I was told I needed a revision for the tummy tuck that was done in 2014 by Dr Morales. Really was hoping it would turn out ok as I was told it would fix the original tummy tuck please see my other review for mommy makeover. After the original surgery I had some deformation with an infection. I also had more skin one side that produced a wrinkle at the end the inscion on that side also went downward let say I knew from the first month of the original surgery back in 2014 that something went wrong. I trusted Dr Moraels to fix it as he said he could for a fee. This time around I knew that some thing was off as I had a hump on my hip that I expressed first week after the revision. Well it's gotten worse now there is a big dent to go with it. I let the office know of the issue include pictures 5/12/2014 have not heard back from the doctor or the office as of yet.

Thats pretty crappy service to not reply to your issues. If they don't stand by their procedures then shouldn't be practicing! Good luck with your revision

I saw you pic looks good!! I knew as soon as the garnet was off...... i need you doctor! The lipo makes your curves perfect

hi, maybe it is worth looking into liposuction on that bumpy bit at the side to flatten it off? the tuck itself is great but they're usually teamed up with liposuction on the flanks x

Deformity looks worse as time continues to pass :(

Not looking so good deformation looks worse seems like repeat of the first round same hip botched twice :( what really makes it worse is I paid for him to do this I should of gotten a second option after he said revision at a additional cost. However I trusted him.....he said he would fix it and tighten everything up. doctor has not contacted me or his office after I made them aware of this issue not even an explanation as to why this may have happened or if there is anything i could do to help the issue.

Uneven still

Not sure but it seems like I can pinch more skin on botched hip..... Same issue form original tummy tuck that may explain why I have a dent and a hump and the wrinkle is still there.......not sure if this is what is causing the issue just a guess I'm not a doctor. I just disappointed to go through another recovery to still see the same issue but worse
