Boobies look good. I consulted with Dr Ortega also while I was in Mia for my BBL with Dr. Fisher. I am getting a breast lift next month, and I am quite nervous about the lollipop scar....out of everything this one sounds painful with stitches ripping. Happy healing!

aww thanks girl! yeah that surgery is a little different but not as disabling. i had an anchor lift and i too was scared of the scarring to be honest, my scars have become really light and i didnt even use the silicone sheets. separation of the incisions is really common and as long as you care for them they heal like nothing ever happened. ahh im happy for u ! that surgery will change your life

Well I'm two months post op yayyyyy! So I had a small setback with an open incision but it has healed. It may seem that it will never heal, but it definitely will. My right breast has dropped almost completely. My left however has a little ways to go. I wear my breast band every night so I do see progress. So my next journey? Lipo in feb/march! I don't have a date yet but its a go for sure. Thanks for reading

hey girls! so im sry ive seemed to have gone MIA but heres a little update..my incision is finally healing! it has taken quite some time but its coming along. the doctor as well as his patient coordinator vivian have really helped me along. i have taken my antibiotics and faithfully cleaning my incision 2x a day. i have read this is a very common setback in full lifts and theres a 50/50 chance. i still would not change my doctor for one second. hes the best. hows everyone doing on their journey?
