Re-adding Before pics – Healing well from revision surgery
On a happier note, I am 2 weeks post my revision op. I am incredibly happy with the outcome so far. I will write a more detailed review when I'm further along and have the energy to do so. But my experience thus far has been terrific, and by the way I am looking right now and how well I am recovering, I am anticipating a very satisfying result. I remain exceedingly positive. I can't speak highly enough of Dr Rosique and his team, they have been exceptional in every way. They have looked after me so well and I feel a deep gratitude for the care and attention they have given me.
I have just less than a week left to recover here in Brazil until I fly home.
Revision Liposuction and Fat Grafting for Botched Knee to Ankle Lipo
Sucking out almost 2 litres of fat from legs that weren't big to begin with, left me with loose skin from my knees to my ankles. Particularly my knees and the back length of my legs where the skin is now wavy, not taut like it once was. There are significant dents on the inside of my calves where little fat remains to cover the movement of my muscles, particularly noticeable and hideous on my right side. The outer side of my left calf muscle was stripped of fat so that you can see defined areas of the muscle, which looks completely unnatural and weird. As if that wasn't enough, there still remains pockets of fat on both ankles, I can literally see where the cannula stopped and didn't reach all of the fat on the lower inside of my ankles. Seriously, unbelievable.
I spent one whole year after my surgery wearing compression stockings 24/7 in the hopes that I was doing everything I could to affect the best possible outcome – and also because I just couldn't look at my legs without crying. After undergoing therapy, I got to the point where I could finally look in the mirror without bursting into tears. I then worked up the nerve to contemplate revision surgery and that led me here.
Finding reviews on Realself from ladies who'd had successful outcomes with their own revision leg lipo performed by Dr Rosique, spurred me to get in contact. After two consultations, talking thorough all my issues and concerns, as well as being fortunate enough to be in contact with some of his former patients and benefit firsthand from their insights and experiences, I feel very confident that Dr Rosique can help fix my legs.
My surgery is scheduled for 24 August and I am flying to Brazil with my partner who will care for me. I will spend 3 short weeks recovering there before making the horrendous trip home to Australia.
Provider Review
Dr Rosique is not just the best doctor I've ever had the pleasure to deal with, he is also one of the most incredible people I've ever met. I have never felt so comfortable and looked after by a medical professional as I did in his care. He spent many hours talking through every aspect of my surgery with me, listening to my concerns and answering all of my questions. Often he would follow up a question or conversation we'd had previously with a further explanation or insight because he'd been ruminating on it in my absence. He is truly one of the most genuine, empathetic and curious people I have I met. He takes a genuine interest in his patients and it shows (and is appreciated). His warmth and professionalism make you feel instantly at ease, and his skill as a surgeon exceeded my expectations. You are surely in safe and competent hands if choose Dr Rosique for your surgeon.
