Report him to the board. That's what I'd do. He said he'd make this right but he keeps giving you the run around. That's not right.

Hi ladies it's been a while. I've been so depressed since surgery I tried to stay off this sight cause it was making my crazy. As I said before I had my bbl back in June 2016. My experience was not a good one. I had this huge lump on my left but check after surgery and well let's say it's still hear. It's not as noticeable as it once was but definitely still there. It's a lot harder and u can real it as u rub ur hand against it feels really gross. Supposed to be getting a revision this month but still nada. Hopefully I get the phone call for Dr Delvecchios office soon to schedule thIs revision asap. So over this waiting and waiting. And to think I have to do this whole recovery bs again ughhh.

Are you sure you wouldn't rather have someone else revise it? If I wasn't satisfied with the work, and they kept pushing off correcting it, I would be worried about giving them a second crack at me... And on my dime to boot! :-/ I hope no matter who works on you that this is resolved and you are happy!

I was thinking the same. But if I go with another doc I have to pay full price which I can not afford after dropping all this money on the first round.

Unhappy with terrible results from Dr Delvecchio

Hey all just updating so unhappy with the result of my bbl by Dr Delvecchio. Paid $9500 what a waste. I have a huge lump on the left cheek and indents on the right my butt is so unpreportioned and deformed. I hourly I choose the right surgeon but I guess not. Your supposed to get what u pay for and I did not. Should have went to DR and paid half the price and probably would have gotten better results. But I wanted to be safe and thought paying top dollar would ensure everything turn right. So wrong!!! Now I might have to have surgery again and still gotta come outta pocket for hospital fees. That's if the Dr actually keeps his word and perform the procedure. Still gotta wait another three months before that even happens. My life has been on hold since this surgery. Today is my anniversary and I am so miserable. Don't even wanna get undressed I front of my husband cause I so embarrassed of my butt. I did everything right this is so frustrating.

It will be ok a lot of the girls go for revision which is unfortunate but I am thinking about going for revision also. I wanted to go to DR as well but I had an issue getting my passport so I stayed in the United States. The surgeons and their staff here in the United States are so against medical tourism, but they be doing botch surgery just as much smdh. Thanks for keeping us updated and please inform us on your revision

This is so heartbreaking!

I feel so bad for you. I know exactly how you feel. Had my surgery with him last week. While I don't see any deformities yet, as it has only been a week. I am starting to regret,this surgery. My legs are so swollen, they look like tree trunks and my ass is so huge right now, way too big..I know it's only been a week and I am not fully healed yet,but I didn't want this huge ass ..I don't know how I'm going to live with this if it doesn't go down. I specifically told him not more than 1300 ccs, and he went and put 1900 In, anyway. Everyone says it's better to put as much as you can, but I didn't want that much. I know me,and I know I couldn't handle that much of a drastic change to my shape. Just wanted to fill it out a little, but now I have this huge budunk,..I have been crying for days. So I kinda understand how you feel. I'm so sorry. And hope you can get it to look more how you want after the revision..oh and today is my birthday, so no celebrating this special day for me either

Oh no! Have you spoken to him to ask why he didn't listen to you? He may be the professional, but if you tell him not to do something he should honor that.

Wow that's sucks happy belated. I felt the same way after mine surgery it was huge and exaggerated. I was so depressed and the recovery is hell. You will get through it just very slowly. Now that all my swelling went done u can't even tell I got my ass done. Believe it will go down drastically. I had 2800 cc but I lost so much volume and most of it was swelling. It will go down quite a bit and you'll see the difference just hope most of it stays. Hope everything turn out to ur liking in the end.

Thanks so much, that make me feel a little better..went today for one week post op, told him how I felt, and how angry I was that he didn't honor what we agreed on. There was no real apology. He just assured me that he's sure I will be happy because you loose alot of volume, but if I'm not happy in 6 months, he can somewhat reverse it, and lipo out what he put in. It makes me feel a little better to know i won't be stuck like this,but I'm pissed off still because no matter what, at the end of the day, we agreed on 1300. I told him literally 4 times ..no more than that! He even said to me, " don't worry, I have it written down on your chart. And than again right before the surgery, when he was marking,me up, I repeated it again..no more than 1300cc, he said yes. After surgery I'm walking out all groggy and he shows me the pictures of him working on me, I see it says 1900 on my ass!! I couldn't believe it..who does he think he is to go against a patients wishes, especially one who is paying alot of money..I get so angry even thinking about it.. I'm so sorry for you. I really think that the lump can be fixed. I will be praying for you. everything will work out
August 30, 2016
Yes went for preop today, he really had nothing to say, just that if I don't like it in 6 months, he will lipo it back out..That is not the point..your exactly right, even though he is the so called "expert " you listen to your patients wishes..I'm not even exaggerating when I say I told him 4 times that I did not want more than 1300ccs. Even right before surgery started and he was marking me up, I said it again. He than shows me a pic while I'm still groggy of him working on me and on my ass i see 1900ccs written on my ass. I was to out of it to care at that point, but when I went home and my mind cleared, I became so angry..How dare he do what he wants over what his patient asks for. Oh and I spoke to another patient of his, and he did the same thing to her.

That's weird, it only posted my first sentence didn't post the rest of what I said. Anyway I was just saying that if I ever go to a concert with him I'm going to ask him about using drains and also to make sure he's not too aggressive with his liposuction technique. I just notice that the women

Boy this is getting annoying - I'm trying one more time and that's it. I just notice that the women who complain about similar issues to yours all mention that he didn't use drains and talk about aggressive lipo. I'd rather play it safe and avoid these outcomes if I can. I'd hate to shell out a ton of money only to end up feeling worse about myself than I already do. I can feel that way for free you know? I really hope he honors that revision offer and that he correct these issues for you.

Yeah he never mentioned any of that just said where he would remove the fat n that I'd be happy with the result. I'm hoping he does the right thing and right this wrong.
