I am devastated & want to cry every time I see my stomach

ORIGINAL POST

Regrets

$10,000
I underwent surgery for a Brazilian Butt Lift with liposuction on my stomach July 2021. I am pleased with the butt lift, however, Dr. Nuveen destroyed my previously smooth stomach.
My requests for follow up have gone unanswered. After seeing the nurse, who had no recommendations to improve my outcomes, I asked to meet with Dr. Nuveen. She indicated he would call me. He did not & the post operative care that was included in my $14,000 payment apparently doesn’t cover poor outcomes.
Consultations with other providers indicate my results are due to poor technique.
I am devastated & want to cry every time I see my stomach.
Attached are pictures of my stomach 6 months prior to the surgery & today

Omg I hope they can do something for it. I'm so sorry this happened to oh
Sir just retire already JFC... You've botched so many people already x_x (Google his name - not just on RealSelf)
Thank you very much for responding. Your office has not been helpful in scheduling me when you are in. The nurses always tell me they will speak with you & call me back.
I will stop in this week with a screen shot of your response & have them schedule me an appointment with you. I can appreciate the disconnect in the communication to you.
If you could provide me your name and your telephone number to 405-550-7522 (my cell phone) will immediately have you scheduled at your convenience. Thanks for giving me the chance to help you out of this situtation.
Bet he'll call you now. ^^. Yikes.
WOW. $14,000 for a botched stomach I am so upset for you!!! Unacceptable.
That is a typo. It was abt $10,000
I have not a clue what they did to your stomach. I wish I had some answers for you. Maybe as time goes on they can go in and vaser and smooth out
