bambiwalton Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I will be having my band removed next week because of a revision I had at Cosmed. My port was moved during a very minor revision to my tummy tuck, without my knowledge, and I developed an infection. There appears to be no recourse, I can't even get my surgical records from Cosmed for my US doctors, or even a return phone call. I never thought this could happen. Hoping I can maintain my weight loss with all I've learned over the years. I would hate to see this happen to anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bambiwalton Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Thanks Lisal, I did return to OCC and the doctors advised I get my band out because of the risk of complications from the port infection. Turns out I have multiple areas of scar tissue in my stomach from the procedures I had at Cosmed. I'll be glad when this is all behind me. I'm happy to hear you've had your ps procedures done in the US... better safe than sorry. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannazwemy Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 What are your next choice for a good cosmetology center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolittle Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Cosmed in my opinion is a choice I wish I would have never picked. A big mistake. I've had multiple after surgery issues. There's a lot more plastic surgeons out there doing a lot better work than Cosmed. It takes a little work finding them, but they're out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hilarp Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I'm looking for an office to do some non-surgical cosmetic work (botox/fillers) down there. I contacted the Ariel Center connected with OCC, but they said they aren't doing these procedures at this time. Any recommendations?
