Hello, I know about the case when plastic surgery gone wrong. Maybe you’ll find it useful. I am not surprised that you couldn’t find anything, things don't always go as planned and we are seeing an increasing number of problems associated with these procedures. No one really likes to talk about it. I know a woman who had breast-reduction operation. After the procedure she was in constant pain due to a gaping hole inside her left breast. She suffered from what is called "wound breakdown". She has managed to recover after five months, but is physically and emotionally scarred by the experience. One other Plastic surgeon said that he spends nearly 60% of his time operating on patients who are dissatisfied with previous cosmetic surgery. I am not sure who to blame, unskilled surgeons? Promises like "lunchtime lift", "no bruising" and "no swelling" are unreal; these operations are in fact exceptionally complicated. I’ve heard for another case that went wrong where the woman ended up with serious burns after a laser resurfacing procedure. I personally think that it is the doctor's duty to ensure the patient understands the risks of all procedures.

The doctor who did my surgery suggested 2 different sizes. His first attempt he placed the wrong one in the wrong side. Even after the second time and some discounted lipo as an apology,my left breast is very hard.its hard to sleep on it and feels very different from the right. He wanted me to come back.he said it was dangerous to leave unfixed. No way will I ever go back to him. Not sure what to do it has been years and worry more and more as the pain increases.feels like i have a fever in my breast most of the time.

how old do you have to be to have a breat enlargment

I am not really sure if there is a minimum age for a doctor to perform this procedure. But, I think that it is safe to say that either way, a person should be at least 18 years of age before going under the knife for this type of surgery. At least by then a person will have had a chance to become both emotionally, and physically mature enough to make an informed decision - in most cases at least, some people may not be, but I think most should be by that age.

Many plastic surgery nightmare stories begin with patients believing the false advertisements of horrible and evil plastic surgeons who are famous and on tV such as Ellenbogen, Michael Evan Sachs, Brad Jacobs and Jan adams. All of them except Ellenbogen have FINALLY LOST THEIR MEDICAL LICENSES.

Some plastic surgeons false advertise and alter their photos. They buy themselves fame by using publicists and getting advertisement. They lurk on the internet writing fake testiomonials to promote themselves.

Richard Ellenbogen is one of these scam artists "doctors" -- unfortunately -
after the fact -- I learned that he is horrible with rhinoplasty and breast surgeries. He has deformed many people. He cotinually tries to have his patients' night mare stories deleted and replaced with phony positive stories.

He pays massive amounts of money so his name and his many websites show up first when one googles "breast or rhinoplasty specialist".

My once beautiful wife's face was completely destroyed by the Evil and unethical Richard Ellenbogen of the show Dr. 90210. When she consulted with reconstructive surgeons around the country, she met numerous others who had also been mutilated and deformed by this reckless, greedy, monster.

What people don't realize is that any quack can get on TV and on Oprah including Jan Adams, Michael Evan Sachs and Brad Jacobs -- all addicts who have finally lost their medical licences. Bad doctors often hire publicists to get them on TV and to get fame b/c that is really the only way for them to get patients.

Michael Evan Sachs who was also a publicity hound like Ellenbogen had fake photos on his whole website.

My wife's recontructive surgeon told her that Ellenbogen is far worse of a mutilator than even Michael Evan Sachs, and that it is impossible to try to fix the damage Ellenbogen did to her and many others.

My wife suffers from SEVERE POST TRAUMATIC STRESS, ANXIETY, PANICK ATTACKS, SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, & REACTIONARY DEPRESSION as a result of being mutilated and deformed by Richard Ellenbogen.

Furthermore, we both suffer from DEBT AND FINANCIAL LOSSES BY HAVING TO PAY AROUND $100,000 FOR RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERIES AND PROSTEHTIC NOSE THANKS TO ELLENBOGEN REMOVING SO MUCH OF IT AND CUTTING MUSCLES ABOVE HER LIP. Additional -- there is the loss of income as she lost her job b/c she looks too deforme to work in publicity and marketing.

THERE'S THE LOSS Of confidence, of LIVING A normal happy life, of loss of socializing, loss of going out and seeing friends, loss of SELF ESTEEM --

PLUS, THERE'S THE RIB SCARS, THE EAR SCARS, THE COLUMELLA SCAR -- ALL DONE IN EFFORTS TO RECONSTRUCT HER FACE.

THERE IS ALL SORTS OF PYSICAL, MENTAL, and emotional pain that can happen as a result of bad rhinoplasty.

Ellenbogen hires lawyers to continually remove all of the negative comments and ratings on him. But, we will post pictures of things that he wants no one to see - if he has any more ratings on him removed -- This is our warning to him.

There are 3 rhinoplasty forums, and if anyone cares to research Ellenbogen -- just email the moderators of each forum, and they will share the many nightmare stories about Ellenbogen that they have.

To see photos of botched Richard Ellenbogen patients please visit ratemds or ripoffreport -- There are lots of Ellenbogen victims with plastic surgery nightmares on these sites. There's also contact info for some of these victims.
