Robert Wilcox M.D
Plastic And Cosmetic Surgery Center Of Texas Botched Breast Lift and Removal of Implants

I had saline breast implant surgery in 1999 in Singapore.in June one of the implants ruptured. I went to Dr. Wilcox for advice and treatment.
He suggested that I have the implants removed completely and a Anchor Lift done. He assured me that I would be very happy with the outcome and size. He did a great job in "selling" the product for a little more than $7500.00 which I paid upfront.
I had the surgery the 1st week of July and returned for each check-up. I had several surgeries in the past and never developed scar tissue so I thought this would be the case also.
He left the drains in for almost 2 weeks and instead of stitches, he used metal staples.
Once the staples were removed (about 10 days post operation) I began to notice that there was scar tissue forming around the incisions. I pointed this out, but was told, it would get better.
After 3 months I was left with horrible red scars which formed a half circle under each breast and pain. I was also larger on one side and the nipples were not equal and was not happy at the size (I had downsized from a D to what I though would be a full C, instead it was a B).
I complained again and was told that he would do scar reversal and new implants for a cost of an additional $8000.00.
I did not trust that he could perform another surgery, so I declined his offer. He had already be paid and botched the job.
Over the next year, the pain was constant, especially at night. I had several other doctors opinions, but none was willing to point the finger and I sure did not have another $8000.00. I filed a complaint a year later with the Texas State Medical Board, complete with photo's and a statement from the friend who had gone with me for all of the appointments. Even though the Board reviewed the case, they ruled he was not at fault. I am now left with horrible red/blue raised scars that are still painful.
I'm amazed that he is still in business!
