I had about a year looking for a doctor to get a liposuction on a few areas on my body. I did a lots of research and I came across Cynthia Disla. When I contact her she felt like the best surgeron for me. I felt comfortable and she always responded to my emails. When I went for a consultation she was rude, and was talking about me with her other patients. She did not care that I was in the other room. The only reason I decided to do my surgery with her in the summer of 2014 because I didn't see no negative reviews about her. This was the worst mistake of my life! I wanted a liposuction and she recommend me a tummy tuck. The day of my surgery I had to get two bags of blood transfusion because I had anemia. I was awake during my whole surgey and felt most of the surgey. My scar is from hip to hip and my tummy tuck line keep opening up and she was sewing me up cold blood everyday for almost a month. I was in so much pain I just wanted to go home. Bad enough I caught an infection in my belly button because the recovery house I was staying was not cleaning my belly button. I feel like this was the worst investment I ever made. I do not look like I had surgery. I had love handles which I do not have no more. My stomach is a bit smaller. But I don't look as slim as I expected to be. I just look like I lost 5 or 10 pounds, which is better than before but not what I expected. My arms look the same as they were before surgey, which makes me look like a football player. I told her to put fat to my butt but didn't add enough because she said she doesn't like big butts. I have a keloid from the drain, and I have scare tissue. I feel a bit better about my body because I look slimmer. But my scar does not allow me to feel comfortable about myself. Everyday I have to look at the scar and it reminds me of everything I went through. My scar has made feel me more insecure about myself. I have emailed Disla and told her I am not happy with my results, and she told me that theirs nothing she can do about.

My doctor was mean when I told her I wasn't happy and she told me the same thing your doctor said.

@brooklyn01 Once they get paid its like they don't care about you anymore. @Kimmers25 You're welcome. I just hope no one goes through what I experienced.

I am so shocked to hear this as she was so attentive and was always helpful this is the 1st bad review I have seen on her since I have being home I have kept in touch and she has always replied so sorry to hear if your upset

I didn't see no bad reviews about her that's why I decided to go with her. Maybe I was her first bad experience or maybe theirs been others who have experienced a bad practice and did not write a review. At first she was like that, so nice and attentive. But after surgery she turned out to be the total opposite. She really doesn't care about her patients after she's been paid and surgery was done. I'm still struggling with my scar.

It's been 3 years and I am not fully healed. My scar hasn't disappeared. I've gotten massages and used scar creams.

You poor thing! Your like me in the way that I always trust professionals and give them the benifit. I wonder if the scar is wide because you didn't need a tt and it's tension or pulling of the tight skin that made the dark coloring by scar?

The scar is wide and dark still :( I have to fix my scar but I am still scare of the experience I went through.
