home the next day also. When I got home 2 days later after leaving Florida I realized my stomach had a crease on the right side. My stomach was basically lop sided! It looks like it was liposuction more on that side. I have called and explained my concern about the crease it took weeks to hear from someone regarding this issue. When I spoke to my post op coordinator she told me to send her pics and I had requested that Dr. Zeichner give me a revision. She took another two to 3 weeks to respond to me saying she will have him to call me or maybe do a video chat to see my stomach him self. Finally I was called back the coordinator and Dr. Zeichner they both had snotty attitudes! When I told Dr. Zeichner out my own mouth over the phone I was unhappy and wanted a revision he snapped at me saying he would not do my surgery over and that I had a high BMI saying some stuff I was confused about come to find out he had the wrong chart. He apologized and we got to talking about what I can do next which was nothing about him giving me a revision! He told me I can exercise and keep compressing and getting massages. He told me I was not that far along and was still swollen at this time it was august I believe. He told me to call him back in January to speak again and see if the results had changed. Here it is now December and I am still unhappy with this lop sided stomach I mean not only is my butt not big or have that shelf look I wanted after the swelling went down but my stomach is still big also! It’s looks as if I did not have anything done I mean close ppl to me notice but no one can tell I got lipo done to my stomach until I wear a fitted shirt and the indentation on the right side of my stomach shoes smh. It’s so depressing!

Thank you for your story! I was scheduled to have surgery with him this month, and after the poor communication with the coordinator, and all the run around I received from them, I decided to cancel my appointment and I got my deposit back with the help of my bank. They are the most unprofessional, I cannot even describe the frustration and stress they put me through. I am so sorry you had to go through what you did.

Yes they are very poor with communicating!

The worst!! As soon as they got my deposit, it was downhill from there. Not only is the communication with me was bad, the communication amongst their staff, very unorganized! I received an email from them long after I canceled my surgery, telling me they never received my clearance and lab results, did they not communicate??? Obviously NOT!! But also, I dug deeper into the surgeons history, their main surgeon has a malpractice, and the woman surgeon is not a certified surgeon, she's a physician. Too many quirks with the staff. Wishing you all the best and I hope you are able to accomplish the results that you want.

the whole thing sounds sketchy... First of all ,that is very cheap for a BBL with lipo 360. I had mine done in Tampa for $8000 and that was the average price...If its too cheap, then they are taking shortcuts... Did you ever have a consultation with the surgeon either virtual or inperson way before you booked? That is another red flag... They only removed 400CC? that is nothing... I had a skinny BBL and my doctor was able to remove 1500CC and inject 750 in each side . She said I did not have alot of fat to remove... I would RUN from this doctor....

I ran as far s I could! It's unfortunate that she had to go through what she did.

Hi lovely How come he didn't hardly remove much fat? In my opinion, you would've benefitted for a tummy tuck too as you have residual overhang which he should've address with you and gave you the option.

He didn’t remove enough at all because he lipo my arms also. So basically I was told that took from the 400cc he took out of me. Which he did mention I would still have some fat on my stomach.

BBL gone WRONG!

I asked Dr. Zeichner for a revision he told me to check back with him in January and I can make a decision. I knew that sounded unreliable but I waited and called in January and spoke to a new post op coordinator and she told me he said he would do it and that I had to pay $1,500 I said ok fine. That price was suppose to be for anesthesia and the OR room says the coordinator. She was suppose to send me the portal and never did I have been calling constantly and the last time I called someone new answered and told me he doesn’t do revisions! I’m so over this doctor and his bs! I’m moving on to a new doctor!
