Upper and lower abdomen and back - 1st degree burns

$4,000
Dr. Yily De Los Santos was my doctor for my liposuction. I had Liposuction performed on my upper and lower abdomen and back. I woke up with bruising which is normal and two big BLACK marks that I thought were bruises until blisters formed. It turns out that the big BLACK MARKS WERE 1ST DEGREE BURNS! At first her workers tried to tell me that they were not burns until I did my research and saw that she had burned a few other women prior to me last year. I compared their pictures and my pictures and the burns looked exactly the same. After a few days of being in the DR, I talked with a few other women who had surgery with her that same week and they to had burns as well, Some worse than mine! Yily just looked at my burns and said they will heal and prescribed some cream that was "suppose" to help. I have attached two pictures of my burns to show everyone what it looks like. I went to her to look better and I came back looking worse! Not only am I having to recover from the surgery, I'm also having to recover from this severe burn! she is totally destroyed my self esteem and I hope everyone thinks twice about going to her!!

I am so sorry for you. Please try to get better. You are alive, so you can still get your self-esteem back with time. She almost killed me last Friday. I am still here in DR, thanking God for pulling me through. I'm staying at Sea Lily Recovery House. They've helped me tremendously.
Omg I feel bad for u , my prayers for u this is sad .. Be strong ..
Omg..almost killed you how? I'm suppose to be going to her may 23
I was given too much anesthesia. I will be posting a review soon. My recovery house, Sea Lily helped me to pull through. Yily is only concerned about the money. We are just bodies to her.
I have to agree with you on that. She is only concerned with the money and how many bodies she can do. I do not even believe she is the one doing all the surgeries, when I woke up on the table, she was nowhere to be found. I believe she is letting her unexperienced assistants do most of the surgeries and they are using out dated canulas. I'm happy you survived and are well, the recovery will be rough but you will pull through. Thank you for sharing your story with me. god bless you :)
Wow.....thank God for Jesus@msknchole. However, thanks to the bravery of both you ladies. Us other dolls can now enter with caution, you two are the real MVP's. I pray now that God will restore whatever confidence that was taken and salvage all harm that was done, in Jesus precious name. Amen! @msknichole and Denise67
I totally believe you a my friend also went to her and she woke up and it definitely wasn't Yily doing the surgery.
So said, but so true! I wish I would have read all the comments b/c I had my surgery 2/17/2017. I got burned on both sides! No follow up with her I keep sending photos. She nor her office not once replied. I will never refer anyone to her. I asked to be snatched & that's exactly what she did!
Do you have any up date pic
Really sorry try not to let this destroy your confidence. Treat the area and focus on a speedy recovery.
thank you :)
Thank you Justcee
Oh no I'm so sad for you it's terrible you had those burns. [RS bleep]
thank you :)
Im sorry to hear about the burn.Stay strong and continue to get better! Wow! I saw a picture with another RS lady with extreme burns from Dr. Boutte. Again, I'm so sorry, it's good that nothing worst transpired.
I'm thankful this was all, it could have been worse
Thank you Peral2016, yes thank God it could have been worse. I'm healing, this to shall pass.
Wow...happy that u pulled thru and feeling better
Thank you!
