Wanted a Lil Lipo to Balance out my Sides of Outter Thighs and Banana Roll Area
gem202July 3, 2014
I now have dug in areas under my buttocks. Not sure what female wants that or has that .. but ok... So now to fix it I have to have fat taken from other places, which that Drs are not even sure I have enough to get off other places to fix it. I have to have off 3 weeks after at least. You cant sit for 3 weeks at all after fat transfer or you will kill the cells that I dont have enough of now anyway. I run risk of other lipo messes up touching these areas to fix the area that was dug in and way too much taken out of. So instead of balancing out and doing that tiny area that needed done. I now have a major problem. Blows my mind. Dr visits... flew across country even to get professional opinions. I wanted it fixed in the first place because I didnt like it and my job is one that that is noticeable... now he created lines under my butt and if you hinge at the hips at all... you now see this dug in area the size of an apple. Feels like to me muscle was damaged as well its clear now to muscle and if I follow the muscle down my medial glut to the hamstring... I can only follow it on the the one side... the other has been messed up and the size of it destroyed. Im a personal trainer.. I know muscles and I know what working out and leg work does.. I know the muscle is way different now and def. diff from one side to the other. The good side it feels like a thumb side.. the other... I cant even follow it. He did under my arms too.. one is still way diff than the other. I visited a surgeons office yesterday and he said well he didnt run the cannula up and down like the contour, he ran it from breast area to the back. Thats why my skin now lays like a layer cake and not running down like that skin usually is. All the hype of smart and heat assisted lipo is very iffy, it destroys all the tissue around and these ppl have no idea what they are taking out or not. BEWARE!!!! This too could change your life forever...
and yes.. I put 1,000,000 because to me ... it wouldnt be worth a million to have it done again if I knew what I know now..

Axillary Disaster
gem202May 23, 2014
Had Axillary done to help that lil buldge we women hate. The pics will speak for themself. Lipo on lower half as well, just a lil on outter thighs. Now have a crater in my upper hamstring area and a ledge pocket worse than before. The under arms. I can't even begin to go into that mess. They were NOT like this before. I was never ashamed of them, just thought they could be leased with a lil

You want to get mad a someone. Get mad at yourself. The doctor has no control over your body's ability to contract the skin after lipo. If there is still fat there. That's one thing. That can be removed. It it's loose skin. That's your fault or your body's fault. Not the doctors. You are the one that grew the fat in the first place. Not the doctor. You are the one that your body's skin didn't contract. So of course, blame someone else. Whose fault could it be? How do you propose the doctor make your skin contract?

Oh my. Listen to you. Lol So uneducated. Yawn. Yawn. See from what I understand Dr's are educated in this and the good ones will know exactly how your body will react. Look it up..they are taught about skin and elasticity to know. Seriously that's why they go to school for years :) Enjoy your weekend. Perhaps get a lil workout in, I hear it's good for the mood. I don't have a lot of body fat, hormones cause it under the arms and breast tissue.... lover boy.. yes I have those. Look up celebs on the red carpet that are thin n see if u see the skin under arms in dresses. Yea they have it too..I remember a particular one... n she played one hell of a hot cat women. Hehe. Ur prob fat and reflecting ur pain on others. Sad for you.

The Dr as a professional trained in this KNEW by looking and touching the are to lipo if she was a good candidate or not he should of told her that some % of the skin would not retract and probably that she was better off not doing it this is why he studied to be a plastic surgeon so IT IS HIS FAULT and another thing you come off very arrogant and frustrated and this is a place to help each other and share experiences you need to tone it down and be more humble smh

I'm thinking that a qualified doctor who knows what he is doing should be able to see that the skin is too loose in the bra fat area and that Lipo will not be the answer. Yes, everyone is different but I think too many doctors are saying yes instead of really taking a close look by touching and feeling the area to see how well the skin will retract. Doctors DO need to take responsibility for this and not just say that it's the luck of the draw. At least warn the patient that they are taking a chance that they will have loose skin.

Totally agree. Still not sure what ill be doing with this situation. More time needs to be taken. If thousands are made..i think an hour to two pre op 4 in surgery and an hour post doesnt seem to much to ask...7 hours and 11 000 total in surgery....yes was not jusr his fee.. but comon.. im sure he walked with 5000 of it... at least....Whats an extra hour to tell a patient..take the time and get a good review with more business later vs the mess that will be told i have to deal with. Need to make a lot to pay all the insurances for sloppy jobs

Humble? Idk i think wrecked from head to thigh is a pretty humbling experience..but if youd like to switch places and see how youd react and feel id love to give u this guys number. Im sure he could redo what he did to me.... cant judge others if u arent there. I dont get on ppls pages on here and tell them how to feell or react..im not them.. i dont know how they feel.

Oh this is way old ...ur talking to michael lol. I wrote to realself about him. He is taken care of. Lol

Funny i will never forget when i asked about this area he showed me a pic of a lady.. arms down...no bra.. what was that going to show me. Right then i just laughed to myself and said screw this.... i wont be back here... they werent even listening to my concerns. Then doing stuff like that, like im stupid and that was answering my question. Was a lot of stuff like that. One of my incisions in banana roll area looked bad. I had 4 lid incisions, 4 on leg and 2 under arms. This one looked a lot worse. I asked about it. He made some rude comment next visit and laughed to his nurse... like oh that bad incisions looks ok now. Yea cuz i put antibacterial oint. On it and keep the foam off of it directly. Almost 6 months later you still see that one. The only one you still see. Now why act like that. Im a 46 yr old women...i know when something looks like its not healing well. My god i raised 2 kids plus myself.. lol. Just crap that did NOT have to be part of this mess too.

I wonder about some ppl on here are they on here to help or are they miserable and want to just look at women who post pics of themselves half naked or fully. Hmmmm makes one wonder. Time for putting their negative spin on other ppls bad times. Can only mean lonely and no life on a holiday weekend... sad for them : /

Hi Gem, I am so sorry you had such a bad experience with your lipo. This is definitely your doctor's poor jug dement. He took to much fat out. You post really helped me because I just recently had my axillary done and I don't see much of a difference and even was thinking of getting more fat removed. After your post I will not. Thanks again and I hope you are able to find another PS that can revise your procedure. GL
June 13, 2014
Good im glad it helped u decide. My biggest problem now is the difference between the two sides. One is more empty and the other seems to have more..and since its not balanced it looks odd. Im waiting another month to evaluate what needs taken out to make them match before skin is removed

Thank you Sun, thst is how I see it when I look at it, one side is really bad then the other is less and has this weird skin fold whole way back. Not normal looking at all. I wor so hard at the gym and now to have this seems like quite a punch in the stomach. Course they tell you oh its swollen, oh it takes time. Well ain't no amount if time going to make those folds go away nor make that skin go back up into my arm pit. I think wrapping 7 weeks should be ample time. I was super bruised. Now these surgeries aren't my first rodeo....i had things done in the past, so I know what bruising can be like. This actually scared me pretty good. It was black purple. So he really really went at it. Which I don't understand, because he told me he couldn't do flank area because it would leave skin......hmm...yet waa ok to go in that area only what 12 inches away n go at it. Makes no sense to me. I'd think this area would be much worse than a back to mess up because of its contour. Skin has to go up in the arm pitt. I saw a video on it or maybe a pic with text..I forget and it said how needs to be minimal and carefully done. Well if course now I'm afraid if what will be in my future as far as breast tissue. It's scary...I can hardly think if he did all that....what will come my way in the future with mammograms and the like.... ugh its just literally sickening. I so agree with what you that it's sad we can trust them to do the right thing. If it's not a good idea, say...I'd a been back if all went well in the future
...now I have a flight to LA to plan for an eye vision specislist and looking into other things to fix the lipo area. I can't tell you how many hours totalled up to days..Prob a week I have spent on all this. It has caused some tension with my kids too obviously. My mom is worried about it all...it's just so unfair for ppl to play...hmm idk God if you will..to act like they can do anything when clearly they don't know what they are doing. Blah

That's because it's all about $$ for them. And there are no laws to restrict their behavior. AND many use reputation protection services to try and cover up bad reviews online. It's hard for people to find the correct information. I hope you have good pictures and maybe consult a lawyer. Also these lipo procedures are wildly promoted on beauty websites, it's crazy, so the general population thinks it's fine to get it done.
May 21, 2014
ugh and I think probably a lot of the pics are general used pics they all use. Ugh I heard about this protection review thing... hmmm thats very sad for us... Ugh now Im worried
