I had 2 previous breast augmentation's In Florida. 1st ones were silicone however, after years they ruptured & were replaced with saline. My scars were barely visable maybe 2 inch's long &light in color. The Saline didn't feel natural. I was referred to Dr. Mitchell to replace saline implants with new type silicone. I asked him if my scars would be same & was told they maybe tiny bit longer. Mitchell cut me from the left side of my breast all the way to the other side leaving 4-5inch scars under both breast @ least 1/2 inch wide. He sewed me up on the outside of my breast not internal stitches. My incision looks like railroad tracks you can see every punture mark & stitch màrk still to this day. He left the stitches in about a month causing more scarring. When I raise my arm it looks like a hole is there in the indention of the scar tissue on both sides. I no longer let my husband see me lying down or arms up. It truly makes me nauseated to look at the scarring. I went to get a few opinions from other Plastic surgeons & was quoted 7-8 grand just to do a scar revision. When I lay down they fall under my arms & you can see them. I also paid for them to be put under the muscle and that was also not done! I paid Cash & later found out it was also charged to my insurance. I wouldn't take my worst enemy to this man. I was truly botched and it can't be undone. Don't let his bedside manner during consultation fool you. Please ask around about his work. I know many ppl that have had horrible results from his work.

I found an excellent surgeon Dr Randy Rudderman in Atlanta Ga. He will be doing major revision in November or December 2014 repair surgery. However, due to the extent of my scars and issues. It may require 2 surgeries. I have friends and family and friends that have used him with excellent results. Needless to say I'm excited.
