My suspicions were correct! A non PS. I always tell patients it is very easy to discover who are the "real" PSs. 1. Ask to see their board certification diploma, it will state which board. (more)

3. Call State Medical Board for qualifications and board status.

Wow...an internist/ER doc did that? Yikes! I feel so sorry for your outcome. It's too bad that it's so hard for the average Joe to know the proper credentials of their doctor. It's even (more)

Wow...an internist/ER doc did that? Yikes! I feel so sorry for your outcome. It's too bad that it's so hard for the average Joe to know the proper credentials of their doctor. It's even worse, though, that under-trained and unscrupulous docs misrepresent their abilities (or lack thereof) to patients. It's not so much your fault as the doc's.

Best of luck,

Thank you for letting us know. Unfortunately, your story is all too common! However, fortunately for you, your results aren't that bad (compared to others I've seen) and can be made better. It is very unfortunate that patients are taken advantage of in this way. The general public has no idea that there is a difference between a Plastic Surgeon and a Cosmetic Surgeon. I am a Plastic Surgeon and have trained in and perform "cosmetic surgery", also known as "Aesthetic Surgery". Cosmetic Surgeons cannot call themselves Plastic Surgeons because they are not trained in Plastic Surgery. (less)

You are very brave to allow us to see what having surgery/liposuction by a non qualified plastic surgeon can result in. So very very sorry. In my opinion I would not wait 6 months I would offer you lipo in elevated areas and fat transfer in depressed areas. This could be a few operations and the cost tens of thousands. Best of luck.

The best thing to do is additional contouring with liposuction for your abdomen as well as for the low back area tom smooth our the areas of lumpiness. You may need to have some fat placed back into your upper buttocks or just additional contouring of the low back and waistline around this area of too much fat removal. Skin tightening of your abdomen is another solution since it appears you have some stretch marks and skin laxity. It is definitely fixable. (less)

This is unfortunate, but we all see this from time to time. You should give it at least 6 months, then seek some one with good experience in additional lipo and fat transfer.
Good luck. (more)
