I'll get photos soon. Right now I am not happy. The doctors office hasn't called to even schedule a post op. No photos. Nothing. I do see results but not $14k worth and I am still HIGHLY disappointed the doctor did the modified belly button float method without my knowledge until I woke up. I was looking forward to a new Bb as mine had issues and a scar from an old piercing anyways. Because he did this method I am now told I probably can get a re do, and there are at least 3-4 inches extra that should have been taken. His only explanation. "Oh this was a highly progressive method." My thought process is that I am some guinea pig and he wants new photos or documents for a medical journal.

Here is my pic of this morning. Felt skinny but still swollen on the side profile. I refer to it as my tree trunk look. Thinking my breasts may need a lift. I like my cup size (34D) but wishing they were higher.

Incision

I'm very pleased with my incision, especially after seeing some horror stories about wound issues and necrosis. I am seeing my doc for a three week post op tomorrow and I do have some fluid issues and my belly button needs to be addressed but I am overall pleased. I look amazing in the morning for about 10 min. Haha

Staff was pleasant and nice. Doctor was knowledgeable but did the procedure different than expected and now I cannot get it fixed. Very sad upon waking up. I am not thrilled with the $14k results because of it and it was not worth the cost. A follow up was not scheduled at 6 months, no post ops were taken and the explanation was it was 'progressive'. I do see results but they could've been better. Dr Verne did give me a cell # I could reach him at and did call the first night. However I did develop an issue the following week and of course he was on vacation. Not his fault and it was worked out - I was sent to an on call doc in a different town. But it was not nearly as nice of a facility. Bad timing on both of our parts :) The initial intake that was done was very unprofessional an there happened to be a 'trainee'. Every other employee was highly professional and appeared organized. This woman looked like she could flip burgers for a living. Sorry. After the most embarrassing moments (photos)..then the camera breaks..then you come back for your pre op and they have to do photos again!? I'm scheduling an appt to see what we can do about this and I do trust his skill as a surgeon. I will update as we go from here.
