I continue to have pain and discomfort . Which right from the start I told the doctor I was having after sending me to get n MRI of the left cheek which is the one that bothers me I was told everything looked fine n the pin would go away . But after 2.5 years I’m still having pain and not only that but my implants on the left cheek moves a lot more then the right and when I bend over you can totally see the implants just sitting on my muscle. I had a follow up consultation with Dr. shifrin and right away I could tell he didn’t care to listening to my concerns. He told me there was nothing he could do to fix it. That he didn’t know how to fix it that that just the way that implant settled in my body. All he could do is take them out if I wanted!!!!!!! Wtf ????? Really?? I even mentioned maybe the pocket of the implants was to big or had stretched out since I got my breast and my ass done at he same time I had to sleep on my side and that was the main side I slept on . But right away he said no that wasn’t possible. That was it consultation end. Honestly I knew going in there were risks and I could have issues but what I didn’t know was that once I I’d have n issue my doctor was going to dismiss me as it’s my owns body fault! I felt like when your. First time patient he goes on me beyond for you but once he was to fix a problem he doesn’t want to here it an tells you why you don’t want to hear so you can leave and find a different doctor to correct the issue!!! I’m not the only patient that has felt this way once you address something you don’t like he tells you it looks “ fine” . Or he doesn’t see a problem or like he told he doesn’t even know how to fix it !!!!!! Wow .. so now I’m in looks to find a surgeon that “knows” how to correct this problem!!!

I’ve went through the SAME thing on the SAME side , n I only did my butt so was on my stomach at all times , he did not care n told me he can’t fix it yet he’s board certified and blames my body , n he’ll only take them out , making me lose all my money and look botched , clearly this is his scam … 2 years since my surgery , one year since my revision where he did absolutely nothing n I still have pain , it’s so saggy and visible on ONE side and mine are supposed IN the muscle…. It’s so sad and disrespectful that we have to go through this.

I'm sorry you had the same experience. I am still looking for a competent doctor to get mine corrected, but I'm scared to have another disappointing result.

Office follow up

Today I had my 5/6 week follow up with Dr.Shifrin . He removed some stitches from my breast that hadn’t dissolved. He did everything looked good still some swelling to give it time. I was cleared to go back to working out n to wear regular bra . I did buy biocorneum scar cream to apply in all my incisions . He also said I could start sitting on my butt with out the pillow. I’m a bit scared to do so but will see. I’m back to feeling myself 100% .
