Revision with Dr. Carlos Recio on 11/29/19

Finally arrived in colombia for my Scar revision with Dr Carlos Recio. Can’t wait to share my experience and results. Picture below is only 4 days post up. Mind you there almost no swelling what so ever:)

Still using my picture for publicity.

It’s very sad when you are left butchered and marked for life and yet this is the ugly side no one gets to see, people go on IG, search online and we expect Dr.’s to be honest sadly I have come to realize that not many will be honest and mention the many girls needing revisions why not show my scar why not show the ugly side to that? Why not say and fixed what went wrong in the first place?
To this day I’m scared to face that process again I find myself postponing my revision each time I have scheduled I have been traumatized for life. This time around I have a board certified surgeon with lost of experience and yet I’m not able to go through it. Below is the picture of me they keep promoting wish they would show my stomach tho:(

8 month photos post op:(

I have uploaded the pictures, recovery is not easy specially when you have to deal with a psychological aspect of it, for a very long time I have kept my scar hidden, can't even look at it at times, I keep it covered with micro tape,on side it's the most I affected due to the infection that sat in on that side. For the most part it's been really hard having to decide to do a revision due to the bad experience I had with the anestesia..but at this point feeling like you've been mutilated it's something I can't live with. There are indentations where lipo was done specially in my back, when I run my hand thru it is not smooth skin anymore it's hard and feels lumpy...a bad experience over all.

I believe his techniques need to be updated. His medical Tourism staff needs to be more profesional and his publicist needs to stop doing false adverstisement. I have never been contacted by the Dr him self which is odd to me, everything is reflecting on his image I just wonder if he just doesn't care to be known as such.
