Botched - suffered every day since this operation

Horrible botched thread lift
$15,000
So it’s been three years. I have suffered every day since I have had this operation. Dr Mendieta has nothing to say. As I do my research I feel so stupid. I just trusted him. Like an idiot. I mean universally ALL reputable surgeons won’t do a thread lift because the scarring, indentation, discoloring is NORMAL!!! He tried to tell me it was my fault. I have had five consultations in Los and every one just assumed I went to Mexico to get this done. I told the no it was a an actual plastic surgeon in the US. Please be careful when seeing Dr Mendieta if it goes well fine but any and I mean anything goes wrong you will be treated like SHIT. It’s going cost me around 20 grand to fix this. I have already spent thousands and really I have to find a doctor who can do a compete surgery again. All the top doctors are scared to help me. I can’t wait to feel normal again.

Dr Mendieta Botched me.
I posted more pictures because someone could not see the severity of the damage. Dr Mendieta and his team think this is normal when you have a boob job! They have no compassion that overnight I couldn’t wear anything not a thing. I was practically suicidal because I have a career where I need to actually wear clothes and leave the house. I will still have to spend thousand of dollars. They did nothing. I couldn’t get Dr Mendieta to even call me. They just wanted me to fly to Miami. So when I did spend the money to fly to Miami he was rude, nasty. Told me I gained alll this weight. Said, “I can’t control the scarring! You didn’t want a breast lift! Then he said, “yeah the lift didn’t work anyway!” My breast were a size C. When I got them done he made much bigger even though I didn’t want them much bigger.” So they are heavier as welll. With this string lift it obviously can’t hold the weight. I didn’t want a lift. Never heard of a string lift and my stupidity was even going to guy who really only does fat transfer.

I still don’t see the issue but ok girl.
I hear ya girl, wish I was making something out of nothing! Trust! I have had to had to have 5 sessions of micro needling, cortisone shots for keloids, fraxel for further smoothing. I have scheduled stem cell fat transfer for the entire chest area to address all the indents. And will have skin colored tattoos on the incisions and hopefully will be able to just wear normal tank top. All of this will cost around another 10 to 15 grand. But if you don’t see anything wrong and a huge indent looks normal to you. Don’t know what to say. Wish you better than me on your journey.
I see it, it’s clear there’s a dent above her breast. It looks caved in.
After three years it’s caved in. What he didn’t tell you it’s really hard to get these sutures out. I am just scared to make it worse. That person saying they didn’t see anything I know was working for his office!!!
This Doctor is the worse Dr. ever and he’s staff and nurses are incompetent and all without proper degrees . They destroyed my breast , I am forever scarred .
ORIGINAL POST
Horrible Got Complete Botched
He is one of worst plastic surgeons out here. He completely botched me! I went to him to replace my breast implants. I woke up with horrific scars on my chest from a sting lift he suggested during a rushed consultation. I didn’t want a lift and really didn’t need a lift. He told me there would be two little dots on my upper chest area. I woke up with a scrunche on my upper chest. If been two years and thousands of dollars later and my whole upper chest is completely botched. He actually blamed me and told me he can’t help how I heal! I will never be able to wear anything again. He was rude, disgusting, and defensive.

I went to him for butt implant he did a fantastic job at that
I really don’t see what is wrong.. Maybe it’s just the picture quality?
I will put up more picture.
I understand my experience was horrible! I think if everything is okay there is no problem. But when there is a problem they blame you and do nothing to help. I know great people for breast. I should of stayed in Los Angles. I have not been able to wear anything for two years and probably won’t for the rest of my life. You are lucky!
No offense, but all surgeries have scars and it is not an exact science. I see the scar you are talking about, but that is not unreasonable in my opinion. I’ve been to Dr. Mendieta with great results. If you went to your follow up ready to blame and fight, you will get a response similar to what you describe.
No offense, but you're an idiot!
