I am confused at this point. I was originally planning on having surgery in Santiago with doctor Yuseff Serulle because I do have family in the area. After reading some reviews and looking at some picture I feel confused. Please help with any opinions you ladies may have. I would like to also say THANK YOU to every single one of you ladies that have posted it is a great support system.

Ok so I have decided to drop one of the doctors its down to Dr Yily & Dr Robles. They both seem to do wonderful work with TT the incision lines look great. I am still confused I need more information on their Breast Lifts I cant find much I havent even seen one picture of a breast lift not including their website and even then most have implants.

At this point I am feeling confused about the BL. I am trying to find the difference in the cuts and find out more about half anchor cut which is what method supposedly Robles does said by her patients.

Great review?

@ ready for dr what does the ab board do and where can I buy it
  • Reply
Board is for better compression when garment gets loose and keeps stomach flat also to achieve a complete flat stomach. Here is the direct link http://www.annmichellstore.com/detail/index.cfm?nPID=3468 If you have problems with it go to WWW.annmichellstore.com Once you go to the site in the search bar enter the word tabla (board in Spanish) and click search it will show up. There is only one size so if you chose s-m-l doesn't make a difference.

Also I don't recommend buying the per and post vitamedica waste of money read below and you'll see why just a heads up.
  • Reply
It's also a waste if your going to dr Robles she gives you all the pills you need after surgery.
  • Reply
Hi ready. I just had surgery 14 days aho please dont take the vitamedica at least not pre op. Dr robles doesnt like it because it has vit a. She could cancel ur surgery because this increases your chances of bleeding. Robles didnt do my back lipo because of this :-(. Good luck

Hi sexyangel before anything I would like to thank you for taking the time to tell me this piece of information which is very valuable. I had no idea that is the case I wouldn't have spent the money on them glad you caught me in time. Good luck on your recovery hope all is going well for you.

One of the emails Laura sends out in one spot it states to take vitamin A and in another spot it states to stop Vitamin A I asked Laura which is it she said Stop do not take it. Then she said she had to fix her letter.

Thank you boop yes she needs to fix the letter.

Boopie, You are right and I brought that to Lauras attention in February and she said she would change it then. :)

A half anchor would be okay if you are not too saggy. I am 50 and was very saggy, so I needed all the support in a lift that I could get. At least you know in advance. I sure wish I would have known.

I am not going to lie I have been stalking you lol well not like that I ve been waiting to see your BL pictures. I dont know how I feel now honestly and I understand what your saying about the age. How is your incision cut is it like what they call a lollipop or anchor incision? does your scar run under your breast? I m confused by half anchor. Im a little worried as well.
  • Reply
I am working on putting up photos now. In addition to the lollipop, the anchor should run under each breast, but My incision only runs under the left part of the breast.When I get the photos up look towards the ribs and you will notice the skin is sagging. That is because she did not do an incision. As far as one breast being bigger than the other...that is because I already had that problem, but she didn't fix it. If you are even on both sides you will be fine. If you are under 40 a half anchor will work for you, because your skin still has elasticity. Mine did not and I needed the full lift!!!!
