I think that if you need time do you. But to expect to get support from all women on here was most definitely not gonna happen. I have ppl constantly commenting to me about having an ugly ass scar. But you know what I say "[RS bleep] um"

@ phat _mommy I absolutely love your attitude and ur comment... so true~ @ Mbones you said it best before!! If you would have seen a blog from one of the girls that emailed you about there bad lipo, then you would have avoided that Dr. P Dont take away the truth about your surgery results! No matter how many times this outcome has happened with Dr. P.. the plastic surgery seeking Drs. need to know. We come on here for the experiences and thats what we need, otherwise this site is useless! Your in my prayers.

Hey love! Please don't delete your blog I thi k your story is really helpful and can be a learning experience for all of us on here. Any surgery that we chose -or for that fact dnt chose- has its risk and complications and I think you are doing the right thing by telling your story in full detail so the women and men who come on here can read this story and then make their decision around the surgery or doctor. No matter what you do in life there will be negativity there is no way around it but if you see below there are soo many people on here staying positive for u and with you, I think that says a lot about the sisterhood on this site. Weather we like to admit it or not we all learn frm each others blog some are more helpful than others but still we learn and make our own educated decisions based on what we have learned. If someone says something you don't like throw them the dueces and keep it moving mami. I wish you the best in your journey and I hope you can come up with enough money to get this revision and be happy, that's what you deserve!! Best luck please keep us posted!!

This is BS. Dr. Pantoja totally fucked up my stomach and face...l was hesitant to say that before but it's true. Now it's going to cost over 10,000 to even try and "improve" all this mess. Every Dr. i've talked to says that I can *try* a revision, but there are no guarantees, and neither my chin or tummy will EVER look the way it was supposed to look had everything gone right the first time. Everyday I feel sick when I look in the mirror, and I feel even more sick when I look at my bank balance. I know that some people have good results with Dr. P but i'm not sure what happened with my sx. Now i'm broke and deformed. I'm not trying to be a debbie downer but i'm absolutely devastated.

The "lumps" are actually pockets of fat that weren't taken out combined with dents where too much fat was taken out... and because in most areas he was too aggressive, I have visible discoloration and scar tissue. I'm sure he'll offer a revision but I don't trust his skills at all anymore : (

Unbelievable how he could do this to you. I understand you not trusting him. I've heard of other Drs wanting to fix bad Drs work so let's pray you get one of those. Have you posted in the "Q&A"? I believe the Drs respond there. You never know if one might do it pro bono . Again so sorry! :-(.

I can have a 6000+ revision to "improve" things through more lipo and fat grafting to the dents but it's never going to look normal

May 21, 2013
Did they tell u what caused this? What might the doctor done wrong? Cant u sue? Or Pantoja do the revisions himself! Or maybe try working out?

Been reading your story, I'm very truly sorry. I pray everything turns around for you in a positive way. Sending you a big hug. Do the surgeons you've consulted have an explanation as to what may have gone wrong?

I had my chin implant removed last monday. My face is still deformed. I need a mentalis muscle resuspenion to fix my chin, another $4000 : ( : ( : ( Oh and my lipo looks the same as before... the dr said I was "healing" and acted like i wasn't getting massages! Nadia said it would go a way but when I showed her my belly, her eyes got REALLY wide and she hesitated before she spoke : ( I miss my old face and body and my $$$$$.

I pray everything become normal for you again, cuz you are so young. But why did u let him touch ur face!? I don't know what u look like, but I can't imagine you needing any facial sx. You gotta have a clear and well thought out mind before going into surgery because doctors (MOST) will talk you into anything. They will agree with you even if they know u don't need it. People seem to forget, cosmetic doctors main priority is MAKING MONEY, not making one happy. But they will sell you the happy illusion tho. Again, I hope all gets better for u

when i saw ur body i thought u looked great. from what i seen you have to give your body a couple of weeks in order to heal. it will be ugly but then it will turn very nice. as for your chin i would sue for mal practice.. i dont think you should of tampered with it your still young but overall you will be fine.. your body is great just let it heal. try working out perhaps.

Hey! Just wanted to let you know I'm praying for you! I've read on many reviews that the lymphatic massages really help with the lumpiness so maybe try that and remember you're still early post op... This may not be your final results!! Keep ya head up!!
