Choose Another Doctor

I think choosing Dr Ali as my surgeon was the biggest regret of my life. I will now have to live with what my body has become and I mentally I do not know if I can handle that. I had a tummy tuck, lipo 360 and fat transfer: what he called a "mini bbl" in October 2020. I paid 20,000 in full. (If you're reading this, please do not agree to a "mini bbl”).
I will not speak on the staff. Dr Ali himself, as a person, is very kind - he has great bedside manner.
However, I am 7 months post op from my procedure and I look absolutely terrible.
I lost my bellybutton post tummy tuck. The hole healed up and closed. I had to go back to Dr. Ali so that he could create a new bellybutton, paid $1000 in OR fees. What I have as a bellybutton now just looks sad. It is scarred badly and I honestly do not know if I will ever be able to show my stomach. This is such a hard realization for me.
I went for a tummy tuck to be more confident, to finally wear the clothes I've been dying to wear. I guess I will never be able to do that.
The TT scar is very long and extends past my hip, I was not someone with an incredible excess of loose skin so I find it hard to understand why my scar is so long and uneven. The placement of the scar is also very high and whether it be with Dr Ali or another doctor, I plan to undergo a scar revision.
The liposuction on my back is uneven and bumpy. I try not to let this bother me but its just another area of my body I have become self conscious about that didn’t bother me pre-surgery. I followed my post op instructions. I had multiple massages done. I don’t know how this turned out so bad.
But finally, the worst part of the entire surgery: my hips. The fat transfer to my hips was the worst decision ever. I cannot begin to explain how ridiculous they look. They are massive. I look like a cartoon character. The way Dr Ali has shaped my body is unnatural. No woman should be shaped like this after surgery. The lateral area was over-injected and there is no gradual slope from the waist to the hip. This isn't what I wanted at all. I'm so embarrassed.
I plan to have Dr Ali remove the fat that he grafted to the hips in May. I will probably have to pay for this and honestly it’s become so hard for me financially after spending $20,000 on my body I didn’t anticipate to continue to have to spend more. I am so so sad.
