1yr Post Op.

Unfortunately here I am 1 year post surgery and the results I have are not what I expected one year out. I will have to have revisions on my lipo as well as my breasts.
At first I thought it was normal to have a lot of pain in my breast as I underwent a lift as well as an augmentation. However one year post op I still find myself in pain and terribly uncomfortable. It is now to the point where I have to wear a lot of support to function or even sleep. My scars also hurt and look extremely unattractive. I have had steroid injections several times by the surgeon's nurse as well as applied several creams on a daily basis but nothing has helped. The doctor did not glue and tape my incisions, he stitched my breast back together with thick black stitching. About a month post op the stitching under my breast popped open. I immediately called the doctor crying as I was bleeding from my breast and this was obviously something terrifying. At this point he advised me it was normal just to apply Neosporin to avoid infection. Little did I know that this incident would cause me to have very large scars directly under my areola. After attempting to see the actual surgeon and getting the run around from his staff and only being able to see his nurse several times I finally was able to see him seven months after to explain to him that a year later these things ARE NOT normal. I was crying in his office, and he affirmed he would find a way to fix these issues as he could clearly see I was miserable. He was supposed to call me within a week. I called the office as I had not heard from my surgeon a week later, the woman that answered the phone asked me who I was and upon hearings name was so incredible rude and obnoxious. She immediately told me the doctor was not available to speak to me but to call back. He then called me days later to only advise me that he recommends I go to physical therapy!!!!!! I would have to pay out of pocket for physical therapy because my breast (near the areola) hurt. Or he recommended that I have my implants taken out, yes my breast would obviously sag but he refused to lift them once again and thinks it's acceptable for me to be okay with saggy breast with disgusting scars. I feel like he has no concern in helping me. As someone I put my complete trust in he completely let me down.
My liposuction sucked, for lack of a better word. I was never fat to begin with, so for my stomach to not be flat and still look "swollen" and for me to have to wear girdles to hide this embarrassing issue is unacceptable. The only way he'd fix this is if I underwent lipo all over again and pay for this ALL OVER AGAIN- per his nurse.
The point of me having all these procedures done with a surgeon that is board certified was to be comfortable, to trust him to only have these procedures done once in my life and have an acceptable result. Not to have to go through surgeries over and over and exhaust my finances just because he doesn't care enough.

I am extremely upset and disappointed. I was better and happier before than I am now. Unfortunately this is something I will have to take upon myself to fix and hopefully get over someday.

My decision to get a BBL was last minute. I went to Dr. Wiener in the begging of August 2013, and on that same day I was comfortable enough to schedule my surgery for the same month.
I had a child at the age of 19 and well my body wasn't what it was pre pregnancy. I had always had insecurities about my butt and no matter how much I went to the gym it wasn't where I wanted it to be.
I had liposuction of my arms, back, and stomach. The results took quite a bit of time for me to see the difference, however the shape of my body was completely different right after surgery.
My breast lift/augmentation was very well worth the pain in endured. My breasts look amazing and look and feel natural.
The BBL was the best part of all. I have curves I never thought imaginable and I don't look "fake". - VERY WELL WORTH IT!
