Hey Guys,
This is my first review so I want to share my journey about going to Colombia for Surgery.
I have breast implants 275cc high profile, done in greenwood village in 2009 by Dr. Millard - fantastic job and very natural mentor cohesive gel.
I also currently have 275cc type 3, size 2 round semi-soft solid silicone buttock implants done in Beverly Hills by Dr. Chugay in 2012. (I do not recommend this doctor)
My stats are 5'9" - 130lbs, 34D-26-37 currently
So I have been researching Doctors for sometime and have decided to go with Dr. Juan Diego Mejia in Medellin. I originally want to get BBL done in DR with with Dra Duran or Dr Molinas but it is a pain getting a response back from them about anything and took more than two weeks to just get a quote. I also was informed that because of my current implants I would not be able to do full BBL.
Ladies let me tell you, getting butt implants is no joke, I didn't want to change them out unless it was absolutely necessary but I would like more butt than they are giving me now. I would also recommend get some sculpting Lipo if you plan on getting them, it makes a big difference.
I originally only wanted the liposculpture to add to my hips and bring that waist in but the more I researched on implants I just know my outcome will make me happier. The implants you get in the states are not natural like they say. My butt is very firm to the touch and does not move. I am an avid runner so I get away with it by saying 'strong muscles' but getting them replaced with cohesive gel butt implants will definitely make me feel more feminine again. The FDA has not approved them in America as 1. It takes money to bring it in front of the board and 2. No one has gone out of their way to present all the up to day research & put time and effort getting it in front of them.
The manufacture my doctor will be using is polytech cohesive gel buttock implants, they are resilient and double layered as well as gel that will not leak if rupture occurs. They are made in Germany and individually tested before they are shipped.
I will also be getting full abdomen/back/under butt cheek ultrasound Lipo and abdominal etching. I have this stubborn fat under my chin and am taking this opportunity to get that Lipo out as well! I am looking for fat to be transferred to my hips and lower butt thigh area just for that upside down heart look and a natural result.
I am opting for 500cc implants intramuscular like my current ones.
I would like to get my teeth done while in Medillin, so if anyone can recommend a good dentist, I would appreciate it.
Also my quote includes everything including a two week stay in a recovery house and my airfare. Just minus meds ($250)
Surgery total $5,500
Recovery house $1000 (two weeks)
Airfare from LA $500

I'm also thinking contacting this doctor for cohesive gels butt implants. Thank you for your honest opinion of the silicone types in the US. I have been struggling with this…having never felt one in the body, I just didn't know what to believe. It seems that many find the solids acceptable, but ugh…Who wants to explain to a guy about a rock ass if there is another option? They already think we are crazy for doing cosmetic surgery! LOL Did you find any stats on the polytechs complication rate? Such as capsular contractions, rupture rates? (I know this is what several US doctors have stated is an increase risk.) I would like to know the stats vs the solid silicones. If this is a real problem or only a small risk... Thank you for telling us your story! I can't wait to hear about it!!! You look so great already I'm sure you will be thrilled!!

Do you have Instagram - check out cirujanoplastico1, it's another doc but on his IG he cuts through a cohesive gel implant and shows how it doesn't leak out at all. They are meant to be permanent like the ones in US - so the implants I have are basically like a bouncy ball cut in half, I think they have improve solid silicone in the last few years, my girls are softer than mine but she also got fat transfer over them. I would watch out for the brand Silimed, there is a lawsuit in France that over 100 women have gotten cancer from the casing of breast implants, I think they have recalled everything but check out polytech website on their implants! Hope this helps!

Thank you. It is my understanding that Silimed is essentially the same brand as Polytech. The name changed when they started manufacturing the implants in Germany. The info I've been reading kind of glosses over the reasons the manufacturing change location…One could guess quality control was an issue. I'd like to know the answer because I've been told they are one and the same implant.
I had cohesive gel silimed breast implants years ago but had CC and changed them out. I agree. The demo my Dr showed me sounds like the same one…He had one that was cut in half. Pretty impressive. I guess I am still curious about the actual scientific stats…Is there a higher incidence of Capsular contraction with the cohesive gel type of Butt implant, as claimed? Thanks again for your response.

So I have been researching this - Silimed is Brazilian and currently has an issue with licensing right now, they found trace cotton, etc at the plants. Polytech is a German company no known issues, eurosilicone is based in France and a good product- circle implants only go to 300cc ; what I did find out with all is that they are coated with polyeurathane, which has a 1% chance of capsular contraction, the lowest of all implants including the allergan brand in US which has 20% chance. Here is the scary part, polyeurathane can be broken down over time in the body and absorbed which can possibly cause cancer... They will not know for sure until 25-30 years pass inside a body to be sure....

Change of plans - thinking about Dr Plazas in Cali
Sxdoll487May 27, 2016
Hi guys, I should have already had my surgery - I have been losing sleep over choosing the 'right' doctor. I am 90% on Plazas - I am looking for aggressive Lipo and I need good fat transfer to my hips. There is another Dr Harold Paz who apparently did joselyn cano and she has been my wish body for a while now - you can see both work on IG via @plaztique and @hermajestyrecoveryhouse ; I am contemplating changing out my implants and possibly just going for BBL just so I don't get a ridiculous look...

Im contacting dr. Mejia. Did he recommend the recovery house or did you ask for a quote from the recovery house separately?
May 28, 2016
Yes he recommends a recovery house that looks beautiful! He send you all info with quote

I had a roommate when I went to cali that went back for another round because she wanted the bottom filled and she loved Dr. plazas she totally recommended him he did aggressive lipo on her and left her amazing. Her first round in cali was with dr.henao which i personally don't recommend I was going for him and I switched. but your quote and ur ticket is great. my ticket was almost $900
July 30, 2016
Hii! I was thinking about Henao and just wanted to ask why you don't recommend him if you don't mind me asking.. You can message me if that's easier- thanks!!
