How long after your surgery did that happen when you were doing push ups. I've always wondered if I should give up push ups, pull ups and burpies. Where the implants placed under the muscle? I'm sorry to hear about the troubles you've gone through, but I think they do look better than your pre surgery breasts.

So very sorry you are having to go though all of this...I so understand as I am in the middle of it too...My complete breast lift and implant was a waste of time and ruined my natural breast pocket, so now everything must be removed and the pocket rebuilt and left to heal for 6 months. It took finding a new and much better surgeon to find the answers I was looking for. Hope you can do the same thing...Don't you wish there was a money back guarantee...these are very costly lessons we are learning...

AZDee you are so right. It's not like we have money trees in our back yard. I am very sorry you are having these problems. Good luck with your upcoming surgery.

Oh no.. Just read your story and I'm in shock. I was going to call him for a consult and need the same procedure as you. I almost have the same boobies but symmetrical and saggy. Now I'm going to have to reevaluate!!! I hope it gets corrected with any revisions you have!!

Hi vald28, my original surgery was December 22, 2013. Immediately after surgery I knew something was not right with the left breast. Each post op appointment I expressed my concern that it didn't look right. His response was your breast need time to heal. Every time I would bring the issue up he would be very condescending & arrogant. It was always, I tell you over & over that they will take time to drop & fluff, I don't know what else you want me to tell you. I would leave in tears. Finally after writing him and explaining how unhappy I was, he finally agreed to the second surgery in February 2014. The first 2 mths the left breast looked good. He told me I could exercise without restrictions. I was doing a push up and had pain on my left side. When I stood up I noticed that they breast had "dropped", I immediately emailed him pictures and expressed my concern. His reply that everything looked normal and it hadn't dropped. Everyday I look at it and I know something is wrong. I hate to call his office because I feel like he doesn't want to deal with as well as is staff. I have discomfort on the left side and rippling all over. I finally got the courage 1 mth ago to call and make an appointment. His receptionist said, "did you want to email him with photos or see him". I said I would like to see him, " her response was, let me check with the dr and I will call you back". Guess what?? She never called back!!! I posted a question with photos on this website asking the drs what they thought was wrong with my breast, they all said I needed a revision!!! 2 weeks ago I called again to make an appointment, I was told the first opening was 3 weeks away. I said to the receptionist that I find it had to believe I would have to wait that long to be seen. I told her thank you but maybe I would go get a second opinion and hung up. I later got an email from the dr saying that I threatened him and his staff?!?!?! Seriously????? They had no problem taking almost $9,000 from me. I feel his bedside manner is horrible. I feel he is not compassionate or accommodating to his clients once he gets his money. Sorry to keep rambling, I am so frustrated.

Wow. Well dr sorokin obviously doesn't know how to fix it or else he would and won't admit it. I'm no surgeon but I can tell it's not right. It's probably best to find another dr. One skilled in fixing other drs messes. How frustrating!! I'm sorry and I hope things get better for u real soon. Maybe go on a couple consults and see what they're opinion is :)
July 14, 2014
Keep us posted if you get it fixed. I'm so surprised bc he has so many rave reviews. It seems like u can't trust anyone! Feel better soon!!

That is the part that us stumping me. I did my research. I can't afford to put out anymore money. I feel like I was taken advantage of. Of course now it feels like he just doesn't want anything to do with me.

I think if I would have know how my breast were going to turn out after 2 surgeries, I wouldn't have done it. My left breast looked much better after the second surgery, but that only lasted 2 mths. I was doing a push up and felt pain in my left breast. When I checked it out in the mirror, my implant had moved or dropped. I was able to see where my natural breast tissue ended and the continued. (If that makes sense) Also, when I flex my muscle you can see the same thing as well as ripples extending from the center of my chest out toward the implant.

I don't know what to do at this point. My Dr said it is normal. It doesn't feel normal to me.

Personally, I have had three breastbaugmentations by the same surgeon in Canada who is wonderful. Just as time went by wanted to switch some things. But what your surgeon did is NOT normal. He does not seem to know what he is doing. I am not trying to sound harsh or be rude I am just being honest. I know what u mean when u say that u didn't want perfection but u atleast wished for an IMPROVEMENT. I do not believe that is what u got. I would try and see what can be done as far as getting your money back or suing so u can go to a different qualified surgeon. Might seem like a hassle but trust me from experience it is something that will drive u crazy and bother u everyday. It's worth it to get it fixed by someone compitant either by ur own financial means or by forcing and demanding a refund from your surgeon. Stand your ground. He DID NOT follow through with what he claimed he could do for you and it is so discouraging. There are so many doctors that are so unqualified and they prey on poor victims that are just trying to have a chance at liking what they see. I feel for u very much and just try and stay positive and take great comfort in knowing your husband supports and loves u no matter what!!! And if he does then I think you can live yourself just the same.

I hate you are going through so much! With my asymmetry the dr used two different implant styles the first surgery and they looked symmetrical however they felt different internally to me. The last surgery I just had he was able to use the same implant style but 100cc more in one than the other. I'm contemplating on adding more to the smaller cc side. My left breast slants a little more to the side than my right but I also have scoliosis so I naturally look a little lopsided. Your breast do not look bad but I do see your concern. It puts you in a tough situation...to trust him again to go another surgery. Had he handled very many asymmetrical breast cases other than yours? I know all breast are asymetrical but you know what I mean.

Why would it b fuller than the right if he repositions it. Wouldn't that b good since it doesn't have as much fullness?

Maybe a larger implant would be the answer?
