What are those holes, oh my god, does anybody could see his butcher-horror job, what a idiot,sorry it's very sad.What that means, everybody can became a plastic surg. dr.these days & start chop-chop. What a mess, somebody had to lose life that he can finally be removed. i wish him the same pain like he gave all those people that he ruin for life...my heart goes to West family...
I've had plastic surgery myself, and actually the same breast surgery as this woman, and I have to say, my scars did look like that, but from falling down the stairs not two days after surgery, this is insanity. However, after stitches are removed,often scars do look a bit like that.
As a breast cancer survivor who DID all the research and met with several different Dr's, I know I did all I could to make an informed decision. It wasn't until AFTER the reconstructive surgery & complications you couldn't imagine, that was when other Dr's I saw finally admitted that this guy is "known around town to screw up this kind of surgery!" It wasn't the Dr. in this article but it goes to show, you just never know. DO NOT put the blame on the patient. I beat cancer but was scarred for life by a so-called "reputable" plastic surgeon!
When will people learn that God made us all perfect? I guess not until you try to make yourself perfect all over again, and realized... damn! why did I do that? I was just perfect before the scars. Don't blame the doctors. You make the choice to go under the knife for "VANITY." To feel better about yourself. If U didn't feel good about yourself B4 the surgery, what makes U think a few nip & tuck is going to make U feel better? Especially when U have to live with the scars for the rest of your life...Stop blaming others 4 your mistakes... Only we R in control of ourselves. Not the doctor, not the priest, and not the politicians. Learn to love yourself as U R.

Clearly it was a butchering ala Dr Frankenstein. You can't blame the patient due to the fact that her tummy tuck should not look like she had a c-section in the year 1900 ,then sewn up with whatever was handy. The scar is from hip to hip.
Sad........
WOW!~ FYI after loosing all my flab GASTRIC BYPASS 1999 I too had a tummy tuck.
They kept me in the hospital for 3 days and had drainage tubes coming out of me with strict instructions!
I feel very sorry for this lady and anyone else who doesnt do a serious check on there doc!

Those are not staples left in her. It is just a reddened and scabed area from the staples. This is definately not normal in any way shape or form. No plastic surgery what is performed at a minimum standard will have any gaping holes or dehisence. I am a surgical nurse and these surgical pictures show the wounds probably about 2 weeks old.
Oh my God! That is just disgusting! I hope she sues him for millions! No money can fix that, but she needs to get him where it hurts. That poor woman, that is simply horrific. How could someone else do this to someone?

I happen to be a nurse and Dr. Jan Adams is a horrible surgeon. This is not something that the patient could have done to herself from lack of proper care after surgery. This is caused by a doctor without proper training. What some people don't know is that Dr. Adams was not a board certified surgeon. it just shows that people need to do their research before you allow someone to cut you open and not just hope they can put you back together again.
Yes, this is criminal. Adams and others like him, who have no license to practice such surgeries, yet prey on those trying to achieve what patients perceive as perfection, should get the worst punishment allowed by the law.
On the other hand, those looking into such surgeries should do a little homework on these dr's before allowing themselves to be operated on. Evidently, they were willing to risk it all. I hope this patient filed a lawsuit and won. Can only hope she was able to collect.

TMZ said this picture is from right after the operation. You can still see the staples in. This looks pretty normal for post-operative wounds.
