I hesitated for a long time before writing this review, but every day when I look in the mirror, I’m reminded of the outcome, so I feel it’s important to share my experience.
I had liposuction with Dr. Slaninka in 2024. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with the results. My body was left with visible asymmetry, irregular contours, residual love handles, hard lumps, and uneven fat deposits that make it look as though two different people were stitched together. My abdomen was especially disappointing, with visible “islands” of fat that create an irregular appearance.
I was also scheduled to have liposuction of my full back. However, I was never turned onto my stomach during the procedure, so it seemed that the back was only treated from the sides while I was lying on my back. The result reflected that.
What also concerned me was that Dr. Slaninka did not see me before the surgery to examine me or mark the areas to be treated, which I had expected for a procedure like this.
The first hospital experience was also unpleasant. The nurse who attempted to insert my IV appeared very inexperienced, and after several painful attempts I told her it was hurting and making me feel faint. Instead of showing empathy, she replied, “Then why did you choose to have surgery if you can’t handle this?” Thankfully, another nurse took over and was kind and professional, but the initial experience left a very negative impression.
After I expressed my dissatisfaction with the results, the clinic offered me a revision liposuction in 2025 under local anesthesia for a small additional fee. I appreciated that they acknowledged my concerns and offered a correction. During the revision, Dr. Slaninka did examine me beforehand and marked the areas, which was an improvement. He was always polite and respectful throughout both experiences.
Unfortunately, even after the revision, my abdomen was not corrected satisfactorily. Some fat deposits were removed, but others were left behind, and the irregular contour remains clearly visible. Looking at before-and-after photos, it is obvious that the result is still uneven.
Cosmetic surgery is supposed to make you feel more confident. Instead, for the past two years I have avoided wearing swimsuits and constantly try to hide my midsection. Even a one-piece swimsuit doesn’t conceal the unevenness. Honestly, I would rather have had my original body than the result I have today.
While Dr. Slaninka was always polite and nice, I cannot recommend him based on my personal experience with the surgical outcome. For me, kindness alone cannot make up for results that I have to live with every day.
