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.

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!

What are your next choice for a good cosmetology center?

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.
