Beware!!! UNEVEN TUMMY TUCK!!!! He gets 1 star for not cutting me in a zig zag & for my belly button being "ok." I think it's slightly off because it doesn't line up with the button of my pants. My problem with my surgery is that my left side is puffier than the right side from DAY ONE. Now, when I had my consult he said I didn't need lipo. I had a lot of loose skin. I went to my 1 week follow up, I addressed the puffy side & he said "oh that's because you did get lipo." Hmmm ok, you said I didn't need lipo. Also, my upper belly sticks out and he said "that's how your abdominal cavity is." He just looks at me and says "everything is fine." "You look great." I go back for my 6 month follow up and again he says "everything is fine." "You look great." I said what about this puffy patch on my left side, again he says "it's because I didn't get lipo." He then says we can suction it out but it really won't make a difference.
I went for my yearly follow up end of Sept. I'm telling him about all the things wrong. I am constantly getting bloated everyday towards the end of the day. I eat healthy, I don't drink alcohol and I exercise 5 times a week. He tells me the bloating is from my abdominal muscles being sown tight that eating causes it to expand. I could MAYBE believe that if I ate bad or overate but I DO NOT! I bring up the puffy left side AGAIN because at my 6 month appt he said we could suction it out. I'm thinking he will want to see what we could do to fix it but NO instead he now tells me that it's because I had so much stretch marks and I lost skin elasticity that he can't fix that. UMMMM excuse me??? WHAT?? How in the hell?? If that were the case then my right side would be exactly like my left side. MY RIGHT SIDE IS FLATTER. Why wouldn't he tell me during my consultation I had too many stretch marks and lost skin elasticity that he cannot fix that??? You know why?? because it's BS!!! He keeps brushing it of by saying "you look great." I asked him if I am ok because the bloating worries me. I don't know if something is going on inside internally. Again, he barely looks & touches me to say "you are fine," "you look great," "there is nothing wrong with you." How does he really know by barely looking & touching me?? I literally felt like crying. This man doesn't care. Literally less than 5 min to check me and hear me out. He booked out of there QUICK. BUT the new nurse (I forgot her name) she stayed in the room and was more concerned about me. She asked me way more questions than he did. I hope there isn't anything wrong with me. I never in a million years thought I would ever get this surgery because 1. I am scared & 2. money. I saved my money, my son, friends & family helped me pay for this. I am so upset that I am uneven. He can say it's because I didn't get lipo or because I had too many stretch marks & lost skin elasticity all he wants. But clearly he didn't cut enough off the left side and didn't pull down as tight as he did on the right side. I still have a lower pooch. I don't feel any different than before I did surgery. I thought all of it would be gone and it's not. He says I look GREAT but I find it funny that I don't see my case shown on Instagram or on his website showing what a GREAT job he did on me. Because clearly he didn't do his best. I think it's a blessing he didn't advise me to get the lipo because only God knows how that would have gone. Ladies PLEASE be very picky about who you choose to work on you. Even though he has GREAT reviews pay attention to the bad ones because I didn't. I thought "well his reviews are far greater than the bad ones." But IF something goes wrong, or you're unhappy about his work & feel something is off this is the reaction you will get. His bed side manner is TERRIBLE. A "GOOD" plastic surgeon should want to fix his mistakes and make sure his patient is healthy & happy. Now I am stuck with an uneven belly AND HE DOESN'T CARE!!!! read more
