Very Disappointing Results
I really wanted to be able to give this doctor 5 stars because he came highly recommended, but unfortunately my results were very disappointing, especially considering how much money I paid.
I originally added a tummy tuck to help achieve the results I wanted, but I was left with a very uneven abdomen. The right side of my stomach is flat, while the left side still noticeably bulges because little to nothing was removed there. It is visibly uneven.
I followed all aftercare instructions exactly as directed, healed well, and gave it plenty of time. After 8 months, when the swelling should no longer be a major factor, I reached out to ask what could be done to correct it. I was then told this happened because Dr. Campos “doesn’t do liposuction with tummy tucks.” That was never properly explained beforehand, but instead i was told that liposuction is done before tummy tuck and regardless, no patient should be left with such uneven results.
What upset me even more was being told I would need to pay another $6,500 to fix the issue after already paying around $11,000 the first time. Not sure if Dr.Campos even really saw my photos and concerns I sent or was it's just the office staff that made this decision that I need to pay $6,500 to fix this.
This is not about unrealistic expectations or simply “not reaching my goal.” I understand some cosmetic procedures may require revisions. My concern is that my abdomen was left uneven, which should not happen from a professional cosmetic procedure. I trusted this office and invested a lot financially and emotionally, so this experience has been extremely disappointing.
