After a year of research and saving I finally got my BBL and am now 1 week post op only to feel deeply disappointed with my results. I am by no means a skinny person nor do I wish to be i simply wanted some curves instead of lumps and a big booty....before surgery I was about 60lbs overweight and my doctor said i had plenty of fat for the booty i wanted.....after surgery he said he only put in 400cc to which i started crying....im now left with loose skin in my butt area and a minuscule lump for a butt......i have no idea what to do now since i cant just go and pay for ut again this was a treat for myself but now i feel like i just gave away my money andgot nothing in return

D & D: I am so sorry that you paid $5,000 and got such a minimal result. Sounds like your doctor had little experience in BBL. But don't give up! Continue to call the doctor and insist on a written report of why he did not give you what you had asked for. Advise them you are writing bad reviews on every web site available- there are many for doctors. After they read a few you will be surprised at their reaction. And follow up with a letter to the Medical review board of Florida. I did this for a terrible attorney that handled my divorce and she ended up dropping her fees if I would take off the bad reviews.

Ok so I have past my 1 month with no contact from the doctor I had to contact them and when I asked about the revision that was promised all I got was a response from thier office manafer yari moreno saying that it was not possible because I have no fat I just have thick skin (apparently very thick) I have continued to used my rx weightloss meds in hopes of somewhat fixing this but it seems its not working im losing some weight but I still seem disfigured.......also I want everyone to be aware that in the state of florida it is not mandatory for any surgeon to carry medical malpractice insurance so make sure the doc you choose carries it otherwise you will be up a creek without a paddle like I am.......also I would suggest others looking into dr. Timothy alexander to refrain from doing so I have found numerous people whom have diedthanks to him oone woman lost her legs due to a tummy tuck performed by dr. Alexander and one man died after facial surgery gone wrong......if you would like more info on my experience feel free to contact me directly at lachuchii85 (a) yahoo.com

I would take ImprovingtheUSMale 's suggetion. #1. CALL EVERY SINGLE DAY, several times a day #2. Pop up at his office and demand to speak with him! #3. Let him know that you will be writing bad reviwes on every single website (as ITUSM, had said). #4. Report his ass to the board of plastic surgery! Let him know that he may have screw over others , But he has ment his match and you will NOT BACK DOWN!!!............This kind of crap just pisses me off!!!!

the allegations you are making on your comments about that doctor are VERY serious, you are stating that "NUMEROUS people whom have died "thanks" to him, one woman lost her legs due to a tummy tuck performed by him" I checked his credentials on the Florida Department of Health website and there aren't any reports about any deaths or so due ("thanks") to the the doctor's fault and yet you are accusing him of so. We can read many thinks on line, anyone can write what ever they want on the internet, but if you want to be inform about a medical practitioner you need to get your information from reliable sources, like the Department of Health of the state where the physician practices. One thing is not being satisfied with your results and another thing is to make unfounded claims about a physician that are very serious.

Im sorry you didnt like my comments but there are other websites in which to review a doctor not just bt credential the woman whom lost her legs was for 1 diabetic whom should be a more careful surgery in which he performed a closure incorrectlyesulting in the loss of both her legs the gentleman whom died a day after facial surgery was presummably due to infection and in my opinion his office is very attentive before surgery but after both he and his staff could not care less
May 8, 2013
I couldnt agree more
May 8, 2013
I was living in FL then, about 8 or 9 years ago, I read the news, the patient that lost her legs was another doctor's patient, the gentleman whom died the day after surgery died of accidental overdose completely unrelated to his surgery, the news first implied it was the PS fault but several months later they got on hold of the report which showed that it was od. I am sorry if you felt I didn't like your comment, is not that at all, on the contrary, I think is good for patients to write comments based in facts of their own experiences, that is good and it should be encouraged.
May 8, 2013
What I had read did not imply that I will however take your word until I do some reasearch on what you say....however this does not change the fact that the office personnel are cordial until they recieve full payment...the doctors beside manners are atrocious....thus far I have seen and heard from more dissatisfied customers than satified including myself......as well as the fact that I am now disfigured with no hope of getting a revision .....I like many others gave away a large amount of money that in my case being a single mother of 4 is hard to save up.......and to top it off I can not get even an im sorry only a sorry you just have thick skin but no fat.....lies.......

Hey ladies! This is what I found: James K. "Jamie" McCormick died in his Fort Lauderdale apartment on Nov. 14, his 51st birthday, the day after facial surgery by Dr. Timothy Alexander, one of the Florida Center's five surgeons, state records show. Jacquelyn V. Roberts, a 45-year-old mother of three and a 13-year South Florida Sun-Sentinel employee, died on Jan. 10, about two days after a tummy tuck and liposuction performed there, family and friends said.

You did not check correctly

Dr. Timothy just did my BBL 3 weeks ago and it looks FABULOUS!

Why don't you post some pics? Otherwise, everyone is going to think you work in Dr. Timothy's office and are trying to counter a lot of bad press.
User Avatar
July 12, 2013
Obviously, you do work for Dr. Timothy's office since you never posted any pics. I am really sick and tired of all the doctor's employees who post false positive comments.
July 12, 2013
Thats strange because at 3 weeks I was sooooo swollen I looked like jabba the hut....not to mention the lumpiness until everything settles.....
July 13, 2013
I def will!
July 13, 2013
Oh I def will! I am NOT his employee. I LOVE my results!

I'm sorry to hear you didn't get the results you wanted and that the doctor isn't doing anything to fix it, what an [RS bleep]. Have you seen another surgeon to get a second opinion about not having any fat left? He could be just telling you that. I was told I didn't have any fat to transfer in fact the surgeon wanted to cut my cheeks and sew them up higher and I told him HELL NO. I got a second opinion and had the procedure done. Best wishes.
July 11, 2013
Thank you and at this point I dont havethe funds to go back to a decent doctor and speak face to face which I believe would be the best approach I live Iin nebraska and the plastic surgeons here are a joke....but I do plan on getting a second opinion
July 13, 2013
Sorry to hear that you had unsatisfactory results with Dr Alexander. I am now 2 months post op (still swollen) but have a VERY prominent butt (1100cc's) per cheek. I have not sat ddown n wrote a FULL REVIEW but I will once I take me progress photo. Look out for my update!

Trust me, I feel you honey... This doctor performed on me too. He did an "Ok" job on me. Its nothing spectacular, if so I wouldnt consider another BBL, but I am with another Doctor. I just dont believe this Doctor is meant to do the BBL procedure.
