Is a Consultation Possible? - Los Angeles

I had a BBL a little over a year ago. Before the procedure, I was an apple shape with no curves and no self-esteem. I never wanted a Kim K. butt. I just wanted to have some shape & some projection. Recovery was painful for me. I wasn't up and walking around easily after a few days like other girls here. It was hard for me to even get out of bed. I also had a hard time eating because I justdidn't feel good. It did get better, after a while. About 5 weeks after, I developed a seroma. No big deal. The doctor drained it in one visit and that was it. I have a bit of loose skin on my stomach from being overweight but no ripples or dents from liposuction. I also have projection for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, it looks kind of flat from the back and I wish I could've retained one more inch but I am willing to hit the gym to try and grow & shape my butt. The biggest complication I've had is fat necrosis. About 7 months ago, the hard lumps in my hips were red and painful. It eventually went away and I asked my doctor if it would ruin the contour of my body. He said no. Sadly, that was not the case. It isn't too bad but there's definitely dips in my hips. I lost some roundness. Now, I had a few lumps of fat necrosis in my actual butt cheeks - yes, both - and they are painful and one of the lumps is red on the outside. The ones on my hips still hurt. I am really, really depressed about this. I've read that surgical removal may be required if they cause pain and that an additional BBL may be necessary to fill in any dents that removal may leave behind. I am worried I will get indentations anyway (I already have one on the right cheek but I'm not sure if it was there before or not.) I don't have the money on hand for removal/a revision, at least not right now. So I guess I'm stuck with this pain. I guess it could be worse... but this just sucks. I took such good care while healing. I still sit majority of the time with my pillow and still sleep on my stomach. I wore my compression garment religiously. I just don't understand why I have all these necrosis lumps and all this soreness. My doctor told me 1 in 200 patients get fat necrosis. Lucky me, I'm that 1. At first, this surgery gave me a lot of confidence. I still feel much more comfortable... I want to say it's worth it but these lumps, indentations and this pain is making me wonder if it was. I'm so depressed about this. I figured I'd share it here. It's lonely to go through alone. I wish you all better luck.

I called Hazani's office in May. Scheduled a consultation for June 13th. They called me this week and said I needed to reschedule because the doctor wouldn't be available. Ok. About 45 mins later, they called again. I couldn't answer at the moment but I ended up talking to them yesterday and they tell me they can't do consultations right now & I'll be put on a waiting list until around August. The front desk people were very nice. But why schedule a consult you can't keep? Why reschedule only to break the appointment twice? Is this normal for them? I'm putting off a lot of plans to make time for this surgery that seems will never happen. I'm very disappointed and am wondering if I should go elsewhere. Has this happened to anyone else?
