LIPOSUCTION stomach, back, waist, fatt undernath butt and armpit fat.

$9,500
Hello my name is Asia and I would like to tell you all my experience with Dr. Hughes.
April 27, 2016 I drove down to LA to get Lipo done on the 29th of April. When I arrived in LA I spoke with Dr. Hughes and met some of his staff before the procedure. He seem so confident and caring at that moment. The morning of my procedure I was nervous and scared thinking if I should go threw with it or not & I did long story short .. After my procedure I was in so much pain my stomach was flat and I really couldn't tell about the other parts I got fat tooken out of because I was swollen. For the first TWO WEEKS my stomach was flat, after that I started to look how I first looked when I walked into his office. I emailed Dr.Hughes and told him and he said "your still swollen, you have to wait 6 months". He also told me I can start working out after my 6 weeks is up wearing my garment so that's exactly what I did. (I wore the garment for two extra weeks just to be on the safe side so 8 weeks) I have a trainer to vouch for me. STILL NO results. Since I left Dr. Hughes office I never received a phone call from him nor anyone from his staff asking how was I doing. Dr. Hughes never asked me for pics like he said. I emailed Dr.Hughes and told him how I felted and basically to me, all he wanted was just the money because I didn't feel like he gave a [RS bleep] how my results came out. He responded back saying "It's not just about the money, you see I responded back blah blah blah" As time went by I started to send Dr Hughes pics mind you he never asked for any pics. I waited a little longer just to see if I would see some type of results, nope nothing! September 4, 2016 I sent Dr. Hughes an email with more photos did I get a reply? No!! But yet I'm receiving emails saying he's replying to questions on REALSELF. I am beyond pissed because I have seen other girls who's body is banging and it took them 3/4 months. I have a friend who got Lipo and her body is NICE. The Dr. she went to staff checked on her and made sure she was good. When I look at my body all I can do is cry because I wasted 9500 dollars plus all my travel expenses. All the pain and money I spent going down there was just a total waste.

I would not go back to Dr. Hughes nor would I recommend anyone to go to him. From my experience I basically gave him 9500$ for free.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you find support in the community. 

I totally understand how you feel! It's very disturbing that there are no laws that protect the patient! My plastic surgeon did the same thing. Botched me and didn't care! But he's all over RealSelf talking about how he cares about his patients, calls and does aftercare
Who was your doctor?
Dr. Sozer from El Paso Texas. he ruined my body.

Since I left Dr. Hughes office I never received a phone call from him or no one from his staff asking how was I doing smh Dr. Hughes never asked me for pics like he said. I emailed Dr.Hughes and told him how I felted and basically to me all he wanted was just the money cus I didn't feel like he gave a [RS bleep] how my body came out. He responded back basically saying "it not just the money, you see I responded back blah blah blah" As time went by I started to send Dr Hughes pics mind you he never asked. So I went more months to see results nope nothing September 4, 2016 I sent Dr. Hughes an email with more photos did I get a reply? No!! But yet I'm receiving emails saying he's replying to questions on REALSELF. I am by far pissed because I have seen other girls who's body is banging and it took them 3/4 months. I have a friend who got Lipo and her body is NICE. The Dr. she went to staff checked on her and made sure she was good. When I look at my body all I can do is cry because I wasted 9500 dollars. Basically just gave it away. All the pain and money I spent going down there was just a total waste. I should have just went to DR MIAMI like I planned the first time.
