Is this doctor irresponsible????

I talked to a business acquaintance last night on the phone and she told me she was recovering from a tummy tuck. My first thought was, gosh - you lost all that weight to the point you needed to have that done, cool! She continued to tell me that they has sucked I don't know how many pounds of fat off her belly and that she had gone from a size 3x underpants to a size 1x underpants. She is scheduled to go in for a boob job in a few weeks - didn't have the nerve to ask exactly what she was having done there. Then she is going to have the hips, thighs and butt lipo'd. I did not know that they would take a woman the weighed close to 200# and start sucking fat off of her and isn't she going to come out of this looking lumpy and basically like hell????

That all depends on who is doing the work. There is an excellent chance she will look just fine in a few months.

and all this time i thought eating right and exercising was the way to go.little did i know i should just go to the dr's fat and they would preform miracles! all kidding aside If it works for her i think it's great. i am just wondering if she is going to follow up all this surgery with an actual healthly lifestly. Or hell this is just a HUGE waste of money. personally i wouldn't go and get lipo and tummy tucks done unless i had tried diet and exercise and i couldn't get any further with that. but thats just me.

I think that some Dr.'s(or anyone for that matter) will do anything for $$$$$. Its a shame, but its the truth.

I say GO FOR IT! BUT why on earth did he not do her breast aug while she was already under for the tummy tuck? Many women get tummy and breast done at the same time. That seems odd unless time was a factor, if he expected her time under the anesthesia would be too long for elective surgery for some reason.

Tell her good luck!!! You know I'm all for instant gratification! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

WHy doesn't she have them use the fat from her lipo to fill out her breasts they do that for reconstructive work andmy feeling is it's a lot healthier than some foreign object... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
