Unhappy Tummy Tuck Nightmare

Looking for advise or to see if anyone has had this problem. 9 months ago I got a full tummy tuck...I ended up with a W for a cut not the u or smiley face.
I am still swollen, and I have a lump or something on my right side next to my scar that looks like a boiled egg. My stomach still feels like brick, and I had stitches the ones that are suppose to dissolve come out of me up to my 7th month... My dtr just stands against the wall and says I donot know. My stomach looks worst now than it did before I had the tummy tuck. Help ???
Scared to let him touch me now.

Re: Tummy Tuck Nightmare

Best advice is to find another doctor. Sounds like you need reconstructive surgery. Go to two more opinions with a reconstructive plastic surgeon. Stay far away from the doctor that did this to you.

Re: Tummy Tuck Nightmare

I saw the word NIGHTMARE and i had to respond! I feel your pain! I've been posting all over the place about my nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!! Only mine was a breast lift------eventually i want to get a tummy tuck too! Im scared to death now! I've heard too many horror stories! Anywayz i had a horrible doc that i trusted 100%...i did no research and no background check! I "was" a smoker and he never told me to quit! He mutilated me, and the lift sucked!! Come to find out he wasnt a plastic surgeon and had hundreds of law suits against him! So, 3 yrs later this May i found a wonderful PS who is known around the world! I QUIT smoking 2 months before surgery! DEVESTATED the same thing happened to me, that happened last time! I have fallen into a depression and i know you take a risk with plastic surgery....but....if you could only imagine the costs of my breasts you'd die!!!! Anywayz, i am finally now in the process of healing-----so, i am a little bit happy...the actual shape of them turned out the way i have always wanted them! I am sooooo sorry to hear what happened to you. I hopde you find a PS that can help you and fix what happened. This is devestating, for the reason that if a person chooses plastic surgery...then obviously the person has some insecuities about themselves! So, when surgery doesnt turn out the way we think it should-----it is just plain devestating-----there is no other way to put it! Good Luck........I wish you the best!
