    I wonder why the second Dr. didn't tell you that the scar would move up if you went bigger? I'd say they both are in the wrong, with the Aussie Dr being the most resposible.
    I guess you could talk to a plastic surgeon who specializes in reconstruction. I've heard there's a good one in Miami, I'll ask someone who knows what his name is. Otherwise, it looks like the only solution would be for you to have yet another surgery, where you went back to the original implant size....so the scar would again be in the crease and you wouldn't have the separation problem be as noticable.

    shouldnt the thi doc know that you probally shouldnt have gone larger because it would have created a scar like that?

    wow, i didnt know that the "munted" part could happen from a doc stitching it up the wrong way... Has the aussie doc gotten back to you yet?

    sorry if im asking too many ?'s... I just cant believe a ps could get away with this.

    I don't think the scars would be higher like that just because you got larger implants. Tons of women go back in for larger implants and they don't look like that. Maybe the implant has slipped out of the pocket...which caused these problems. It's totally the PS fault. I would consult an attorney and another PS to fix the problem.

    Damn babe, I am totally speechless ! The good thing is they look pretty good when your arms are down. I agree with VG and the others about seeking legal help. The plus side is that you're beautiful enough that must people will be looking at your face and not so much at the flaws on your breasts.

    mermaidnz, thanks to the internet I do believe online consultations are now available with some surgeons.

    Perhaps you could find names of skilled corrective surgeons through some of the boob job forums? Like

    Generally, when you get plastic surgery, you sign a waiver that you are aware that there can be complications, and things can go wrong, etc ... and that the ps is not liable. Period. You can see a lawyer, but more than likely, your ps has already covered his ass.

    I'm sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your implants. I love mine.

    What would I do in your situation? Hard for one to really say, unless they go through it. But, I'd start researching reputable docs for a redo and repair in the future. HEAVY on the reputable docs!

    hmm yeah i dunno what to do.

    i know i should get a re do and go smaller, but damnit, i wanted much bigger then i got anyways, so it seems silly to go down a sixe when i wanna go up several!!

    my thai dr DID warn me that the scar would move,and he tried his damned hardest to convince me not to go bigger,for a few reasons ( too big for body,to heavy for my skin,scar moving etc) but it was my decision at the end of the day.

    the bunching thing however, just sucks.
    lol sorry you all have to out up with all my dramas ( hah between my boobs and japan, you think id have learnt to listen to you guys!!! you all warned me on thoth accounts,and i didnt listen i guess one has to learn these things)

    i sent an email to the australian plasctic and cosmetis society ( or something like that) and NO reply.
    ha guess they are ignoring it.

    thai dr emailed back,i sent him the pics of the flexing photo,he said that it is also from the implant pushing on the scar,tightly ( another reason to have gone smaller i guess opps my bad!) and he reckons it will get better in time. but it defintaly isnt getting better in the last 4 months.

    arghh stupid boobs.

    still,at least i have 2 of them, and they are big! heh

    Complications are one thing...capsular contraction...pocket breaking...bottoming out...unforseen infections...

    But, a total fuck-up in surgery is another thing. Those contracts prevent people from suing the doctor for things that are out of his control (as listed above), but things that go wrong because he was in a hurry or careless or doesn't know what the fuck he's doing is something altogether. Besides...just because it's in a contract and that contract was signed doesn't mean jack. If it goes against rules/regs/laws set by the state/municipality/federal/local goverrnments...that makes the contract null and void.

    Mermaid...just get a lawyer consult and see what happens.

    hey, i just got a reply back from the aussie ps cosmetic surgeon society thingie.


    they are totally gonna help me by the sounds of it.
    they asked what i "wanted out of it"

    its not like i want anything out of it as such, i just want both my boobs matching and looking a lil better!


    hopefully these guys will be able to point me in the right direction first, and they might know the best ps type lawyers around.

    now im a lil more happy

    I'm sorry Hun about all the trouble you've had with your boobs. Try not to think about the scars too much they're probably way more noticable to you than to others (like how most people are about their flaws) and you probably still look GREAT to all the customers who love big boobs (and you're thin too!) and the scars probably aren't noticable across the room just close up- I have a few bruises on my legs and they're not that noticable far away. Maybe you could try the concealer thing like Nina mentioned and wait a bit then get the scar reduction.

    Mermaidz, ... I too am speechless. As Farrah said, they do look good when your arms are down though. Im sorry that this happened, but I am sure that you can get something done about that. If he knew the scar would move up, then he should not have done it regardless.

    Hope everything works out for ya.

    Holden is a customer who frequents the club across the road from my club (which mermaidnz used to work within). I've met him. He's a real person. He's kewl. Not her boyfriend.

    Hi...

    So you're 5 months post op? That's not too early for laser treatments! I'm 4 months post op and about to get laser treatments myself. My doctor told me that it's not too soon, and so did the three different Dermatologists that I have consulted with. I've also heard of women getting permanant makeup to cover the scars. Good luck!

    Whoa, Mermaid. I'm no medical expert, but it looks to me like you have severe case of double bubble, and the dent is is scar tissue causing adhesion from the skin to the implant. Plus the incision wasn't positioned correctly for the size of the implant. They should have told you that if you planned to go bigger, the inframammary crease wasn't the way to go. Are they under the muscle? What volume and what diameter?

    Adinas right... Im sure there is a way to fix them.. but my thoughts now are

    is it really the Aussie PS's fault? he left a scar but wasnt it under your boob. Isnt the Thai PS the one tha gave the bigger implants which caused this problem? Id definately see a lawyer and see what they think...

    Are you an Australian citizen / resident? (I'm not sure how the NZ thing works, sorry... I can try and find out if you want.) If so, you know you're entitled to half an hours free legal advice? It might be useful to find out where you stand for free or at least get some guide lines of what to do rather than forking out $ straight away?

    First of all, I know this is a good place to vent, but I would strongly recommend that you not post any more details until you make the decision NOT to sue. If you decide to sue, any or all of the things you've said here could potentially be admitted as evidence. And some of the admissioins you've made absolutely gut your case. I'll send you a PM so you can correct what was no doubt an oversight.

    Second, find a lawyer in Australia (I assume the operation was in Australia) that specializes not only in Medical Malpractice (in Australia "Clinical Negligence") but has experience in cosmetic surgery claims, and if possible, breast augmentation surgery negligence. From what I've read of Aussie Med Mal law, you're damned lucky it happened there instead of California or Florida. The reason you should see a lawyer first is that the lawyer will know plastics physicians that you can see ON HIS DIME, to do an evaluation of your case, and potentially recommend a medical course of action. Stay away from the Aussie PS Medical board for the moment.

    Third, sueing will cost you nothing, provided you find a lawyer to take the case. I doubt you'd find a decent med mal lawyer to take this in California for a variety of reasons. But Australia has a more liberal standard for assigning negligence liability than the US and especially California, so you are in luck. In the US these sorts of cases are taken on by the lawyers as "contingency fee" cases, meaning the lawyers get a percentage of he recovery. Since the lawyer will be fronting the costs for medical and economic experts, deposition fees and other costs, in California the contingency fee percentage would typically be close to 50% of the total recovery.

    Fourth, and most important....I CAN ONLY IMAGINE how this horrible event has had a catastrophic effect on your life. I would guess that since your appearance of your bare chest has a direct impact on your up to now very lucrative livelihood, that your earnings may have fallen dramatically, and may continue to be far below what they would have been. Also, I would guess that your personal life has been hit hard, including relationships and possible depression. But....I could be wrong....I don't know what you've been going through. Fortunately, IF MY GUESSES are correct, you can be compensated for these substantial and continuing damages, and you'll be able to afford corrective surgery from one of the top specialists in the world.

    Fifth, Venus is absolutely right about any so called waiver they may have tricked you into signing. These ridiculous clauses are unenforceable and frankly an offensive thing to ask a patient to sign. Physicians cannot have their professional responsibility waived by their patients or anyone else.

    I'll send you a PM with some specifics. I'm sure you'll be back to your old spectacularly flawless self and quarter mil US$ a year earning potential in due time...and with a little help from your friendly Aussie attack dog lawyer.

    Fight the good fight.
