I Am Still Trying to Wake Up from my Worse Nightmare. Dr. Rafael Gómez DESTROYED MY BODY in 2021
So glad to see so many happy results in here. My experience with Dr Rafael and Lilly to be honest, it was good initially, after surgery and especially after i returned to Canada, nightmare, especially with Lilly, cause Dr Rafael, besides the 3-4 visits while in Bogotá, it was Lilly the front person you deal with all the time, and It became a nightmare right after surgery for me. Too much to be said here. But short version, true traumatizing horrifying moment from the first time I looked at my body in the mirror post surgery in Bogotá after my 1rst shower, till today as i am writting this review i sob into tears every time i look at my body, i just cant accept this is my new body. This is not what plastic surgery is supposed to do to a person, they're supposed to feel improved, not destroyed. I get so depressed, I actually avoid looking at my body now, i can't handle it, i burst into sobbing tears every time. My body is destroyed! As a professional plastic surgeon with over 40 years experience, what was he thinking???? First do no harm, that is every Dr surgeon oath. As a professional, once he accessed me in person, he knew he couldn't do what he did to me, but he did it anyways, i call it as i see it, an extra $1000n Lilly got offended when i said it, but why else did he do what he did to me???? The end result can not be good for his professional reputation. All i truly needed was vaser liposuction. I had gained some weight in belly area, and for me to lose the belly, i have to lose a lot of weight. I was confortable with my weight, I don't like being skinny, as I had been really skinny most of my life, but I wasn't happy with the extra weight gain on my belly area. A good friend had used Dr Rafael for her breasts implants, and had nothing but great things to say about Dr Rafael, so she gave me his info, I contacted Lilly, send her some fotos, had inquired about abdominal tightening, and if to do so i had to have a mini tummy tuck. Lilly said she would inquire with Dr. Rafael, and then responded that He had said I wasn't a candidate for any tummytuck, vaser liposuction is all i needed, understood. I had no loose skin
no stretch marks nothing, so I asked Lilly to ask Dr. RAFAEL to assess my abdominal wall once i was in Bogotá, and give me his professional honest opinion, if I would benefit from abdominal tightening, And if so, would he be able to do a c-section like cut opening to do it? She said he would access me once I was there in Bogotá, if he could do it, it it would be an extra $1000, she recommended i send the money together with vaser liposuction money, so I did, all good. In the contract she put the $1000 under tummy tuck, but not because i was going to get one done, because thats the procedure for the abdominal tightening, if Dr Rafael agreed to do it. We had that clear understanding. I went to Bogotá together with a cousin, both as his patients. I speak Spanish pretty fluent, my husband is Cuban, I specifically asked Dr. Rafael to please be honest with me, wether there was benefit to me to do abdominal tightening, or simply do the vaser liposuction. I was very clear to him that my husband does not like scars, specially unnecessary scars, and if i wasnt going to benefitit, why do it? My husband met me with a perfect body, loved it, didn't even agree to me having liposuction done, and would be very disappointed with a scar in my body. I informed Dr. Rafael very clearly and fully understood what inwas inquiring of him, that if the scaring was going to be very noticeable, I would rather not do it. He told me to get undressed, to sit on his medical office bed, assessed me, confirmed to me I had no lose skin, which confused me to why he was telling me that, but whatever, I told him yeah. I don't. He proceeded to tell me that if I did the abdominal tightening, it would pull me in nicer and tighter, I thought nice, what about the scar???? My husband won't like it if it's noticeable. Dr. Rafael response......it will heal beautifully and hardly noticeable. Your husband will hardly notice it. I have a witness to it cause my cousin was also there as a patient. So I said, ok, cross my fingers, and I trusted Dr. Rafael. God if I could only turn back time.....there isn't one day I haven't cried, I HATE the body I have inherited from Dr. Rafael. I've hit such depression and hate towards myself for having trusted this doctor. Unlike many before and after pics in here, My body wasn't destroyed by pregnancy, although I had one pregnancy 14 prior to my surgery, I was blessed with great genetics. I wasn't overweight with loose skin issues, like I said, I had been really skinny most of my life, and had recently gained some weight which I was happy with, just not happy with the belly area. My after isn't an improvement of my before, its a total destruction. Even the liposuction, was far from perfect. I have complaints, but overall good job in some areas. Dr Rafael left fat in areas that I don't understand why he would, when I wear pants I have this horrendous fat bulges that looks ridiculous, and I have no idea why he would leave it there. Also I had requested he did liposuction of my very upper inner thighs, cause from weight gaining, it bothers me when I wear short shorts cause it rubs, and it so hard to lose weight in that area, he said he would, marked me in the surgery room, he didn't. I asked him to remove fat from my inner knees, he said he would, he didn't. What he did instead was, he removed fat from inner thighs, between my upper upper inner thighs, and inner knees, which I never asked him to do. Now when you look at my inner legs, there's a inner dent, amazing look. I had serious arguments with Lilly while i was in Bogotá in my behalf and my cousin, things got tense already there, we did not get proper accommodations for post surgery aftercare which we paid for to have it inclusive for the 14 days we were there, but i will spare the details, then once back in Canadá, I contacted Lilly after spending thousands of dollars trying to deal with her father disastrous scaring with professionals, here in Canadá, which were all that horrified of Dr. Rafael work on me, and could not believe it was done by a profesional plastic surgeon. They all kept questioning me if i hadn't fallen for one of those infamous false butcher surgeons scammers. I explainedit all, and they all exclaimed that the scar was not a professional plastic surgery scar, it was a butcher scar, and if in fact Dr Rafael Gómez is a professional plastic surgeon, what was He thinking???? Why did he scar me like that, and what was he attempting to do???? To which i reply with tears and i dont knows. I have also gotten in touch with many other plastic surgeons in Canadá and abroad, USA, Brazil, Colombia, sent them my photos of my body before and after, and got nothing but the same reaction, shock and awhhhh. I have been told by every single one of them, i should look into suing Dr. Rafael Gómez.when i contacted Lilly after the nurses here couldn't do anything more for my scar, and they told me i had to contact the surgeon who did this to me to remediate my situation, Lilly told me her father Dr Rafael did an excellent job. My body was much improved from before. The scaring was my body fault. It was how my body heals, my fault her father decided to scar me for life when all i needed was liposuction at most, my fault. My results are horrific. Dr. Rafael Gómez, a profesional plastic surgeon with over 40 years experience performed a full tummy tuck from hip to hip on a body without any loose skin or stretch marks, and the trauma and destruction of my body i am left with, according to Lilly, is my fault. Imagine that. So see my results. Those are today pictures 2 years after surgery. The video is a picture of me before surgery with my then happy husband and happy wife. I couldn't download the pic so i did a quick video of pic. Check it out. What you think? Was the before the improved or the after?
