I still get not get over the fact that so little chance has happened in my body after the high investment I put on it, I had two consutations these past two weeks firt one with dr salhauzer who advise me to wait 8 months before considering a revision and quoted me $6999, and the second consultation with Dr Salama who basically said the same, full recovery time post bbl is one year and at this point his advise my best bet is time, lose some weight to assess what will be left over and return to see him within one year. I agree with them but I'm afraid of loose weight and do not have nothing left to transfer, it is a hard decision for me, doctors said it is hard to tell what is fat and what is inflammation at this point because fibrotic tissue is been formed. I see a lot of girls getting a revision in less the one year post op I'm curious to know what was the results. Dr Medieta said I could have another one anytime after 3 months mark, but I cannt trust him anymore and on top of it quoted me way to high, it makes me feel suspicious. Girls please any advise...

Girlfriend, my thighs..... If it was not for the bruising on thighs after Sx, I would not believe I had liposuction done on thighs. My thighs are huge. Surely they were not this big. I talked to Dr Saulzer, sent pics. He said he saw my concerns but needs me to see him in person. I just left Miami. I can't keep going back. He never said anything about weight loss or waiting a year. Hmmmm....

I feel the same about my thighs extensive bruises but not change at all...dr saulzhauer said that because I told him I'm still 15 pounds extra which was recommended by Dr M
November 17, 2014
I must be honest. I do see some change with my body & shape but when I see these other women on here paying less than 1/2 of what I paid & their results, I feel jealous. The changes with my body is not $10000 worth of changes. Plus I'm kicking my butt in the gym 5 days a week.

I said the exact same thing to Dr Mendieta and his staff, we paid for what we did not get, it is ashamed, the rule: u got what u pay for did not apply there
November 17, 2014
No one from Dr Mendieta's office has contacted me. That's strange. If he did want to fix his mistakes, he should have just told me. I'm gonna humor myself & call them tomorrow to see what BS they are gonna tell me. He saw the issues I'm having & he knows he only gave me that lousy 480cc. So you are gonna start dieting? I needed & wanted to get this Round 2/Revision done as soon as possible so that I could be don't with this whole process. Paying more money & now having to go alone this time :(
November 18, 2014
If that is your butt in the profile pic it looks amazing ! That's what I want mines to look like .
November 17, 2014
If he did not want to fix his mistake. ( wish RS would have added edit instead of this mess they added, lol)
November 17, 2014
I feel you... It's like they are not responsible for anything, he should be considered we payed for a Bbl no for a simple lipo which was not delivered either. 480 cc if 50% survives still looks like nothing. I'm going to start working out and see what is going to happen.. I feel like filing a complain against him.. cause they do not want to deal with me.. I did not find my money in a trash can if u know what I mean
November 18, 2014
Girlfriend yes. I know exactly what you mean. I did not have unrealistic outcomes. I mean, I'm fatter now than b4 I started this journey. Actually nervous about going thru this again but I would hate to have spent all this money & not look anything like I want. I will say this, it feels good to talk about it. I didn't want to say anything negative at first. Thought it was just me...... This site is good for support :)
November 18, 2014
I am. Sent him my pics. I've been afraid to lose weight just to have to put it back on. I know that even if I lost weight & my stomach got super small, I still won't be happy because I won't have the shape I was looking for. I still will look square which would take me back to looking the way i did before I started this journey which would mean I just wasted over 12 grand & went thru the recovery just to look the way I did to start with :(

I don't understand how these doctors are getting away with so much I have had a tummy tuck that went really wrong and went to another to get it fixed and still looks bad and then they want to recharge you to fix what they messed up
November 18, 2014
One of the reasons why they can get away, basically is due to the fact that malpractice insurance is not mandatory in Florida, so which lawyer is going to go after these doctors that have no insurance?
November 18, 2014
It's horrible this is happening ! Women work hard and pay a lot of money for these surgeries for whatever the reason is and that they are allowing this to happen. I did a tummy tuck a few years back, with Dr.Ricardo Persas and ended up in the er, with my belly button rotting and pouring clear fluids with blood. they wouldn't touch me because the said it was do to medical neglect and they would then be liable. they told me I had a sever infection and they can see it was from something that was left in my belly bottom and until it was removed The infection would continue to come back. I went to a lawyer which told me that same thing and went on to tell me that there's been so many women whom gone there worse than me because of him. They also went on to tell me he was an orthopedic surgeon from Cuba ! How is this possible ! How are they getting away with this ! My infection was extremely high so many women have died, so many women are getting ripped off ! these doctors that aren't delivering what they say I'm new to this site and I love it. I submitted my story today and hope it's up by tomorrow . I want to do a bbl and was considering Mendita and after all these reviews on him I will defintly not going to him ! Thank you ladies for sharing and helping others make better choices .

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Even though I'm not looking to get a BBL - my behind is big enough for me - I have a very dear friend who's searching for a top doc to do her BBL and I was so sure Dr. Mendietta was the go to guy, until I saw this review of yours with pictures included!!!!! Now, I'm not sure I can wholeheartedly recommend him anymore so on to really looking at other docs. I hope that you will eventually get the results and human kindness from the right doc who doesn't promise the world, but produces the results. Also, if you didn't before, I"m sure you'll have several wish pics with you next time. All the best and thanks again for sharing.
November 15, 2014
I did not have the opportunity to show my wish pics to him, the consultations were always really fast.. Thank u for ur comment :-)

Thank you for sharing your journey. I was just about to book an appointment with Dr. M but in all honesty, I think you look better in your before pictures. Your inner thighs aren't touching and you actually have a smaller back in the before photos. I'm surprised he didn't tell you that you didn't need the surgery. You don't look bad now, but you looked better before. That's just my opinion and I'm not a hater. I hope you find a better doctor who can help you achieve what you want. So sorry you went through this. It's so wrong.

She went twice to him with no satisfaction, then went to Cabral in DR . The last one gave her horrible burns no the torso, poor thing
