Please do not use this Dr. for your breast surgery. Please see my review.

It has been a very long and expensive learning experience. I only wish someone had posted a review like mine before I made the mistake of using him. I recently found Dr. Said Hakim in Seattle and he was able to take out the implants and work with the terrible, strange scars Dr. Jacobsen had left me with. He was a professor of Plastic surgery or 15 years and had never seen such a botched job as mine. Please find someone else more qualified in breast surgery.

This is how they look now. The scars are awful. I’m hopeful I can find a plastic surgeon to fix them.

I guess my reasoning was that he deals with skin cancer patients so I thought he’d be really good with scars. I made a mistake.

I feel like you almost had the right line of thinking.. Yes, you want a doctor who specializes in giving you good results with minimal scarring. However, the best option for that would be a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in breast augmentation AND breast lifts (not just augmentation). I think you should look for someone like that to do your scar revision. Make sure you look at their before and after photos on their website, too. You want to look for which doctor has patients with the least visible scars. That was a huge reason I chose my doctor.

Yes I'm going to start doing some extensive research before I get up my nerve to do the revision. This last surgery was so disappointing.

Hello. Did you get scar revision? If so where? I seen this same surgeon for a breast reduction and I am totally BOTCHED! I don’t know what to do.

Not yet. I did consult with one surgeon but she said she honestly didn't think she could fix them since the incisions are place at such an angle. I'm still looking for a surgeon to do my revision.

I'm sorry for your experience. I have had a nightmare as well. I wish there was a way to get in touch to discuss

Revision?? Before you do anything you need to SUE THAT DOCTOR!!! What is the reason forgiving you a scar like that??? Is he crazy???

I put a comment before this explaining the difference of a plastic surgeon vs. cosmetic surgeon

I also had surgery with him and he left me disfigured. By the grace of God, I found another surgeon who has dealt with cancer patients. He said he’s never seen scars like ours before and there is no reasoning behind it.

I now need to find someone to do a scar revision or possibly just take them out...

They are shaped rather odd but at least I’m a 34 D instead of 34 ddd. I had 275 ccs to replace the 425s from previous augmentation. The scars are really bad and I’ll post some pics of the final boobs I’m left with after 1 year 12 months. :(

Holy moly, you wanted a donut lift and that's what they gave you??? Most of the time I know you can't sue, but in this case, you did not sign off on paperwork for anything other than a donut lift!!! Why do you have those incisions???
February 2, 2021
Yes...I did ask him and he just kinda laughed...He did say he could try to fix them for around the 3,000 facility fee but I was too afraid to. I asked on this RS sight what kind of incision I had and one of the doctors mentioned he'd only seen it in the Phoenix area called the j incision. I wished I had used someone else but hindsight....
February 2, 2021
He LAUGHED at you??? Why even rate him 3 stars? This doctor clearly took advantage of you and only cares about your money. Do you still have your paperwork you signed when you got the surgery? It should say somewhere on there that you agreed to a donut lift and an augmentation, not this J shit. You literally didn't agree to anything else (if it's on the paper work you signed) and I believe you could easily go to a lawyer and get their opinion on it.
February 2, 2021
Hold on, I'm looking up "J scars" right now, and he didn't even give you that. What he gave you is something else entirely. J scars look like an inverted J. Do your incisions look like that? I definitely don't think so.
February 2, 2021
I think maybe getting a scar revision with a different doctor would be the best option, unless you're still wanting to go smaller?
February 2, 2021
Yes I think I was in denial and embarrassed that I went with the cheaper Dr. against my better judgment. Now I think I'll look for someone else to do a scar revision. I haven't put any pics of the final results but they're pretty bad.

Oh he thinks this is funny, I would laugh his ass straight to the court house. This is just a law suit. He definitely so you in a vulnerable position and took advantage of you. Please take him to court.
