I could not regret more the decision I made in Jan 2010 to undergo a tummy tuck. I t has ruined my life and I am still dealing with issues that arose from my initial surgery. After my tummy tuck I had dog ears on both sides and had to have them removed. After this surgery I ended up with another Dog Ear, which to me its ridiculous. How can someone undergo a procedure to remove Dog Ears and need up with another one?

I am now looking for another surgeon to help me with my existent Dog Ear. It's been a tremendous challenge and I am no longer who I once was. I have resigned from my job, I am extremely lost about my entire existence due to feeling like a abnormal person with a deformity.

My looks are my priority and I was never 400lbs and never had a lot of loose skin. I just wanted to improve and now I can even take my shirt off in public. Make sure you speak to patients before you select your surgeon. I just heard good things about mine and right after I developed Dog Ears, I heard that many patients of my doctor were very dissatisfied with they results as well.

My Dr. was not able to deliver the results he once promised. He is a very polite man, his staff is great, but in the end I care for the results. After all, I paid a lot of money and of course they will be smiling at you, but we go to a Plastic Surgeon for results, not for smiles.
