why Not satisfied after 2 surgeries. Just curious as i'm planning on going for my 2nd soon. I was not satisfied with my first. However i only had lipo and felt i was misled by the PS.

If a revision is needed because the surgeon was cautious of removing too much tissue, It is not necessarily a bad thing.

It is an easy matter to remove a bit more. Attempting to fill a crater resulting from the removal of too much tissue is a different matter.

The problem comes down to the pre-operative assessment. Sometimes it is very difficult to distinguish between fatty and/or glandular tissue. Meaning that it is probably best to keep the surgeons options open to deal with what they actually find in the course of surgery.

When a patient agrees to Lipo only, The surgeon is handicapped by that limitation.

thats what he told me he was going to do. he never even mentioned gland removal. my thinking at the time was he was the dr. and i trusted him. Now i've done much homework and am much more informed about how this process works. I guess its partly my fault for not being more on top of things the first time. By the way i am slightly deformed now on one side (nipple sunk in).

That's one of the 'risks' you take when you have gyne surgery.
