Stay far far away....GET SOMEONE BOARD CERTIFIED...

Stay far far away....GET SOMEONE BOARD CERTIFIED WITH A MD BEFORE THEIR NAME. It seems all good until things go completely wrong. She is sweet and it draws you in, until she no longer wants to correct what she assured you she would. My initial surgery was blotched so she attempted to revise it, it made things completely worse. She also did fat transfer to my hips that was a total disaster, I have scars that had to be covered with tattoos. Its two plus years later and I finally had the courage to let a few other Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, her damage is going to cost me $10,000 to fix. My last interaction with the office was in 2014 when her response was she would no longer be helping me to remove the scars (which she made me believe could be a medication allergy, only to find out I was never allergic to that medication at all). I have so many pictures, I finally decided to share my mishap because its cosmetic I thought I didn't have leg to stand on, but what happened to me is nothing short of malpractice.

Wow. I hate you had this experience with her. I previously met with her office staff and was hesitant because I couldn't consulte with the doctor herself until the surgery and after doing my research I too found out that she is not a board certified plastic surgeon. I pray you finally get the results you want and do your research before selecting a doctor. I must admit she had the best rates but you pay for what you get and I'm not willing to sarfice quality for price. Thanks for posting this.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I recall asking someone 2014 if they had reservations about seeing her due to her not being board certified. The response was that she was board certified. That's the issue when it comes to plastic surgery. While I believe she is board certified in dermatology, in 2014 when I searched for her credentials as a board cert. plastic surgeon there were none. Not everyone is aware that anyone can buy the equipment. Your dentist can buy a machine and start performing BBLs, lipo, fat grafting, hair removal, whatever. Smh it's crazy to think she told you it was an allergic reaction. Again, thanks for sharing your experience.

Yes she is certified in dermatoloy not plastics..... she talks a good game.... her website has so much fluff....... No board certified plastic surgeon in Atlanta does all that... the website is a joke

PHOTOS ARE CURRENT
ayjaFebruary 10, 2016
My pictures are very current pictures, the 1st two pictures were post op pictures, pictures of my hips are May 2015 before. I decided to use tattoos as cover up scars that could not be removed after multiple professional evaluations. As for the pictures OF MY STOMACH ALL WERE TAKEN THE EXACT SAME DAY THIS POST WAS MADE. I never stated I was satisfied with the results, have you taken a look at the pictures? The results and the second ELECTIVE procedure you are referring to was done in an effort on your part in an attempt to correct/revise issues with my 1st surgery, which I trusted you to fix. After my second procedure was done I made all my follow up appointments none of which were missed. There are times when your schedule could not accommodate me and I saw your assistant Mrs. Lee instead. The last time I was in your office, when I explained my frustration with the results I was told by staff and yourself that the reason for my blotched results were because of weight gain. MY ISSUES NEVER PROGRESSED and I will reiterate that the pictures posted are very current pictures that's costing me over $13,000 to correct. I made multiple attempts to speak to you, left numerous messages with no return calls. After several consults from Board Certified Plastic surgeons, the consensus by all was whoever did this needs to be reported to the Board for review. The skin is so badly damaged with excessive scar tissue which the only thing is separating my abdominal muscles from skin is scarring, I have it all in writing everything that went wrong with my procedure.
What you may find interesting is that the corrective procedure that I have to do has liposuction involved, I told them I have an allergic reaction to tumescent lidocaine just like you told me. So imagine my surprise that a skin test was done and SHOWED NO SIGNS OF AN ALLERGIC REACTION.
I Journaled using email; every visit, every appointment, and every conversation I had with you and your staff. My follow up appointments were never missed, perhaps at times rescheduled. You will be glad to know I am a trauma ICU nurse and my kids are thriving.

She did your first procedure? I guess u were given the option not to have anesthesia? She offered me smart lipo with transplant of fat to buttocks. The more i research smart lipo wasnt advised to use to transfer fat. Thank u so much. She doesn't have many reviews on here so again thanks so much. Keep us updated. Im sorry your going thru this

Yes she did... and after my stomach being a mess she attempted to fix it and did a poor job on that too... my isse with her is she does not hold herself accountable... she blames the patients... I have my surgery in a few weeks, I will post pics !

Is a different dr going to do it hopefully?

I commented on your other post, I just saw this one. I’m happy for you that you’re getting your revisions. Did you ever get your money back? xo

Oh my god, it’s THAT Dr Boutté, the one I just saw on the news a couple of days ago. She is getting sued by MULTIPLE patients for malpractice and negligence. Dr Boutté reportedly posted videos on her own website of herself singing and dancing in the OR DURING surgery, sometimes with a patient’s naked body in view. One patient had brain damage under Dr Boutté’s care. Another says she woke up after surgery in a strange hotel room she does not believe she checked herself in to. There are many more allegations.
Ayja, best of luck on your corrective procedure and recovery. It must be very difficult to trust a surgeon again. I hope all of this nightmare is behind you soon.

I finally got my stomach fixed a month ago... I was able to do it at the hospital where I work. I was able to choose my entire team. I am loving my results!

These are really good sites to find out if someone is board certified.
Please stay far far away!
