Your lips look great. thanks for the detailed description about the discomfort and bruising. I'd like the areas around my mouth done. One side is slightly deeper than they other so this should even it out.
Go with your instincts Farah. If you feel uneasy about having the surgery then why risk it? I've always trusted my feelings. They've never steered me wrong. There may be a really good reason why you don't feel right about doing it. Maybe you have a guardian angel looking out for you. Good Luck ;)
Your work to help these women and their families is wonderful and your anger is understandable. Why can't there be a test to see if a potental patient will have a negative reaction? I was one of the lucky ones and never had complications but my dr never warned me that I could either. There was alot of talk about the dangers in the media that did not sway me however. I still wanted my implants! I was young and took the risk. Something should be done to protect the public health, especially of children but these drs are making millions and people are desperate to have the breasts they dream of. Good luck and GBless.
I went through the exact same thing. I was only 20 when I had my first child and after breast feeding her my once perky breasts laid flat. I was shocked and depressed. Then I was terrified about my husband seeing me that way. Luckily he was very supportive and I knew he loved me no matter what. I had the augmentation 2 yrs after my second child was born and I've been SO grateful ever since. Looks aren't everything but I believe that if you think it will improve your life and you're doing it for yourself, then go find a good Dr.
I have the saline and have been very happy with them for the past 17 yrs. I don't have the rippling luckily. However, I will have a lift in the future and plan to get the silicone because I've read that they feel more natural.
