Worst mistake of my life - left with disastrous results

Worst Mistake of my Life Choosing DR.Agha

Noah G.
$75,000
I cannot express how much I regret choosing Dr. Agha for my surgery. I underwent a thigh lift and upper body lift, paying an outrageous $75,000—more than three times what other surgeons charge. I was lured in by what seemed to be perfect results in his portfolio, and despite the financial burden, I spent my entire life savings, trusting him to deliver quality work.

Two years later, I am left with legs that are completely ruined. My calves—completely normal before—are now more than double their original size. They are swollen beyond recognition, grotesque, and horrifying. I was told that swelling would subside within 6-12 months, but here I am, over two years later, with misshapen, disproportionate legs that I am embarrassed to show in public. Instead of being left with excess skin, I now have deformed lower legs that look like a botched surgery gone terribly wrong.

When I returned to his office seeking answers and help, I was treated with shocking indifference. His staff showed absolutely no empathy and had the nerve to tell me that this was just a “risk of surgery” and that they would do nothing to help. There was zero accountability. Instead, they referred me to an acupuncturist, who confirmed that the surgery likely caused a blockage of the lymph node behind my knee. Yet despite this, Dr. Agha and his team took no responsibility and offered no assistance—financial or otherwise—to fix the damage.

I paid a premium for what was supposed to be some of the best work in the industry, and I’ve been left with disastrous, permanent results. My calves are a constant reminder of the horrific job that was done, and Dr. Agha’s office completely washed their hands of any responsibility. They do not care about the outcome, they do not stand behind their work, and they do not care about their patients.

Please, do not make the same mistake I did. Save yourself the heartache, the money, and the pain of a botched surgery. Dr. Agha’s prices are obscene, his results are appalling, and his staff is cold and completely non-empathetic. My legs—and my life—have been forever changed for the worse because of this surgery.
I’ve included pictures one month before and 2 years after.

Im sorry but this is not true. I came in last week after 2 years of this ruining my life begging for help with anything to improve this. I was dismissed at the door and told this is a side effect of your surgery when I was told up front swelling would only last 6-12 months now we’re at 2 years and I’m told go see another dr with no financial help on your side to help cover the new dr to make amends.

I am so sorry for your pain and thank you for sharing your experience. Your after pictures almost look like a form of lymphedema, is there any specific reason why this unresolved swelling is a side effect of a thigh lift? Was a significant nerve damaged by the Doctor during surgery that caused this problem?

Another Dr said the surgery scar went too low and the scar tissue completely blocked off the lymphatic node in the back of my knee. I’m not 100% on that. I kindly requested they help me pay slightly with the acupuncture they recommended in which they fully declined.

Is it possible that you have femoral nerve neuropathy as a result of this crude thighlift? Do have weird sensations and movement issues with your legs? Did you have a haematoma after surgery? Thank You for being brave and warning others as this can happen and should be reported! For those seeking a thighlift for cosmetic reasons one needs to consider very pervasive and distressing outcomes that have not even being thoroughly diagnosed and may not have any remedial solution.

But are the surgeons telling the patients that the worst possible scenario can happen? "Results may vary" is not nearly proper of a warning when the outcome can be something this bad! And for 75k? What! I mean, did he give her a new pair of legs for that price?
Let's be fair. Undiagnosed or not, this happened only after the surgery so most likely it's correlated. He should refund AT LEAST half of what she paid as a remedy. A deformed calf/calves is very depressing. It's not right that nothing was done about it.
