I had lost over 100 lbs. I was seeking a BREAST REDUCTION and TUMMY TUCK, the Dr. said I needed a Breast Lift. I had the financing for the Surgery, so the day of my Consult, I was booked for Surgery at a Private Clinic. Surgery was performed, both the Surgeon and myself were not happy with the result, the Surgeon booked me at the same Private Clinic to have a Full Revision completed, at no further cost to me.

It's interesting how these things work, our perceptions of ourselves... I see a huge difference between your first procedure, second, and the final revision. (I think you look great and show a significant amount of improvement!). It has actually given me hope that the revision surgery that I'm to have with her will be successful! Lol

How are things now? Were you able to find another PS to sort it out? Did Dr Van Laeken say why this happened, again?

I can not afford to have it fixed at this point. She was the one that offered the revision at no charge as she knew the job she did was not satisfactory, though on my TT scar, she worked on the wrong side during the Revision....A nightmare!!
