NO ONE should go through something like that. I am very sorry to hear what you've been through. This is scandalous!! However, I am so happy to see that you found a surgeon who was willing and able to help you out. The result so far looks fantastic! He seems to have done an excellent job. I wish you all the best in the world!

?I had my last operation on my breast 7 weeks ago.

sampantha03

I found a surgeon that was willing to put implants in last year. and I went back to him 8 weeks ago while he done scar correction and also moved my nipple down as it was 3cm to high on my right breast.as for the surgeon that caused the damage.he is meant to be going to court in December the fitness to practice panel. the gmc think that the surgeon will not turn up .the will proceed in his absence. he is meant to be practising in Germany now. I have also found a number of girls that he has damaged. when I went to see an independent plastic surgeon. he read through my operation notes and he said the surgeon has taken the skin away first then put the impants in.he had caused the breast to breakdown as he had stitched me to tight and damaged the blood supply.

Your original post is from 2011 - and you are saying 8 weeks ago you've had another surgery with a different surgeon? If you are trying to help ladies here, it would be prudent to include the name of the surgeons so others can avoid?? You've had (or still have) nipple necrosis which is very serious and of course, anyone here would be very sorry to see you've gone through this. As much as I'm very sorry for what you're saying you've gone through, I don' think its very responsible to say something like this without details...as amarie300 says, its causing unnecessary panic for people.

Did you see my comment that i had left .i wasnt allowed to name the surgeon at first.as i had a legal case against him and i was adviced by my solicitor.i can now name him.he is mr adeogba and i believe he is now working in germany as he has been struck off in the uk
June 21, 2014
Hi, I recently had a tt (irrelevant to your experience as I had a different surgeon) however 9 years ago I had Mr Adeogba do my BR (gulp) it was at a private clinic that the NHS funded for me. Even then he was working in Germany because I can recall him having to catch a plane during my time of op/recovery. Fortunately I didn't have any healing issues although the larger of my breasts is now the smaller:( they are both different shapes and the nipples were placed slightly too high. I guess I have to be grateful that things could have been a lot worse. xx
June 21, 2014
Sorry me again :) Just read your original post . I have no fullness in the upper breasts and the bottomed out look(although no implants) and my initial concern to him about the bulging on one breast below the nipple he put down to swelling although I knew it wasn't and I was right!!
September 17, 2013
Hi everybody sorry havnt been on here for a while and only seen all your comments today.yes dreamgirls i had my final op nearly 8 weeks ago. I got my first operation in aug 2010 that was when all the damage was caused.then i got told by every doctor i seen that putting implants in was far to risky. So i spend months devestated as you can imagine thinking there waa no hope.then i met a girl who had also been damaged by the surgeon . She put me in touch with a plastic surgeon douglas mcgeorge.he is an amazing man.he told me he would put implants in.which he did and 3 days post op i was near healed.that was may last year. I had my final surgery with him 8 weeks ago that was to correct the scars and to move the nipple. The reason it has taken so long between ops is that ihave had to pay for all 3 and in total its cost £15 000.so trying to find the money was hard.i couldnt name the surgeon at first because i had a legal case against him my solicitor advised against this but i can name him now his name was mr adeogba .i believe he is now working in germany .

sadly my breast never healed it just got worse..i went to see another surgeon for a second opinion.and he told my if i was to get another implant in there is over a 50% chance that i could loose my whole breast.the surgeon has caused too much damage to the blood supply and my nerves.i now have no feeling in my breast.i am really upset as i am now left with odd breasts.one is alot bigger and wider and hangs further down.he has also positioned my nipple too high on my right breast.my right breasts need an uplift again but i wont be going back to the same surgeon.

You poor baby I am so sad to see this.
I have had a bad surgery too the Doctor put implants 5 times bigger than I asked for and my nipples are two inches one higher than the other and the right side bottomed out making them look horrible and deformed.
He also did a breast lift cutting vertically when I asked that he did not do thisI wanted a mastopexy which just cuts around the nipple to make them exactly the same as one side was a little larger areola than the other now its ten times worse...
I am in France and I am suing the Doctor and hope to get a settlement soon it has been going on for three years.
If I do not get the expected settlement I will take it to the European Court of Appeals.
I had to go to an Expert in the field and he has said in his report that the Doctor did a wrong procedure so he is at fault its just taking a long time and I have had to live with this for three years..
I know how horribly stressful this is for us Woman especially when we do these procedures to improve ourselves, my heart is with you, all of you who go through this you are not alone ...

are you a smoker? i heard they dont heal if you are?

Brookeh, Hi there....... I smoked liked a chimney 18 years ago when I had my implants put in. I realize after having my lift/reduction done 4 weeks a go, that Augmentation is nothing like the incisions needed for a Huge lift HOWEVER I just felt like I had to say I healed with no visible scar around my areola 18 years ago. Now that I am done with having babies I had my lift I originaly needed and TT. I see no signs of having any different kinds of healing now from then when I was in my twenties and smoked. Just this time there's no pain in healing at all hence the pocket was already created before. So though I agree you should not smoke, I can't say it's a forsure doom to great healing.
