Implants removed two days ago..

At some point along this 3 month journey my plants became infected. I believe it was near the beginning because I have had dishecense and odor as well as over production of fluid , although the doctor denies that I was infected until the end.. He tried to convince me to keep my implants in because the antibiotics were working but I have read too many reviews, doctors reviews and recommendations and facts that if bacteria attaches itself to the implant the antibiotics will clear it then it will come back as soon as you are not taking them anymore.. I was not willing to go into the 4 th month of hell with these things.. Not only was it infected and I was terrified of getting really sick , they also looked horrible.. The more time went by the more the swelling went down.. You could see the full outline of the implant, and you could also see that they were placed about 4 inches too high from my butt crease ... The doctor said that was because he didn't want them to sag and for me to be able to feel the implant at the bottom... So instead he places them extremely high and hopes gravity will eventually settle them enough that you don't see the lines.. I don't know about everyone else but most people get implants because they want instant results or atleast results within the healing time , not results that you have to wait 6 months to a year to have mean while looking like a complete clown! This has truly destroyed my confidence having these reducoulous looking implants in .. I even stopped taking my son to soccer practice or going to the grocery store.. I had to have my husband do all of that not only because of the look but the over all pain I have had.. I'm really happy these are out but very dissapointed that over 15 k was lost and none was refunded.... After this weekend I cannot reccomend anyone to dr widder.. He may do a great job on others bacuase they are not thin enough to see the implant but it was horrible on me. I also recieved my records today and found some nasty lies in them , such as "patient denies signs of infection" .. Hmm let's see I was told if I wasn't sick and running a fever I wasn't infected , I never had a fever and was never sick so I assumed all was well. But I am not a doctor and the smell I had the entire time was also said to be normal... Other comments such as " client denies sex but has hematoma" ... Well of course I deny sex because my husband I and I never had sex until after the first 6 weeks..we stuck with oral sex which was approved by the doc.. And lastly there was a statement in the records from the receptionist who could barly speak English saying that I had argued with my husband saying that" he broke my hole and I hope he learned his lesson because we had to come back in two weeks" .. This was a complete lie! Nothing was ever said like that and we never argue in public let alone a doctors office.. On top of that I am intelligent enough to not say a hole was broken, it's called an incision and it rips!! Wtf! I can't believe someone would clearly post a lie to cover their asses.. Dr widder accused me of having sex every time the hematoma or a problem came up.. It was never thought by him that the problems could have been from an infection or other reasons, just couldn't let the pride go.. So all in all, horrible placement, I professionalism in the staff ( for god sakes, lyn told me and my grandmother about her grey curly public hair today) .. I do not recommend this place at . all

Incision open again cont.

Forgot to also say along with everything else my butt is rock hard and painful again because all of
The fluid sitting in the bottom now.. FML

Incision had reopened

Well when my incision was all healed I went to my last dr appt and was told I had a small cyst on the incision right beside the lSt hole to close.. Dr widder said it may bust on it's own or go away.. Well my luck is always bad so it busted on it's own and so did the freshly healed dishecense hole .. So I'm now back to having a large hole in my incision and leaking the same fluid as before .. I swear this is never ending ! I'm feeling really depressed about this whole thing now.. My incision won't close , my butt used to be full at the bottom but I had nothing at top hence why I got implants, but now they are full at the top ( which I love) but now I look so empty and saggy at the bottom... What else?.. Oh and it doesn't matter if you see me standing straight up, bent over from the side or back, you see the implant everywhere..except when I'm bent over you see this huge rump of implant over the top half of my butt and then it just drops off flat as can be ! I wanted my full butt done not just half of it! I'm to the point I'm probably going to call my dr and ask to have them removed before my skin stretches too much and I'm stuck with saggy skin and no butt..I know my dr says wait , give it time ... But that's not saying it will settle (like breast implants do)..... still think dr widder is a great dr I just think I'm " one of those cases" where it clearly just doesn't work for you.. I really wish there was someone who know what the heck went wrong.
