Went to Miami to get a tummy tuck and liposuction...

Went to Miami to get a tummy tuck and liposuction @ Seduction by Jardan's Cosmetics. Was told i needed to lose 5lbs before i got there duw to my BMI, so i lost 10. I paid to stay in the recovery home which was a nightmare. My surgeon told me he couldnt make my stomach flat ,and that this wasnt a weight loss surgery but with exercise and diet i would have a head start. 1 day post op ,he told me he removed about 20lbs of fat, and he removed the suture tape from my TT scar kinda admiring his work. I felt it looked hideous on one side,but thought maybe it would look better once the swelling went down. Ibsay hideous because the scar & stitching wasnt straight. The left side looked like he cut too much skin and tried to gather it to make it fit,so theres a fold there. 1 week post op my stitches came open and began to leak. 10 days post op ,i had to remove my drains since i'd come home to my own state. See he told me i could have my pcp remove ,or a walk in clinic remove them but what i didn't know is plastic surgeons & doctors dont want to get involved with someone elses patient. So i'd been left to treat myself. I went to the Emergency room and because I answered a survey with negative remarks, i got someones attention. But as i previously stated, im 3 weeks post op and i have a hole in me. I have thread stitches visible inside of me, they dont appear to be the desolvable kind, but we'll see. Oh and where my drains were,sharp pieces poking from it that look like thread.
Lets talk about the $1444 i was charged for the recovery home,where i was supposed to be helped during my recovery the 7 days i was there. No one spoke english, not even my driver. So no help could be given or communicated. The lady of the house did try a few times,and spanish speaking patients would try and translate. Even the nurses at the clinic barely spoke english so when id go in to get bandages cleaned ,the receptionist or other staff members would have to come in while i was undressed to gawk and translate.
Back to the home, we were promised 3 meals a day. Eggs & fresh fruit for breakfast, chicken,steak or fish for lunch or dinner with rice ,beans , or salad as sides.. every single day.. no green veggies. And as u know constipation is a factor when taking pain meds. So eating protiens and 2 starches was very hard on the system.
I know i sound very disgruntled, but i am walking around with a belly that i paid 6500 to have removed ,plus it has a hole in it and its leaking fluid. One of my roommates from the recovery home has been hospitalized 3 times with infection from her procedure. I honestly want my money back and the rest of the fat liposuctioned from my belly and my wound fixed.
So anyone thinking of going to Miami Jardan's Cosmetics please do your research, be cautious. Make sure that the instruments have been autoclaved / sterilalized before they sedate you. Do a walk through of the facility before you sign any paperwork. Do not allow them to charge your card ahead lf time. Because they did this to me without my permission,that should have been my first sign. Just be aware!!

He was down to earth as far as conversation during the 5 minute consult before surgery. I watched his YouTube video. However, after surgery once complications occured idk if i really spoke to him. It was through text on a member of his staffs phone.
