The bad result is becoming more common place following plastic surgery and the Manchester Clinic finds that 25 % of our new patients come to us for corrections. The cause for this is simple. Eighty percent (80 %) of all plastic surgery done in the United States is performed by non-trained, non-certified board physicians. There are over ten false boards pretending to guarantee competent plastic surgeons. 60 Minutes, Date Line and others have all had programs on this growing problem. Reviewing popular magazines and T. V. shows this problem is not confined to the average citizens. Rich and famous people have fallen prey to these unscrupulous individuals.

Poor Breast Surgery
