Botched Lipo Nightmare: Uneven Results and Painful Recovery!

I've waited some time to write this and hope I save someone from making the biggest mistake. I went to Dr. Simon interested in stomach lipo (I've always had a tiny pooch) and he said i was a candidate. Since I was going under, I decided to also do my inner thighs since they've always rubbed when I walked.

I had surgery in Sept 2022 and after swelling went down my stomach was uneven and my thighs still rubbed. At my 6 month follow-up he told me I should've had a tummy tuck, NOT at my consultation AFTER he did my lipo!!! I was told to get more massages. When that didn't work he said he would do a touch-up ($500). They used local anesthesia for the touch-up and I cried, shook and clawed the chair as I felt EVERYTHING! The worst pain!!! This time he flattened my stomach and took too much fat out of my thighs. One thigh had a roll afterwards so I had a 3rd surgery where he had to inject fat back into my thigh. I spent more money and time getting massages after this surgery too. Fast forward, my stomach and thighs are deformed. My left thigh has a small crease and a dark line which are noticeable. My legs used to be my favorite feature and now I have to hide my thighs. My stomach is flat when I'm standing but I have all these stomach rolls when I sit plus there's an indentation where I assume he entered my stomach. I waited my whole life to afford this, get over the fear and to finally get the body I want. Living in Florida I'm always in bathing suits and workout clothes and why I wanted this surgery. Now I'm worse than I was before. He overcharged me from the start but I was willing to pay for the results I expected to get. Instead I spent even more between extra massages and the $500 fee for the 1st touch-up. I got them to waive the 3rd surgery not that it matters. He told me I could do a tummy tuck to fix his mess. What a joke...more money to ruin me more? I WILL NEVER GO BACK! I regret going here and cry every day looking at and feeling the damage he's caused. Just driving or sitting I feel skin rolls touching which I never had and now have to save up in order to have another (4th) surgery to fix his mess (another $12k!!!). DO NOT GO HERE!
