Mutilated
Massive scaring - didn't leave enough skin to properly close. Huge, Frankenstein zipper like stitches with puckered skin in between each. Large pouch under arm, open holes left on my chest. White scar rings around my nipples with radiating white stitching scars - VERY SEXY (not). When I complained, he said it was my fault because I was laying 'wrong' on the operating table. WHAT?!

so sorry that is awful hope there is some come back for you against the surgeon my experience was the total opposite
January 30, 2015
There are a total of 14 women who have posted about this person in the last 2.5 years, and I'm glad that you had a positive experience - I'm going to have to suffer thru at least 2 corrective surgeries.
January 31, 2015
I feel so sad for you. I hope you can get fixed up. This person should not be allowed to do this to anyone else.
January 31, 2015
Thank you! I'm trying to find someone who can 'fix' this - it'll take at least 2 more surgeries :(
February 7, 2015
I'm so sorry this happened to you. You must proceed with a law suit immedietly before having your next surgeries. I hope all goes well. Good luck.

Thank you Drake - I am in the middle of a lawsuit right now, it'll be interesting to see how it turns out. Patt

Best of Luck to you Patt.
February 11, 2015
Thank you again Drake ~ They've tried to have the case dismissed three times, they lost each time - the last trial will be on the 23rd of February - and if I win, they will appeal (expected). Fingers crossed!

One of the ladies on Real Self is going on the PS surgery "Botched"..I have never seen it, so I am not recommending, just a thought..her problem was with her abdominoplasty..I don't think her breasts were involved..
February 13, 2015
Hey Alexie - I don't know what that is, would you please explain? Thank you! (",)
March 1, 2015
Just saw this....abdominoplasty is repairing the under lying muscles and removing a lot of loose skin on the stomach...I think she had her breasts done but not sure if it was the same surgeon etc Her stomach was a mess, infected, big wound, etc etc If I can find her postings I'll give you her Reall Self name...

"Botched" is a tv show...didn't get that in...sorry
February 13, 2015
No kidding - I'll google it and see what I can find - Thanks!

Darling, I am so sorry for what happened to you. I hope that you fight this and that you find good, skillful surgeons that you trust to make this better for you. And I hope that in the meantime you find some peace for yourself and that you realize that you are beautiful and that you are more than just your breasts. I don't say that to minimize your (completely legitimate!) anger and sadness, but just to hopefully help you heal your body AND your soul. Sending peace and love to you...

Thank you SO much, what a sweet message and it does help.

You can sue him for malpraxis
February 6, 2015
Hey Lola - I am, I'm suing for malpractice myself in small claims court, and it's an uphill battle. There have been 4 hearings so far, the last and final is the 23rd of Feb 2015. I'll post and let everyone know what happened.
March 1, 2015
Did he explain what happened? I am so sorry. I have been left with a mess also. I am looking into a DIEP Flap which what is done in the case of Mastectomy. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.
March 2, 2015
No. He won't acknowledge, there's a problem . but said use silicon strips. I did, and several hundred dollars and 4 months later to no avail. No one wants to take him own legally he's the chief PS in my county. my surgery was covered by insurance due to back pain. So I've been told to be grateful and shut up (pretty much)Thank You for your good wishes. Just wanted you to know your not alone. All the best to you and I'll keep you in my prayers.
March 2, 2015
WHAT!!! Just because it was covered by insurance does not mean you do not deserve the best. You deserve more. This is for pain control. This is to make your life better. This is medically needed. It is seems that him being chief PS he should be accountable for his actions. You need to file a complaint with the insurance also call the medical board and see if you can file a complaint with them.

God that's awful .did you smoke .if not that's just wrong. Feel for you .xx

I am so sorry this happened to you. I pray things will look better when you heal. God Bless
February 7, 2015
Thank you - I need all the prayers I can get. These pictures are of my healed breasts - they won't get better without 2 - 3 more surgical procedures. :(
February 14, 2015
I'm sorry for you too ! I agree with another comment that your beauty is more than your breast and I hope you can find peace with yourself even if it's difficult. Will you be pursuing a lawsuit ?
February 16, 2015
Thank you - you are SO right, and if they didn't hurt so much.....it's be a different story. Right now, my right breast is hard swollen - again. Since June of 14, I've been trying to get my case heard. I did it myself - and I finally have a trial date on the 23rd of this month. The exact pictures you see here, amongst others, are my evidence. Fingers crossed!
February 16, 2015
I'm glad you have a court date , That's not easy to do ! My understanding about Plastic Surgery is that the patient accepts all responsibility unless somehow the PS falsified his credentials , But if you still can pursue a case despite this then that's amazing and I hope someone can help you legally and a kind caring Qualified PS helps you out of the kindness of his heart ! You deserve a kind helping hand ! It's very overdue and I pray a qualified surgeon steps up and offers you a helping hand !! NO ONE should face this !! Along with your physical pain !! May you have the needed strength and courage !! Hugs Hugs Hugs !!
