Have you asked him yet if you have textured implants? You may need them replaced with smooth
I did he didn't anwser me ...
I'm going to have to do something it's to the point at work you can see it bad with what I wear
I'm so sorry you need to know so that you can move forward
I emailed him again.. I tried looking at my paperwork it doesn't say anything... this is just sucking
Awe I'm sorry have posted your photos on here and asked other dr for their opinion? I have done that. Ask them what they think and if they can tell if they are textured or not.
They said it too soon to tell
Oh ok well your dr needs to answer your questions. I just have read about textured implants
You know my dr and I don't always agree but he does what I ask him to do. My one hip has a dog kinda a bump. He said it is not a big deal but said he will lipo it for me so I said yes it bothers me so he is going to lipo it for me and revise the scar on my other hip.
So sorry you going through this I hope you get the results you suppose to have.
Thank you... I need this so stressed out
Pray. Pray and pray. Have faith that your body will be healed and as you want it.
I'm hoping I need this so bad
Girl I'm looking at your pictures and my heart goes out to you. Hopefully if it ain't better at 6 ms Dr. Ortega will fix it. You should ask if he'll fix it for free or deep discount.
Eno dear. Your doctor did not do a good job, and he needs to take responsibility for that. I know you don't want a revision, but it looks like it may be necessary. I'm so sorry for all the extra stress you have been under because of his poor workmanship. You deserve better. Hang tough and insist he fix them. Take care.
Yes, this
Hey lady, hope all is well. I pray that things got better for you. Just wanted to stop through and give you a cyber hug!

I see a lot more improvement! You are looking. Great!
Do you think so? Boobs are driving me insane
I too see an improvement! When you call ask him if he used textured implants
Okay I definitely will
I have been reading questions from patients about textured implants and that they take longer to drop.
Your body looks great. Right boobs are still a bit questionable.... But it's looking better that before. I think you need a lift when all is healed, give it like 6 months.... That way you will b definite and say to Ortega that..... Something ain't right buddy....fix it!. My boobs are still sore and am about 3 months....I know inside nerves are not healed yet.....so patience my dear......patience. It will be ok.
You look good, we tend to judge ourselves the hardest. Your right boob may need a mini lift, but I think once they completely drop you'll be please. Be patient, your body is healing from a major surgery.
