Terrible J-Plazty Procedure
UPDATED FROM Bea2002

J-Plazty gave ZERO results & many scars
$7,500
A year later and zero results. I’m left with 10 very obvious scars. Dr Gerald Bock showed no empathy for his botched job that landed me in the emergency room for 3 days. He offered no consolation or refund.
ORIGINAL POST
J-Plazty Nightmare
I have minimal abdominal loose skin. I had J-Plazty performed by Gerald Bock. The procedures itself felt as if I was getting tortured alive. I felt every single puncture (he made 10 punctures for which I am badly scared). I ended up in hospital for 3 days with subcutaneous emphysema. It's been almost 2 months and there is no sign of skin tightening results. Doctor Gerald Bock says I need to wait 5 months to see results even though this procedure claims to be "instant results". I will update this review at the 5th month mark with my final review of the doctor and the procedure. As of this moment I am very disappointed and upset. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments on my experience? Before and after photos are attached.

Emphysema?

Yes Subcutaneous emphysema....the procedure consisted of administering co2 under the skin...and maybe he put too much? He did not know what he did to cause it but i had it severe...It hurt and I was swelled up from my pelvis to top of my head and every part of skin that I touched would sound like it was crackeling.

Sorry this transpired the way it did! What websites did you look reviews for this doctor? How did you decide to choose him?

Yes it was terrible! I suffer from anxiety that prevents me from doing any type of further procedures and depression now with all the scars. I chose him because it appeared he was the only doctor in my area that performs this new procedure.

Thank you but I guess the Before photo doesn’t show the loose skin very well. As I had mentioned in my original post it was minimal not major at all but enough looseness for the doctor to agree to do the procedure

WOW that's terrible that you had this experience. Your before pics are perfect. I wish I had your torso.
