I regret coming here

My experience with Elite plastic surgery was not a good one. I was wanting to get a bbl from this dr for years. I was sucked into the Instagram hype and all the positive reviews on RealSelf. Unfortunately I did not get the results I anticipated. The first red flag that I should have noticed is that you never get a real consultation. You are only told that you are a candidate which I trusted that I would be a good candidate for. I had a pretty decent body going into this procedure and did not think I would have any problems with a board certified plastic surgeon who is known for this procedure.

I didn’t get to see the Dr until the day of. They wanted me to come in first thing in the morning so I assumed my surgery would be in the am. I sat in a room waiting for hours basically all day before they took me back for the procedure.

I thought I had pretty decent skin going in. Was not expecting to be left with loose sagging skin all over my body from too much fat being taken out. The dr was too aggressive in his lipo technique and I am left with severely mottled skin all over my torso as well as my arms. My skin looks terrible now. So irregular and gross loose dangly skin. I don’t think providers should compromise skin integrity just to suck you dry off the fat just to pump a crazy amount into your butt. Had I known this I would have been happy with a conservative amount. I got what appeared to be a lipo burn and bad fibrosis where the burn was despite getting all the massages. My butt swelled up so badly from the amount of fat that was reinjected that now I have a very saggy droopy butt as all the fat seems to be sitting in the bottom of it. It feels very heavy. I never imagined my results would end up this way. I’m in my mid 40s so I wish the dr would have taken this into account or could have better gauged my skin elasticity.

Before this procedure I wore bikinis proudly although due to some insecurities that I let get the best of me I thought I could improve my body and shape. I would take my old body back in a heartbeat if I could. It’s been over a year and a half since my procedure and now I will never be able to wear a bikini again when I used to live in one all summer long. It’s even hard to wear a one piece because my butt looks oddly shaped. Basically this procedure has affected my confidence in the worst possible way. I feel like I am a different person and am so depressed over my new body. I am still having a hard time processing it all.

Please take your time when finding a surgeon. Make sure you get a proper consultation and don’t jump into it. I regret coming here every single day of my life it’s been so hard to adjust. I know feel like I need a tummy tuck, some kinda back lift, and even a butt lift where they cut the skin . I was never offered j plasma when I sent my pre op photos to see if I was a candidate. I was simply told yes I was a candidate with no feedback from the dr that I probably wasn’t a good candidate . I could have avoided this whole mess or jennie1 could have gone more
Conservative on the lipo. I mean really who would want this?? When consulting with other providers on how to fix this I was told that too much fat was removed and the liposuction cannula was too close to the skin and therefore damaged it, something that any board certified plastic surgeon should be aware of and not do !!! This is all so crazy to me

I attached pictures of me before and after. This is the mess I’m gonna have to deal with for the rest of my life. It took me so long to post this review keep hoping things will get better. But it’s obvious it’s not.
