Breast degression before and after

A couple of weeks after my implants the right breast literally came undone, weather the stiches were rejected, to tight, or my skin not healing it was apparent it needed attention. I was sending pictures every couple of days when Dr Rodriguez said I needed to be seen, so back to Mexico I went.. I was six weeks post OP from my TT,bbl, lipo and of course BL,BA. Upon seeing me the good Dr asked if I wanted more lipo since the first round he couldn't do any around my upper and lower abs due to blood circulation conditions. Of course I said yes, and while he was at it could be not waste any fast and deposit it in my backside??? Sure, he had cleared the day and said he was all mine!! I felt truly blessed. The surgery went well and I was over the moon with my results as I was terrified I'd lose my nipple, the lipo was extremely painful on the recovery but at least I wasn't dealing with all the trauma of the first surgery which I was so l still recovering from. The stitching was external as apposed to the initial internal stitching since the tension was much less. He had to leave a few areas open to heal for that very reason. I was careful to keep it clean and dry, it was touch and go, I had nightmares of it popping open but as of now six weeks later all open areas are closed thankfully.

WOW that looks scarey. Looks like it's all taken care of. Did you find out why it happened, was the skin pulled too tight. I hope your happy with your results you look fabulous. Did your TT heal well? Enjoy your new look you certainly deserve it after all you went through.

Thank you! Yes my tummy is great no complications there. I figure it was a combo of things, I might have disturbed it buy to much compression or that strap that goes around the top to get them to drop??

Did the recover home help you feel comfortable the few days? Where did you stay sweety? And last question did they provide you with a private nurse/message therapist?

Yes, I stayed at Casa Del Angel, it was included in the surgery, excellent after care, private nursing care, beautiful ocean view, good food, transportation to and from airport. I paid extra for a lymphatic massage, was worth it.

Tranformation by Dr. Irving Rodriguez

8 and a half hour surgery, I don't remember a thing, he said he removed 4 1/2 lbs of skin and that much of fat as well. Such a shock to the system, I had tremendous pain in my right thigh, burning like crazy, dr. said it was nerves he cut and it would take a couple of weeks to subside, it flares up when I'm swelling bad but it is getting better 1 month po. I got the worst flu the day of my return , had a high fever and cough that is still hanging on 2 weeks now, thought it would be the worst to get a cough and here I am.. Went to my pcp and she gave me some strong cough syrup and an inhaler, I've just felt horrible trying to recover being sick. Now I'm struggling with a nipple that is looking like it is getting separated and not healing well, I was instructed by my pcp to see a plastic surgeon locally, waiting to hear from them. E-mailed Dr Irving and waiting on him to reply, just spraying it with a micro bacterial and changing gauze daily. my tummy incisions looks great, I'm rubbing rosehip oil mixed with lavender and helichrysum oil it keeps it moist , I plan on using Kitocell, a cream I paid 100 dollars a tube for, it is only available in Mexico and was told it was used originally for burn victim scarring but is also now used for post surgical scars with great results.

After reading your review, it appears you are just over your post op 2 month mark! How is the nipple healing going? I am seriously considering your surgeon for myself. I am interested in liposuction to smooth out dimpling in the backs of my thighs & liposculpture on my tummy. Can you tell me anything about those treatments? I hope you are healing well. You really look great & I hope you feel great too!
