I am back! I've been looking for the time to update my review and give a run down of what I've been up too. One of the most important things is that I survived my ordeal which has now been a long 5 years ago! Since my procedure in Dominican Republic there has been numerous girls that have passed away 1 girl being a local in my town. I strongly tried to make it clear that I in no way wanted to downgrade the doctor that I saw in DR but there is so many circumstances that are happening in that country with cosmetic surgery that I know it is not me. CIPLA (COSMETIC SURGERY CLINIC) has had many complications with many patients so please be careful if that is the location you choose to have your surgery! the country has tried numerous times to shut it down but have been unsuccessful. On to better news I have since researched and have to thank real self for being an environment that actually helps with finding the right doctors and checking credentials and so on. Since the begining of this year I started to research on how to revise some of the work done. If you see my prior post you could see all the damage that was done. Today I am happy to announce that I moved forward with Dr. Fiorillo of Pearl river NY and I could not be any happier. I will make this post a quick 1 but I had a revision of my breast and could not be any happier . The service I received was top notch and worth every penny. The staff very courteous the doctor straight to point to beating around the bush yet so many years of experience I felt so comfortable. Here is a quick before and after.

I have finally beat the bacteria and have gotten back to my life working and excersising I would like to repeat to everyone that it was not my intention to bash the doctor I chose but only to give off first hand experience I still don't feel I got the surgery I wanted but at this point I'm just happy to be alive I have since put on quite a few pounds and am looking more and more healthy I don't condone surgery just please make sure you research I tried to save some money by going to dr but in all reality paid all at the same as I would have in New York for all the time offer on work that's money lost so ladies please don't try to cut corners it's very surreal when a surgeon comes in to your room 2 weeks after surgery and says I sorry ms but we r going to need to remove your implants :( I do feel that some of the transfer of fat to my butt did stay cuz it is bigger then what it was but I have tons of scars which I get sad about but my hubby is the greatest and has shown do all ways that I am a blessing and beautiful inside n out so the scars I could manage with this chapter of my life is done and please of your reading good luck and be safe everyone thanks for helping me stay strong in a time so difficult below I attached a photo of me now out and about dancing and although u could see the form of my body keep in mind that implants removed and about 4 scars but always blessed dolls God bless everyone!!

The grace with which you responded to that comment above says a lot about you. You're one polite lady. Hats off to you. Really glad you pulled through. What you've been through sounds hellish.

Ignorance is bliss! The only thing you could take away from such a tragic story is punctuation? I can't stand ignorant individuals such as yourself. This woman been through hell & back & you felt soooo miserable that you had to comment on her punctuation. GROW ALL THE WAY UP!

Health update

Hi ladies so I haven't been able to check in as much because I've been so sick and :( depressed it's been 4 months since I got this Nasty ass infection and it's so resistant! Someone had wrote me to say they are going thru the same and really felt the need to share the latest I've been going thru... I want everyone to know that I am not just some angry client I am very easy going but this is beyond bad... The picture I am putting up today is choice because this is very real... Since my last blog I've had 2 surgeries to remove cyst in my body... I have 4 holes on my butt which is by far the most depressing thing because I went to dr to make my butt more sculpted and plump then it was but I never signed up for holes! I have dimples and indents now due to bacteria build up ladies again if you go to dr just know they don't have the same regulations as here... I have been going to a plastic surgeon here in ny and words can't describe the difference in professionalism I wish he would have done my surgery from the beginning but I've heard dr is more aggressive so I went so she can really suck out any fat.. I was 165 at surgery and down to 129lbs! This is due to infection it causes weightless but to be honest I'm not made to be skinney I've always been thick so now I just look sick! My poor boyfriend has to sit back and watch this all happen not to mention he helps clean my wounds on my butt because I can't get to them it has really created a insecurity issue for me... Today I am posting a photo of my hip this is a hole that at first started as a knot under skin it got so bad it burst I really don't mean to put up such horrific pictures but I see that woman are really reading my blog and I really hope to help woman with there descion because on real self it says that dra disla is a 5 star doctor ehich is shocking she almost killed me... Hope to update you ladies soon just had surgery and trying to recooperate

Ladies please try to stay in the US... We have standards and regulations for our safety. There is a reason for these rules.. is ur health worth the savings? Go to Miami.....

I really thought about your case and others and felt it wasn't worth it. I do want this procedure but I dont want to be that woman that doesn't make it back alive or comes back with disfigurement. @daisy19, we are not saying that MIami or US doctors are not capable of having a bad patient experience but it happens far less here because of the precautions taken than in other places. If our girls in RS had good outcomes in DR. then thank God and count your lucky stars because you are among a few of the lucky ones. This story isn't about dragging a doctor's name through the mud, it's a warning to do your due diligence in research and making a truly informed choice about the surgeon ur are going to use. Many of us on this site are going with the doctors that are charging the least and offering the most. That's a choice and it's yours alone to make., but understand that it may come with huge risk. Tbabyatl, again thank you for sharing your story and I pray you continue to recover from this ordeal!

Amen....i agree 100 percent. Those drs perform multiple procedures and thats where i believe a lot of it comes from and also the hygeine of the facility is another where as here drs dont do that get one procedure and go back in six months for another give your body time to heal
