ORIGINAL POST

Horrible results and hideous scars. Had used this...

Horrible results and hideous scars. Had used this surgeon for 20 years with beautiful results and then get botched like this. He was very uncaring and blamed my body for healing this way, when I had never had this problem before. Will never recommend him again, I am devastated. He also did not place one of my implants in properly and then wanted to charge me again for his mistake, then apologized but won't go back. They also accidentally burned my back in the OR, horrible overall experience.

He should have known this before he started, and the scars on the breasts came out the same. he did not place one of the implants in poperly either, it was a nightmare. he is "supposedly one o the best in the nation? but, to top it all off, his attitude was so uncaring, he blamed it on my skin. I believe in my heart that he used something different on my skin that caused a reaction, but, he would never admit he screwed up and it is almot impossible to use Doctors, so, I guess, I am stuck. don't ever want to see him again. He was my PS for 20 years!

This is clearly not your fault, you deserve a refund. What I meant to say is I wonder if you have enough skin on your stomach (now) to pull down and revise the scar.

Thank you Trust me, I understand. I went to Dr. Mel Ortega at Spectrum Aesthetics in Miami to fix the botched work of another surgeon. I paid $7500 for a mommy makeover. His stitchwork is really good, I used scar treatment tape that pulled off my skin and messed up his good stitch work. Spectrum works with a few financing companies, one is Care Credit.

Rod Rohrich, supposedly one of the best Plastic Surgeons in the U.S. He had been my Dr. for 20 years and was wonderful, but he no longer acts like he cares.

Wait until you see my rhino photos and the splints placed against best practices. Agreed. Run. Oh it’s how you heal. I have recordings of my visits. Pics of my visits. Run. Seriously. When they start using their office manager to take notes after you start saying negligence it gets real, real quick.
