necrosis and plastic surgery
"If the tissues is significantly lacking oxygen for a long enough period of time, necrosis (tissue death) may occur.
In many cases, necrosis is not a concern, but in some surgeries where the blood supply is interrupted, the risk of circulation problems increases. Examples of these higher risk surgeries include facelifts, tummy tucks, and breast reductions, during which flaps are created separating the skin and its blood supply from underlying structures."
This is a risk to all whom under go plastic surgery and can happen to smokers and nonsmokers. I was a smoker and I had no complications with my surgery. This was a risk I knew I was taking. This does not seem to be malpractice by the surgeon but an unfortunate event for this patient whom took a risk.
The Media Lies and Shows Deceit!
Even though plastic surgery is stupid and unecessary, and even if they clearly state that you shouldn't smoke before hand, no one should have to look like that.
I can't belive someone could say it is her fault because she is a smoker!!!WTF...It really doesn't matter about that, no real plastic surgeon should leave someone looking like that!!! No one should have to go through this.
Its to bad what happened to Kanye West mother. It looks like this woman is a smoker. They ask you to stop smoking at least 2 weeks before your surgery. Looks like she did not and it looks like she started smoking during her recovery. So in someway this is her fault. The reason why they ask you to so this is so your skin can heal properly and faster smoking slows
down the healing process. Again more that likely she started smoking during her recovery time and when you cough with those stitches left in you it will cause soars like that I've seen it before.
It is so unfortunate of what happened to Ms. West and many others who have went under the knife. However, alot of these people have screwed up mindset where they believe that a nip/tuck here and there will make them beautiful. Beauty and perfection is a state of mind. There are plenty of "ugly", "fat", who are just fine with who they are. Instead of worrying about a tummy tuck, breast reduction,nose job and all that other crap, hit the gym, push back from the dinner table and play up the features that you love about yourself. No one is perfect. And if you do decide to go under the knife, how about a little research, a few background checks, and most importantly, (especially with Kanye money) how about a second or third opinion.
SUE HAPPY hmmmm...in the sense that you look at this plastic surgery with intent to sue. Come on really,the doctor AS well as the patient, have a fiduciary agreement to perfect something that was man made-by the body itself. If any human being has the want to cutm stretch and open their skin to re-attach it to a different pelt of skin, for aesthic purpose-then understand and know the risk involved. Do the research. Go to the gym once a week, right?
Think for a second, then do your research. You wouldnt buy a pregnancy test from the dollar store, right? You wouldnt buy a puppy from a puppy mill, right? So tell me why the heck wouldnt you do 10 minutes of research on someone that will put you under the juice, pump you with filler, or de-pump the fill in the butt? None of the above... Ladies, Gentlemen, love your body, drink some organic milk and go to the gym. OCLANEY for life y'all
WTF???? Is this for real??? OMG!!! The marks on this lady is horrible. It's sickening to look at. I can only image how she feels looking at that & feeling it. It's like an invitation to all sorts of infections. She's going to need someone to go back and fix the mess that doctor made. Therefore, I hope she got a decent settlement from the lawsuit because this is totally ridiculous.
I really wish that Ms. West would have made herself content with the way she was instead of insisting on doing the surgery. Sometimes when you reach a certain age, you got to find some way to be happy with who you are & what you have. Even if it hurts.
I almost forgot!
6. If you have a serious medical problem that can harm or kill you during the surgery, a good Dr. may refuse to work on you OR will ask you to go back to your general Dr. and get a MEDICAL CLEARENCE.
Here is some good advise if you or someone you know is looking to get plastic surgery:
1. Is he/she Board Certified? There are many so-called boards, but you just buy your way in as a Dr.
THE ONLY REAL ONE is American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). Their website is: www.plasticsurgery.org
Go on there and find a Dr.
2. Plastic surgery is expensive...so if it sounds like a good deal, RUN AWAY!!
3. Plastic surgery is to IMPROVE your look, not make you look like someone else!
4. A good Dr. will not even touch you if he/she thinks you are a plactic surgery addict or if you bring in a picture to get another persons face.
5. This can happen anywhere, but fake Dr.'s like Adams are a typical case in urban areas. This is because they pray on people who may not have all the proper info. and may not have alot of money. So be careful!!

MY HEART GOES OUT FOR WEST'S MOM AND FOR ALL THE PATIENTS DR. JAN ADAMS HAS OPERATED ON. ALL OF THE PATIENTS WHO ARE STILL AROUND SHOULD COME FORWARD AND LET EVERY ONE KNOW THAT THIS DOCTOR IS NOT WHAT HE PROJECTS TO BE. HOW COULD DISCOVERY HEALTH CHANNEL NOT KNOW THAT HE IS NOT BOARD CERTIFIED?
BY DOING SO, IT EDUCATES ALL OF US WHO ARE STILL CONSIDERING SOME TYPE OF PLASTIC SURGERY.
he is a burcher, that kill that woman who had the breast reduction surgery and the tumi tuck if would it need it a surgery like that i will not do it with these doctor, people are crazy they just, dont check this people out good and she should it had these done in a hospital,like palmetto hospital.
WHY IS EVERYONE BLAMING THE PATIENTS?? SHOULDN'T ONE HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSUME COMPETENT MEDICAL CARE FROM A PERSON WHO IS AN MD? WHY AM I THE FIRST TO QUESTION ADAMS' QUALIFICATIONS AS AN MD? FROM THE MOST RECENT INFORMATION, NOT ONLY ARE HIS SURGICAL TECHNIQUES ATROCIOUS, BUT HIS MEDICAL PROCEDURES APPEAR SUSPICIOUSLY LIKE THOSE OF A MEDICAL SCHOOL WASHOUT. IT IS NOW COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT HE IS NOT BOARD-CERTIFIED AS A PLASTIC SURGEON, BUT HOW DID HE GET ANY KIND OF LICENSE TO PRACTICE ANY KIND OF MEDICINE. OR IS "DR" JAN ADAMS ONE OF THOSE "PC MD'S"?
THAT HE IS A FAVORITE OF "DOPRAH" IS NOT SURPRISING. THAT HE FOOLED HER IS EVEN LESS SURPRISNG!
THAT HE HAS A DUI, ASSAULT CHARGES, A HISTORY OF SEXUALLY INAPPROPRIATE PATIENT CONTACT, NUMEROUS MALPRACTICE LAWSUITS,-TO NAME A FEW- SHOULDN'T COME AS A SURPRISE TO ANYBODY.
DISCOVERY IS, NO DOUBT, EMBARASSED BY THE GAFFE. IT SERVES THEM RIGHT! PATRONIZATION IS STUPID--AND DANGEROUS. HAPPY KWAANSA....
