Had a tummy tuck 2 years ago by a bored Certify plastic surgeon who unfortunately left me with dog ears I need that fix and I need a breast lift but found out I have a complicated cyst or “finroademoma”on my left breast. Updated on 27 Oct 2021: Had my breast lift 2020 it’s been a year and I am very happy with my results. Boobs look great and my cyst was removed
I loved my procedure and I would definitely do it all over again:-) I feel so great with my breast. I got 500cc went from a B cup to a D cup. I got silicone implants. Went with Dr. Jose Luis Salas Martinez. He did an amazing job on me! If u r looking to save money I would definitely recommend going across the border.
I've been doing some homework but would like to ask for personal experiences with Tj and the doctors there? I need to decide quickly as I am planning having this at the end of the month. I have narrowed it down to Dr. Bucio, Dr. Fuentes and Dr. Salas. They all have different suggestions and this adds more to the confusion some say I need a lift and others say I can do with just implants they just need to be a larger size D. I am also scared of the tumy tuck scar and pain. Updated on 9 Nov 2012: Finally booked my mommy makeover with Dr. Salas. It is scheduled for Nov 26, 2012 the date is coming quick. Though the other Dr's seemed great Bucios office did not have great customer service could never talk to anyone after sending my pictures they were to busy to talk to me. Dr. Fuentes would have been my second choice but quoted me a much higher price. Dr. Salas staff was very friendly and helpful they answered all my questions and everytime I called. Dr. Salas has excellent before and after pictures on his website. I was pleased to know that he is very experinced he also has many videos on you tube that helped me make a better decision that I would be in good hands. Updated on 30 Nov 2012: Hello so I finally had my surgery yesterday..I've been very sleepy. I opted not to have a tummy tuck instead I had breast implants and my nose done. The pain is very minimal just uncomfortable. I'm able to move my hands with ease, I am very swollen and bruised on my face. Overall the surgery was not as bad as I thought it would be. The Docotor came to see me this morning and his staff have been great. I decided to stay in his clinic for an extra charge with nurses taking care of me. Now its a matter of time for the final results! Almost wish I would have done the tummy tuck too but was very scared maybe next time.
Worst experience I've ever had! I went to this clinic for a nose job and was really dissatisfied with the outcome and customer service. After the surgery, I began to have breathing problems; I couldn't breathe at night or when I worked out, so I returned to the clinic and voiced my concerns. Doctor Salas' response was so harsh that my boyfriend did not speak for the next two hours. He stated that I required a sinus scan, which I would have to pay for, and that he had no intention of covering the cost, despite the fact that he was the cause of my condition. I also informed him that my nose was not the shape I had requested. I had a large nose, so I tried to make it smaller, but I ended up with an unbalanced nose with a large tip. He did not care or tried to find a solution. After getting the sinus scan and gave it to the team... after three months I never had a feedback from the doctor or a response from them although I called them multiple time. It's a terrible shame since I waited 30 years to have the guts to have this surgery, and I was so excited to finally get rid of a problem that had plagued me for my entire life. I am now in the process to get a secondary rhinoplasty because thanks to him I have now a deviated septum. Do yourself a favor, and find a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor. I am now in the process to get a secondary rhinoplasty because thabks to him I have now a deviated septum.
I am 5'3" 185 lbs. I have had 3 kids and up until three years ago I weighed 135 and had a nice body. I have always wanted a tummy tuck because of the stretch marks and I wanted a some lipo on my legs and some breast implants to even out my body. Now I am 55lbs over my ideal weight due to going through a divorce and depression setting in. I am sharing a picture of what my body looked like 3 years ago and what I look like now :(.....I am beginning the year with a new attitude. I want to do this for me and be confident enough to live my life taking care of me first. I guess the devastation I felt from the divorce was finding out that all the time I dedicated to him was something he never appreciated. I put my kids and him first. I think now it's put me first then my kids. If I don't take care of myself and my self esteem is not well then there is no way I can show them happiness. Another thing that happened from the depression was that I rejected any invites for dates. I was just not up for any of that. My friends also invited me out but I just wanted to be home laying down. This added to the weight gain. I'm READY for a new me!! P.S. I am not looking for plastic surgery to cure my depression. I already went through the depression and have started to work out again. I just need a boost on getting back to my body (maybe even better) and getting rid of those stretch marks that haven't allowed me to wear a two piece bathing suit. Updated on 23 Feb 2014: I went ahead and went with the Gastric Sleeve done by Dr. Almanza in Tijuana, Mexico. It has now been a year and I am now down to 105lbs. I didn't want to lose that much weight but I am glad I am no longer 185lbs. I am feeling GREAT! I'm having trouble uploading pictures but I will figure it out. I can't wait to share the pictures of what I look like now. I am scheduled for breast augmentation with Dr. Jose Luis Salas Martinez on March 15th, 2014. I keep you all posted. Updated on 10 Mar 2014: Well here is a picture of me now. I'm posting a picture of what my boobies look like before I get my BA. The total amount of lbs I lost since my Gastric Sleeve surgery was 78lbs. I am so happy. I get to eat whatever I want but in small portions. If I want a cookie, I will eat a cookie but I end up eating only half of it and that's enough. Although, I wanted to get a tummy tuck, I am not able to get it because of my work schedule. Tummy tucks require more recovery time. I'm am working on saving up vacation time. Hopefully next year I have enough time to be able to take off of work. Updated on 10 Mar 2014: ?? Updated on 17 Mar 2014: I had a terrible overall experience with him, I did not get the results I was hoping for. He is arrogant and condescending. It does not matter what it is that you are asking for. He will do what he wants regardless. I was rushed out of the hospital (basically kicked out) prematurely, I had to change my flight and ended up paying an extra $80 dollars. They did not give me any after care instructions and his nurse forgot to give me my medication to take home including the antibiotics which I paid them $100 dollars for. I had heard Dr. Salas Martinez removes the tips of noses when people go in for nose jobs even if women tell him they don't want that he will do it anyway. I didn't think that when I asked him for a size D, he would give me a smaller size which he did because he said he was the professional and that Size D's were for Strippers and or [RS bleep] stars. I am not happy with my size. I spoke to the patient coordinator today and she said she was going to talk to him and would get back to me. I don't think I will get my $100 dollars back for the medicine I paid for. I am very disappointed. Updated on 18 Mar 2014: I got an email from the patient coordinator today. She said that Dr. Salas Martinez told her that it would have been too hard to give me a size D and that he will be glad to exchange my implants to a Size D as long as I pay another $2800 dollars. He made the mistake and now he wants me to pay for it. This doctor is very unethical. Updated on 26 Mar 2014: I was asked by the Doctors staff to remove my negative review. Unfortunately, I am not able to do so. This forum is for us to post our experiences and I posted mine honestly. As you all can see, I was very excited to get my surgery by Dr. Salas Martinez even though I had read some negative reviews on him already. I took the chance and my outcome was not ideal. The good things I can say about Dr. Salas Martinez is that my implants look OK as in they look very natural. No one (not even my family) could tell that I had implants. With that being said, I basically look like I have a padded bra on which is what my breasts looked like before WITH a padded bra. I opted to stay at the hospital to get the attention, I may not have gotten at a hotel. I did get OK treatment and the nurse was very very nice to me. My issue with staying at the hospital was that I was told by the Patient Coordinator to schedule a flight back home no sooner than 12pm, the next day, so that they can follow up with me. I scheduled my flight for 4pm. I was surprised by the nurse when she told me the driver (which I paid $120 for the transportation), would be there to pick me up at 8:30. I told her my flight didn't leave till 4pm. She said all the nurses left at 8:30 and that no one would be there later than that on a Sunday. She said I could pay another $100.00 to stay till 4pm or I would have to go rent a hotel room. I was in Tijuana alone. I changed my flight and ended up having to pay an extra $80.00 to change my flight. I was not given any medication to take home, which was an honest mistake by the nurse however, I have not received my money back for the medication I paid for. Updated on 26 Mar 2014: In addition to the above, prior to going in I had asked for a size D. Prior to going in, I was told yes everything yes, whatever I wanted yes. When I met the Dr. as I have said in my previous comments, his demeanor was very arrogant, brisk and disinterested. I was expecting someone to listen to my wants and concerns. I believe this is a general feeling from anyone going to Tijuana from the U.S....The doctor insisted on giving me a size B. If it weren't for the coordinators suggestion that I get a C, I would have ended up with even smaller breasts. I am thoroughly disappointed with my results. I asked the Doctor to re-do my implants to the size I originally wanted. He said he could in a few months however, I would have to pay the same amount all over again. I gave him an opportunity to right his wrong but his selfdom will not allow him to meet me in the middle. I am sure other people have had great experiences with this doctor, i would have posted my review regardless whether it was good or bad. I like others, come to this forum to seek guidance on which doctors to go to from my peers. Mexico has many knowledgeable and experienced doctors just like the U.S. The Doctor who did my Vertical Gastric Sleeve in 2013 (MARIO ALMANZA at Jerusalem Clinic) did an amazing job. His staff was friendly and they seemed genuinely concerned with my health and procedure. From the coordinators, to the drivers to the nurses to Dr. Almanza himself, they all were very caring and attentive. The facility itself is not fancy at all and might scare you a bit since it is in a strip mall but I cannot say enough about the professionalism they all showed. Updated on 19 May 2014: How bad can this get? I went to a surgeon here in the U.S. because something just doesn't seem quite right with my breasts. Now that they are all settled and all swelling has gone done, I can see and feel the final outcome. Here is the verdict. My left breast is more flat and wide and I can feel ridges all around it no matter what position I am in, laying down, standing etc. I can really fee the implant. It feels like saline. The right one is more round and pronounced. This one feels more natural and no matter how much I squeeze, I cannot feel the implant. This has been bothering me so I went in for a consult to a Plastic Surgeon here in Arizona. The Doctor basically confirmed my suspicions. It is very possible that I have a saline implant on one side and a silicone one on the other side. The worse part of it is that they are different type of sizes. Dr. Salas Martinez may be using left over implants and trying to match them up. This doctor is a nightmare!!
Hello everyone, im so exited to finally get rid of my “Bat Wings” next week, my surgery is scheduled for April 26, 2018 i will fly down to Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Salas at Evoclinic. I am 9yrs post-op Gastric Bypass (Lost 160lbs) & 1yr post-op TT, Lipo on back and inner thigh’s w/BBL. Im so ready & exited for round 2, Updated on 11 May 2018: Its definitely not what i was hoping for... i just send an email to my surgen and hopping he will get back to me... i hate how they look... i know im still super swollen not to leave out how both my arms are spitting stitches like crazy! But im sort of regretting getting them done. I have strongly have come to the conclusion that I AM A VERY BAD HEALER! Updated on 4 Jun 2018: Well my PS did get back to me and i went down to Tijuana Mx. to see him that same week he checked them out and remove remaining stitches (Started spitting out stitches at 2weeks post op) he said unfortunately im that “rare case” that happens not so often to patients that get this procedure done. (SUCKS FOR ME BIG TIME) im really bummed and regret getting it done... he told me it will take 3-4 extra weeks to completely heal but have a even bigger scar than usual... im keeping them dray as much as i can and wrapped up in Ace bandages, & compressed with my surgical garment. I till have a big hole on both arms but look and feel better since my visit.... i will keep updating as i get progress. Updated on 20 Jun 2018: Yup... still pretty open on my left arm but my right one is doing much better, scar looks awful and i know im still super swollen, but i know i still have excess skin... if i was 75% regretting this surgery now for sure im at 100% regret! I hate it...
So I have been wanting a boob job sonce I was 16 years old. That was obviously not an option. I always knew I'd do it, but I never knew when. When I turned 18 I started considering it now that I was an adult but still I did not have the money. 3 weeks after I turned 18, I found I was pregnant. Ok no problem. Had my baby and 3 weeks after I turned 19, I was done breastfeeding my daughter. So I said ok time to get my boobs done because this insecurity is seriously KILLING me. I started looking into doctors in the US and I decided it was too expensive. So I started looking for doctors in Mexico as I know of a lot of real life ppl who have gone and had successful procedures in Tijuana. So I did all my research and contacted Dr. Fuentes. He gave me an estimate of what I would probably spend of about $4000 for everything. He said I would have to wait 3 months AFTER I stopped breast feeding. I was really considering setting a date but then what do you know, 2 weeks after that conversation, I find out I'm pregnant AGAIN. To be quite honest, I was happy but I was very devastated. I was so depressed over my appearance especially after having a baby and I was going to do something about it finally. I had even just lost all my pregnancy weight and weighed less than before I had ever been pregnant. I really did not want another baby but I really feel like my son was given to me for a reason. So I just had him in November 13 and I stopped breastfeeding him about 2 weeks ago. So my journey begins. This time I WILL be getting on the copper IUD. I figured well at least I'm done having children at a young age and BEFORE I get any procedures done! So I am happy about that. I am 20 years old and I was also happy to find that Dr. Fuentes said there is no age rule to getting silicone. I want silicone implants and here in the US that is not an option until I'm 22. Honestly there is NO WAY I can wait another 2 years. I am seriously THAT insecure. And it hurts really, really bad :/ Dr. Fuentes got back to me quickly and he answered all of my questions and he was not rude about it. I had my mind set, I was going with him. BUT then, my cousin went to Mex. to get his butt done. He went with Dr. Jose Luis Salas Martinez in Tijuana. I asked him about his doctor and he had me reconsidering. He told me practically all of his girlfriends got their boobs done by him amd they look good. So I googled him and his info came up just as my cousin gave to me. Everything that I've found on him regarding BA is all positive. His before and after photos are amazing and breast augmentation is actually his specialty. So I am 99% sure I'm going with him as my cousin has actually been there before and offered to go with me. So right now is a waiting game. I'm just waiting until it's been 3 months since I stopped BFing. I'm hoping to get it done like in late april/early may. I am so excited, if I could I would do it tomorrow. It's now february and I will be counting down the days as well as making ALL of my preparations. I'm still waiting on a quote from Dr. Salas. (barely emailed him today) Updated on 12 Feb 2014: So I'm just having a bad day. I'm just feeling real ugly and not womanly. I HATE this. I wish I could have my surgery tomorrow!! Paulina (part of dr. salas' staff) has not replied to my last email asking about a possible areola reduction. She's really helpful and friendly, we had been emailing back and forth but maybe she just forgot or something. I will email again and update when she replies. Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Paulina emailed me back and asked if I had made a decision, I told her yes but I was also thinking of an areola reduction. She said it would cost $500 more. Original quote was $3,100 for everything and I said YES! so now it will be $3,600. Now I just need to confirm my appointment. I cannot choose a day between 4/21-4/24. I need to choose one of those days. I'm kind of thinking that the 22nd will be the best day for me. I'm also having a hard time deciding if I'm going to want 475cc high profile silicone or 500cc high profile silicone. It's such a hard decision! I still don't know how I want the placement either. I kind of want that like big boobs round balloon (blew up) somewhat fake look but not where they're falling off my chest. If that makes sense. Maybe he will insert then through my areola because I want the areola reduction as well at the same time so I guess we'll see. I'm 5'1 and 120 pounds. I don't want it to look like I just busted out at the top but at the same time, I kind of feel like 500cc would benefit me more in the long run. Decisions, decisions. I'm 2 months away and I am getting so excited :/ I wish we didnt have to wait at least 3 months after breastfeeding. I would go tomorrow if I could. lol. Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 16 Feb 2014: Updated on 23 Feb 2014: April 22nd! Ahh cant wait. Lol. I called and unfortunately paulina had not showed up to work that day but the woman i spoke with just said to tell her the date and she would leave a note for paulina and that she was sure it would be available as it is 2 months away. Now I'm just waiting for paulina to call me back on monday morning to confirm because she is the only one with Dr. Salas' schedule. Updated on 23 Feb 2014: I've been doing a LOT of research and I've found that women with my stats look good with 550 hp silicone implants and most are more than pleased with the size and some have even wished they went bigger. I do not want to get booby greed so i think I will stick to wishing for 550 high profile silicone. I'm hoping to go partially under the muscle, through the areola. I hope that's possible. I would like to be at least a D. I want them to look big when I'm naked or in a bikini but I want to still be able to downplay them at times. My stats are 5'1, 119 lb. chest is 34', rib cage is 31', waist is 30', and hips are 36'. Current bra size is 34A/32B. Breast width diameter is 16 cm. Do any of you ladies have any knowledge if this is all possible/a good idea? I am not going for a natural look by the way. Oh and I actually WANT some side boob too. lol Updated on 23 Feb 2014: I dont want them to look like two balls just straight up placed inside my skin. I want some fat to conceal them Updated on 25 Feb 2014: For April 25!! I told Paulina that I would like 550cc high profile but I also told her I wanted to be at least a D and she said I might have to go a little bigger but I hope not because it's 300 dollars more if you need an implant bigger than 550ccs. Lol yes, I'm a cheapo and I'd rather not pay $300 extra just to go a little bit bigger. 600ccs is the max that I would ever even go so yeah IMO not worth it. I'm going to leave the night before because it takes 8-10 hours to get to TJ from where I live. I'll arrive in mex the morning of and do my consultation, have surgery, and go spend the rest of the day/night at the hotel, then go back to the clinic the next morning for my check up and head home! Yay! I can't wait! Updated on 3 Mar 2014: I bought some zip up sweaters and sweats from hollister for when I'll be lounging around after surgery. they are soo comfy. anyway, im thinking why not just buy everything I need. surgery is 7 weeks away. lol am i getting carried away, should i just wait until I'm a little closer to my surgery date? Updated on 8 Mar 2014: I'm so happy that she let me know that he does under the muscle as well as over. I wanted partially under but oh well I can live with under. I just DONT want OVER. I mean we'll find out for sure at the consultation but I was not hoping for over because I feel that they LOOK heavy. I just hope that I'm not anemic, I tend to be slightly anemic when I have blood tests taken. Updated on 19 Mar 2014: So all of a sudden, I'm seeing bad stuff about dr. salas? the whole reason why i chose him was because he has done boob jobs on my cousins friends and they all look really good. i also love the work on his website. i did look through real self and i ultimately decided that even though i read one bad review on him, that review was a nose job. im not getting a nose job from him. now i have discovered more bad reviews. im not sure right now. i already paid $100 to secure the date but i would rather lose $100 than be disappointed about my results. i have a look that im going for and i have wanted this for soo long and i have been coubting down. im 5 weeks away but im starting to think of going with dr. jacob freiman in miami. one of his patients on this sight has AMAZING results. i want the big fake boobs look andbi want ti be at least a D. im really hoping to get 550 cc high profile silicone implants under the muscle but if he doesnt like D's and wont even consider what i want then i think i will be looking elsewhere. i know ultimately the surgeon will do whats best and he knows more than i do, but i want him to give me the look that I like , not what HE likes. I already contacted dr.freiman and am awaiting a response. i will see what happens. Updated on 22 Mar 2014: I'm sticking with my doctor. Paulina and I talked and she expained things to me and I COMPLETELY understand. When getting cosmetic procedures, you have to have realistic expectations and consider factors other than size. It sucks but oh well. I'm HOPING to be the size I want but if it cant happen this time, then I understand. I wouldnt want ugly stretchmarks on my boobs and then still be unhappy with them. And that wont ever go away, thats something that you can never really get rid of so if my boobs are too small to be made into D's right now, then I will accept that and go back for a bigger implant if I want after time has went by and my skin has been able to stretch more to fit a bigger implant. 4 weeks away, keeping my fingers crossed. Updated on 25 Mar 2014: But I guess heres an idea. I like it :) lol. excuse messy room Updated on 7 Apr 2014: Ok so surgery is a little over 2 weeks away and now I'm freaking out that its not going to happen. I was told that we would do blood work in mexico and that if it came back that i was anemic or even slightly anemic, the doctor would not operate on me. I tend to be slightly anemic when I get blood tests done :/ so i dont wana go all the way over there then be anemic so i said no I'll just make an appointment and do a blood test here then send the results to the doctor. I am PRAYING THAT MY RESULTS DONT COME BACK DAMN ANEMIC !!!!! lol. i have been looking forward to this for way too long now and i will be so hurt if i have to postpone. should i take iron pills? my blood test is tomorrow like in 25 hours from now. Lol. Updated on 8 Apr 2014: ok so now i think i might have a cough coming on. my throat started hurting this morning when i woke up -_- i hope it doesnt turn into an actual cough and if it does, i hope it goes away by surgery. i will be gargling with salt water. lol . but damn everything is going wrong! well i have the blood work today i reeeeally hope it comes back fine. and that i dont get sick either. lol, wish me luck! Updated on 8 Apr 2014: I saw my regular doctor and he said he would order bloodwork for different things. So I have to fast. I ate today so I have to wait until tomorrow. the lab opens at 7 and just my luck i work from 7 to 1 then it takes 24 hours to get results back so ughhhh i wont know until thursday :/ and im going to have to starve tomorrow !!!!! >:| but oh well the time will pass and ill be doing the test tomorrow i guess Updated on 10 Apr 2014: IM NOT ANEMIC !!!!!! yay omg im sooooo happy i can still get my surgery and no rescheduling !!!! yes i cant wait !!! in 2 weeks i will have new boobies FINALLY yay omg i wana cry . lol im so happy guys ;') Updated on 11 Apr 2014: I dont know if it hit me , ive just been keeping it in my head like im guna do it, time is guna pass, im guna survive all the suckiness and pain but then I'll be happy. Now im feeling sad :/ i just read a review about the patient waking up in the op room all alone and crying and it reminded me of when I had surgery to take out my appendix. i woke up and i didnt see anyone around and i couldnt move or talk and i was really thirsty my mouth and throat was soo dry it hurt . so i just started crying . i was crying because i was in pain and i felt scared because i didnt see anyone around and idk i just felt very sad and uncomfortable. i really hope i dont feel that way at all after surgery. i hope one of the female nurses/staff are in my sight when i wake up. im excited but i just want to get it overwith . its guna suck knowing that for one night, i will be like 12 hours away from my babes and for that one night there will be nothing that i can do to see them :/ surgery is 2 weeks away . i know that i am making the right decision FOR ME. i just need this time to pass already :/ Updated on 24 Apr 2014: Havent updated in a while, I've just been busy and to top it off I lost my phone. I had SO MUCH info and pictures on it, directions to tijuana and everything. Now I'm just leaving on my way but I will be using the gps on my friend's phone up to the border and after that, i remember how to get there. lol yes, i memorized the way from the border to the doctors office. Last week i bought supplies: gauze, front close sports bra, laxatives, tylenol, neosporin, wet ones wipes, bromelaine, bio oil, coco butter and umm yea i think thats it. We will be driving all night to tijuana, arrive around 6 in the morning and go to the clinic, have consultation, do operation, then check into the grand hotel tijuana (right next to docs office) and rest for the night, then the next morning (saturday) i will get checked by doctor and head home and i should be home by saturday night. Wish me luck! Updated on 25 Apr 2014: 2 hour old boobies. Unfortunately i cannot show u guys real results until tomorrow because i have to wear these bandages until the morning then they will cut then off but heres a preview . Lol . Trust me, they are NOT this big, i have a LOT of bandage and gauze and there are ice packs under so yeah. Lol Updated on 25 Apr 2014: Im currently at the grand hotel tijuana. Its an ok place its not like a 5 star hotel but it is pretty nice. I feel fine right now pain is a 4 on a scale of 1-10. It mostly only hurts when i like move or stretch but if im just sitting or laying then it does not hurt. I got 550 cc high profile implants placed OVER the muscle via inframammary incision. I had originally wanted under through the arreola bubi decided not to get an arreola reduction because i was told that they would stretch anyway. I only got a quick peek at them after being stitched up but i could not take a pic (my friend was not there and i had no camera or phone) from what i saw, i am pleased. I dont mind then being over the muscle, the last few days before surgery i had started thinking to myself that i didnt care whether they were over or under. So far, im happy and comfortable. I even woke up while they were still operating on me and i was talking with the nurses! Lol. I was only under local anasthesia Updated on 26 Apr 2014: So they took off the bandages but i didnt get to get a pic. Were in the car right now on our way home. This pic isnt the best though, i will post better pictres when i am home. So far im pretty happy Updated on 27 Apr 2014: Ipod had died and i forgot to post pics when i got home. Here they are Updated on 27 Apr 2014: Pretty good. The pain is minimal and it only hurts if i move/stretch around. I was back in the saddle the 1st night i got home if u know what i mean. I hadnt seen my kids dad in 2 whole days! Lol sorry tmi we just missed eachother. I know some might wonder cause i sure did. Lol. I just took it easy and tried not to stretch my body much. I have been eating like a pig tho :/ idk why im so hungry. And especially with no gym, im going to get fat D: i already feel pretty bloated but i just keep taking my laxatives. As far as my results, im hoping that my skin will loosen a bit. It feels tight right now and my boobs are hard. Lol. Is that normal for over the muscle? Besides that, im pretty happy Updated on 5 May 2014: So everything has been goong pretty good so far, i was pretty happy with my results until now. I was taking pictures to track progress last night and now i see that one boob is considerably bigger than the other. They look wierd and funny and im not happy anymore :( im self concious about my boobs again :( im hoping that the doctor is willing to work something out with me. I know i always had one boob a little bigger than the other but i mean this is a very significant difference, im almost under the suspicion that a smaller implant may have been used in the smaller breast. Im pretty sad now but im hoping for the best that the doctor will fix it or at least meet me halfway on something Updated on 27 May 2014: I got a new job with A LOT of hours so ive been busy but i just thought i'd update for anybody considering this doctor. So by now, the difference is not SO noticeable like in the other pictures and at this point, i believe that the same size implant was put in each breast but one was already bigger than the other and other PS's have even said that BA amplifies that. So i dont think the doctor did anything wrong. I mean i dont know why he didnt just put a bigger implant in the smaller breast, but whatever i was planning on additional surgery to go bigger anyway. Also i want to get an arreola reduction because i feel like they got bigger immediately after surgery. Im not exactly unhappy with my results although i dont think theyre perfect. At least i have big boobies now which was the whole point. Lol. Im not unhappy or happy, im satisfied but i do still plan to get more surgery. Im hoping to get my butt done by the emd of this year as well so i will start my journey with that as soon as i get other stuff in my life taken care of :) Updated on 28 Jun 2014: I am now 2 months post op and i do like my results. they are not PERFECT but i dont hate them. i am ok with them and satisfied for the most part. the only thing really that i dislike is the asymmetry. naturally my right side was bigger than my left and breast augmentation makes that more noticeable. the thing that frustrates me about that is the fact that all the doctor had to do was use a bigger implant on the left side but he didnt. that would really be my only big complaint. i should have said something before we went into surgery but i didnt because i was just so excited i guess that i forgot to mention it. but still, he is the doctor i dont know why he used the same size implant on already asymmetrical breasts. also, the left pocket was made too large. when im laying on my back, you can see my left implant slowly drop to the side near (too near) my armpit. the right one sits nice and gives me lovely side boob when laying on my back. also, i did get stretchmarks on my boobs and the scarring is there :( but i mean that is something that the doctor couldnt really prevent, its how my own body reacted. the scar i believe is because i didnt start the scar treatment soon enough after surgery. in all, this doctor is an ok doctor. if you are looking for a personal experience and you want to have perfect results that you LOVE the 1st time, then perhaps look elsewhere. i planned to have additional surgery after this so it doesnt bother me much. im just happy that now i feel much better than i did before. my confidence has went up so much. the only thing holding me back from being a stripper is my asymmetry. because of the asymmetry, i am not THAT confident to be naked in front of everyone. lol. but in about a year or 2 from now, i plan to get a "donut lift ", arreola reduction, and bigger implants. hopefully 700R and 750L. or 750R and 800L. i am also planning on getting my butt done hopefully within the next year but we will see if my money makes that an option that soon. lol. Updated on 3 Jul 2014: i think my implant may have uptured or turned over . all of a sudden its a weird shape and it moves a lot into different shapes/positions if i bend over or something it looks very flat and wide. looking down on it i can see the edges or sides of the implant. i havent done anything different and i have not done any strenuous activity. this happened all of a sudden. if i bend over it literally goes flat (sideways) and hang out low (downward) likenif the implant slipped on its side. ughh at this point i am upset and the doctor better do something about this >:|
