This is my lipo burn from vive plastic surgery, I contacted them through WhatsApp and they have not replied!
Vive plastic surgery shady
If you're looking for a red flag about getting surgery with them, this is it. I'm 9 days post-op, I got lipo 360 with BBL. My doctor was dr. Guadalajara, I love my results he did an amazing job with my butt, however, I don't think it's worth the huge lipo burn I will now have to live with for the rest of my life.
Yesterday was my revision appointment to have my drains and stitches taken off when the nurse asked me to take off my faja the first thing he said was " your faja burned you" because he saw the huge burn mark I had on my stomach. He said he was going to prescribe me an ointment to help with the burn.
Today I went to my first massage with a licensed professional here in the US, the first thing she said was "They lipo burned you," "I'm gonna tell you this not to scare you but to help you, you need to seek medical attention because your skin is dying, if you don't seek treatment your skin will turn into a leather-like texture" she also told me she had various other patients with lipo burns too, also from Vive plastic surgery, tj!!! The staff at vive completely fooled and lied to me about my burn, and what medicine I was going to be put into my body! She told me one of her patients are seeking medical attention for her lipo burn from them. She told me it is very pricey, the treatment her patient is having has something to do with oxygen treatment at a dermatologist.
Unfortunately, after the surgery I have been left broke so I can't really afford to get treatment, I have been crying all day because they really screwed me over... Not only did they lie to me and say that it was a faja burn, but they also prescribed me some medicine which they said was gonna help me with swelling and the 2nd pills were to help me drain the lipo fluid more.
After doing some research on the medication, I've found out that it was actually for 2nd-3rd degree burns. And to make things worst, I just found out today thanks to my massage therapist that they didn't even bother to take my stitches off completely!!!!!! I'm extremely infuriated, they missed some stitches on three of my incisions, which my massage therapist had to take out. The nurse who took them off at the vive clinic seemed like he was in a rush so that probably explains why.
Another red flag is the day of my surgery I was told it was going to be at 12pm, but they said they were backed up so my surgery was actually from 8pm-11:30pm. And to top it all off, before my surgery I respectfully requested to not be recorded and not to be posted on social media. I texted my cousin when I was being brought to the surgery room that I was about to be operated on. She was eyeing their Instagram story and saw that they had recorded me and posted me.
Weirdly once I woke up from surgery and was brought back to my room, my cousin had informed me that they had posted my video, once I checked for myself it was gone. I think they deleted it once I woke up so I wouldn't see it... Or they blocked me from seeing it? I had the worst experience ever with Vive plastic surgery, they overbook and rush their surgeries! Please do yourself a favor and save your self heartbreak and pain, don't do it!
