Worst Doctor Ever!!
This review is long overdue. A little over 2 years ago I went to see Kole based on all of his positive reviews. During my consultation I told Kole that I wanted my breasts lifted as they had sagged over the years thanks to age, gravity and kids. I was very adamant that I did NOT want larger breasts. I just wanted my breasts back where they belong. Kole told me that in order to achieve the look I wanted I would need implants as well or I would end up with significantly smaller breasts. I was a C-cup at this time and I trusted him so I agreed. He explained the potential scarring but ensured me that if I don’t typically scar that these would fade over time.
During my second appointment when Kole was measuring me, he rubbed my breasts and said “wow these are so soft. Emily (the nurse? Office girl? I still don’t know) you should feel how soft these are”. That should have been when I walked out but sadly I didn’t. So why did I proceed! Honestly I was excited to get new perky boobs and naive.
Skipping ahead to after the surgery I saw that I had really big breasts. Kole told me that the “swelling” would go down. And I believed him.
When I was able to take my dressings off I was horrified. I had gaping wounds at the bottom of my incisions and my breasts were under my collarbone. Kole assured me this was normal and they would drop. They did not but my own breasts and skin did. The implants stayed all the way up. I expressed concern over this and said that it was embarrassing when I flexed my chest that it looked like I had 4 boobs. His reply was to not flex. During this time the wounds on my incisions were seeping and not closing. I was so focused on these wounds and the 4 boob issue which I now know is called animation deformity
Kole agreed to do another surgery to correct the issues. I was also upset that I now had extra skin on the sides of my breasts. I asked Kole about this and he grabbed ever bit of skin/fat on the side of my body and said only lipo could get rid of all this. I didn’t even know I had fat there! I asked how much that would be and he gave me a price but then said “but for you I could do it for this amount”. It was less than half of the original price and so I agreed.
I had my second surgery and he cut me again and pulled all the skin that had fallen up so that it looked like everything was even again. I now know that for this type of issue requires reposition the submuscular implants to a subglandular position. And so I had the same thing happen within a couple months. I also asked him where he did lipo because there was no difference in my sides or back.
My incisions were now worse. I began putting manuka honey on my wounds and they finally closed but I have extremely bad scars. I then really noticed my nipples. There were actual stitch marks around my entire areola. But even more troubling was that one nipple was significantly higher than the other and both areolas were really high. Just one. The other was hidden by my bra but just barely.
I can no longer wear a regular bra because of the shape of my breasts and the placement of the nipples. I can no longer wear any of the bathing suits that I previously wore because of these issues as well. I can no longer do many of the things that I used to enjoy doing such as going to the beach or swimming in a pool or even wearing many of the shirts or dresses that I used to wear. I wish I had never done the surgery because my breasts weren’t that bad I just wanted them lifted back up where they had been prior to nursing two children. Instead, now I am scarred and ashamed, and I hide my body.
I had also spent all this money and my breasts looked worse. Way worse!!
It was then that I decided not to return to Kole’s office. I sank into a really deep depression because I spent all this money and my breasts looked worse. Way worse!!
I also learned about deformity malformation as mentioned above and how a revision surgery SHOULD have been done!
