Hi I am a 24 year old female, with 42HH size breast. I am looking to have a breast reduction but I am not sure about what Plastic Surgeon I should go to. I don't know anyone personally who has had the surgery. When I ask people if they do everyone says yes but can never tell me what doctor they went to. I went to a consultation yesterday the PS was Dr. O. A. Afolabi-Brown. Has anyone had a breast reduction done by him or know anyone who has? I need help and advice fast. an someone please let me know anything. Oh yeah its important that I find a great surgeon soon. I am trying to have this surgery within the next 3 months because I have already dropped my classes at school. I CANNOT drop them for the next semester as well. Thanks for reading.... Now PLEASE feel free to comment or message me.

Before I had my surgery with Dr. Brown I was excited because I heard good things. I had one warning from a family member advising me not to go to him because of negative things she heard from others. I decided to go with him because he was the only surgeon who could get me in while I had a break from school and work, I very much so regret this. I chose convenience over my safety. After my surgery, I had many problems that he brushed off, I had an infection for months due to his negligence, I later realized this was a way for him to make more money (he wanted to perform another surgery). I could go on for days but basically my end results were two uneven breast,  uneven areolas, Hideous scars and deep depression. On my follow up appointments I encountered other women who were experiencing the same thing. Whomever may be reading this please do not take a risk with your body by going to this doctor. He is very unprofessional and is only interested in cutting! I gave a one star rating because I had to id I could I would give this doctor a negative 10 star rating.

Where are the before and after pictures? That prove what you are saying is true?

Sorry for your outcome. I have done Breast Reductions since the 90's. I am not sure of your situation. There can always be complication. Saying I want to make extra money shows your assessment is not correct. That is not me. Every now and then there may be a need for a touch up for some patients, your insurance should take care of that, not you. Every patient's Breast tissues are not the same. It is unfortunate that you did not get the result that is satisfactory to you.
