wow, this is scary! and i'm not talking about the pics! i've read about 3 pages of the previous posts and it really sounds like a witch trial here, they're calling for his head! as a 4th year med student i can say that dehiscence and infection are well known and common types of complications. whats not common is for a doctor to have a flashy web page and hollywood persona, and that may have a little to do with all the negativity directed towards Dr Adams. now we don't know much of anything about the details surrounding kanye's moms death, so its ridiculous to comment at all about who's fault it was. so basically we have people who don't know ANYTHING about surgical outcomes (or those who think their single anecdotal experience apply generally) and are calling for the most extreme measures! (loss of licence, jail, burning at the stake etc etc) Now thats scary.

You couldn't pay me to alter my body. I have glasses and I don't even want to mess with the laser eye surgery. If God had wanted me to look like someone else..he'd have made me that way. I'm 31, with 3 kids. Things are moving south..oh well..things aren't as "perky" as they once were. Who cares..Vicky's Secret bras do wonders. I'm not a pole dancer, or a nudist..so who's going to see it but the man who helped make me this way? Some say "I did it for me"..well..I can assure you..it was for more than themselves. Everyone is beautiful..some just have to search a little deeper to find their beauty!

That can happen to anyone. I highly doubt it had anything to do with the way Dr. Adams operated. My mother had the same procedure done and because she didnt follow doctor's orders correctly the same thing happened to her stomach and breasts. Just leave your body alone.

I've had plastic surgery (a nose job at age 20) and I the reason I know it was a success was no one knew exactly what happened, I just looked better. Plastic surgery is not going to make you Jessica Simpson or Halle Berry, no matter if you want their lips, nose, etc. It can make you a better you, but it can't make you another person.

I think it is odd that most of those who have had plastic surgery look worse after the surgery. I think Joan Rivers, for example, is beginning to look like an alien. I have considered plastic surgery, the LifeStyle Lift, for my face but I haven't done it yet, I seem to keep just thinking about it. My heart goes out to those who have been butchered but I don't think they did their homework before going under the knife.

A patient filling out a questionaire isn't sufficient since some will lie about past histories. A Dr. should require medical records from the patient's insurance companies. This may be intrusive but it should provide much of what the Dr. should know about a patient from drug abuse to allergies. Research your Dr. before deciding. Those Dr.'s that have made the top 10 list are pretty safe bets. In Pittsburgh, I've seen the results of Dr. Hurwitz and his 'full body lifts', he rates in the top 10. His associate, Dr. Agha, is one of very few Dr's I've known to leave an almost invisible scar line... there is a technique to that skill and he's the best I've seen as an intern. I'm not soliciting either Dr., just passing along some information if you're considering a cosmetic procedure.

I've had plastic surgery...tummy tuck, thight lift, breast lift, and lipo. I will say it took me over 3 years just to find the right doctor. You have to research or this is the risk you take. Ask for past clients numbers, speak with them, make sure they are licensed, needless to say DO YOUR RESEARCH. My body looks NOTHING like this!!!! Dr.Fasching in Plymouth, MN is the best of the best!!! I don't have any scarring either!!

To Easy Chuckles and the other people who are not educated in MEDICINE: I am not a Jan Adams fan at all, however when you get an ABDOMINOPLASTY ( tummy tuck) the scar is normally from hip to hip. It is not the same as a C-Section scar. Please refrain from posting "butcher" comments. You have no idea what you are taking about. Many patients go home and do not follow instructions and lift even a couple of pounds.....so please go get a medical textbook before you comment. Thank you

If Joan Rivers gets one more face lift.... her Doctor says she'll be wearing a natural GOTEE!!!!

I've always been a bit of a jock, but three c- sections the old fashion way, and 3 very large babies- no way is the tummy going to go back without surgery (excepting GOD's help!) For the youngsters on the board grow old 'cause everybody sags someday and it does not matter how rich, thin, fat or skinny you are. Enjoy your body however it looks, now! I see all types of rich, thin wealthy, hollywood types who are crack heads, womanizers, and don't have a clue as to how to enjoy life. Save that money and see how the rest of the world lives.

Shouldn't have had the surgery. If multiple specialists advise you NOT to have the procedure done, then maybe you need to reconsider this surgery! Medical procedures and surgeries are traumatic to the human body. People undergo a pre-operative evaluation to determine if the benefits outweigh the risks. Just because Pammy next door had it done doesn't mean YOU can have it done. Tragic event but it's the reality of the profession. Perfect medicine doesn't result in perfect outcomes.

There is no amount of fame or celebrity that removes the risk of disfigurement and death associted with this surgery. There is only the sobering reality that these things can ocur for a very superficial purpose. Mans only natural preditor Pulmonary Embolus(blood clot) is most likely here. It's still reponsible for 20% of all hospital deaths. I believe the surgeon will likey be cleared in this case. No amount of board certifications, paid taxes, or wise driving behavior protects you from this risk as a surgeon. Can you imagine how many surgeons would be out of work if DUI's & bad outcomes were the criteria for losing your license. I'm certain that 2 lost suit is below average for this area of surgery but no one has mentioned this. One extraordinary being has been lost. I can only hope we don't have another unfortunate victim .........Dr. Adams.

Quit celebrating the flesh! Grow old gracefully. That goes for you Oprah...quit with the airbrushed magazine covers. We are inspired by your contributions to the well-being of mankind. How you look is not importatnt. Thanks Robin (ABC) for maing your mess your message. Older women accept your aging gracefully and win the admiration nad respect of your children who continue to go astray.Stll Dr. Adams needs to be punished if he did not discharge his duty to his client.

Just so you know... Dr. Rey 90210 IS NOT even Board Certified.

Why aren't the "talking heads" bringing up all of the above? come on, go on a diet. All of us know that any surgery is risky, I think that kanye does not want his mom's dirty laundry brought up and that is why he is trying to stop Adams from talking. this is a free country and Kanye needs to take a step back, he is not the center of the universe and neither is his mother.
