Replacing Recalled Inspiras with Upgraded Inspiras Same Size!! 650 UHP Smooths
WORTH IT$1,535
So I had my appointment yesterday to see about getting my recalled implants replaced. It went great!! My awesome surgeon didn’t try to convince me to keep them but rather immediately said, “Let’s get those out!” He is only charging me for anesthesia plus for the OR (had his own).
Also, found out today that Allergan is covering the implants plus an upgrade I wanted to make ( from Inspira Responsive to Inspira Soft Touch) because they are thicker silicone so I’m hoping for less rippling! They are covering both since I’m keeping the same size. 650 uhp! They weren’t aproved for use in USA for use until after my last surgery or I would have gotten them then. So looks like it will just cost about $1500!!
Surgery set for 19 August with Pre Op in a couple weeks!! He’s keeping my capsules in to support the new smooth implants!!!

Quite a few ladies from when we were "RealFriends" went to Vath. They spoke highly of your PS & his revision policy. Glad your getting your recalled implants out. Are you staying with UHP or going with something a tad wider? I know you stated the same ccs and firmer, just didn't know if that changed the profile or anything? I love my mod+ bc their a tad wide but I have a large BWD, it gives me great cleavage and great projection! I get double duty out of my girls. I can hide'em if I want or display'em if I dare, LOL! ;-)

Hi, I'm staying with the uhp and still getting the Inspiras! They will be smooth and be the Soft Touch rather than the Responsive. I can't wait to see and feel them! Dr. Vath already moved my boobs closer together when I had my revision which I'm thrilled about. My natural small boobs had a big gap.

Ok I looked back and see what your talking about how he moved your boobs closer together. Def see why your getting the same implants, makes sense. You had a bluish/turquoise leopard print dress on in an old review, omg where did you get that....LOVE it!

I just looked back to see what dress to were talking about! I got that dress at Venus almost 2 years ago. I originally it to wear to a luau at Disney World then actually ore it agin this Saturday to my company summer party!

Had My Pre Op!!
I had my pre op this afternoon! It didn’t last long but I signed consents, took pictures, got question answered as well as I finding out what I can and can’t do. Not lifting weights or 2 weeks is going on hard! I go every other day now. :-(
Originally my surgery was scheduled for 9:30 but now it‘s noon. We have to be there at 10.
I’m super excited and got my prescriptions filled tonight!!

Hi. I also have the recalled implants. Did you say that Allergan is covering the cost to have them replaced? The last I heard was they were not unless you had already developed the cancer. I have an appointment with my surgeon on September 9th to discuss removal and replaced with the smooth. Would like to know who to contact about this to get more information before my appointment. Thanks!

Hi, I was under the same impression as you about them only paying if you had the cancer. I was stunned and thrilled when the patient coordinator told me it was being covered! They even said it would cover me upgrading my implant since I'm getting the same size. I thought I'd need to pay the difference between the Responsive and the Soft Touch but no!! I'm super excited because with the implants being covered plus my awesome dr only charging for the anesthesia and his OR it's super affordable! That saved me over 6K! I hope you get a good deal too! Let me know when you find out. I have my surgery this Monday!
August 17, 2019
Thanks for the information. I did find that last night after doing some research. I will definitely talk with my surgeon about it. Do you have to get the same implant size before it is covered? Good luck with ur surgery. Let me know how it goes and I will also keep you updated. Thanks again!

I was told that Allergan was covering the upgraded implant since I was the same size. So I'm guessing if I wanted the upgraded implant in a different size I would jut have to pay the difference between the two. I think it was just going to be a couple hundred more. When is your appointment? I'll try to update my review Monday after surgery but we will see :-)
August 18, 2019
My appointment is sept 9th. Yes, definitely let me know how it goes! Good luck!

i read today allergen will cover some of the costs but not the anethesia (sorry spelling!!) im going to hit my surgeon with that one even though the post was american , yes please keep us updated. I want a different profile, ive never been happy with mine x
August 20, 2019
Yes they didn't cover the anesthesia or the OR. I hope they will cover it for you. My dr also didn't charge his normal fee!
August 20, 2019
ive complained direct to the hospital first as I hold them responsible, he wants 5.2k to remove and replace with the same size but smooth. If no go, im going to take it further, - thanks for the reply and please please keep us updated :)
August 21, 2019
That's not cool if you get charged so much to have them replaced.
