Miserable results

Had really high hopes that this doctor can fix my tuberous breasts but ended up looking and feeling like a Frankenstein with horrible scarring and one breast handing down while they other looking up and the implants swimming inside. My complaints about pain and discomfort were continuously ignored, I was told it was normal for implants to move freely inside and all I would need is a scar revision. At the end, after 1,5 years of suffering and wondering got diagnosed with seroma, he didn’t even bother looking at the MRI images of seroma and the lopsided implants, saying that aesthetically it was a good result and you can’t sacrifice beauty for symmetry and nothing better was going to be achieved.
Got consults from 3 reputable surgeons, all said over the muscle placement was wrong for me, the pockets were too big and the folds weren’t sufficiently addressed as one implant started sliding down while the other fold seemed to be left in the same natural position and not levelled with the other.So after years of planning for this surgery, ended up in a living hell, wish never found this doctor.Also, be aware, there is no communication in writing with him, you can of course write to his assistant but he would only call you back from an unknown number. His anaesthetist, Dr. Salmones, was lovely though and highly professional. I came out of the general anaesthesia really mildly with very little discomfort. Overall I wish I never met him and believe there are much better surgeons out there with more empathy, better skills and better taste.

Yes, already found a doctor that I’m comfortable with as can’t live with this any longer and wouldn’t trust same “guru” again. Amazing that other doctors actually use his techniques and one got very very surprised that my awful result was from him.

The shape actually looks good you just need scar revision. Unfortunately with breast lift scars spread did you use non dissolvable sutures? Using non dissolvable sutures on the revision would help. I have had scar revision on my breasts before. It just will never be 100 percent scar free but you can do 5-fu injection for the scars after revision and also around the nipple you will need permanent makeup that's what I did. And also a tattoo under your bosom. That's the only way to not have visible scars. Look up masctomy tattoos and you will find beautiful artwork over breast scars. I had. Beautiful flower piece done under my breast's to cover up my scars because I had two breast lifts and the scars usually stretch and are visible but you need a scar revision with removable sutures then use permanent makeup around areola scar and finally consider beautiful flower tattoos under the bosom
