Life after surgery :)
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoMay 17, 2015
hello gorgeous girls,
If you had , or just plan to have any surgery I want you to know ,there IS life after surgery. The reason i am writing today is to show you few of the thinks that I've used. For the nose scar, a dermapen and alternativ a medical grade 70% glycolic peel by Magnificent Face from Ebay. For the redness and itching at eyes I use Innoxa , a blue liquid from Amazon. I also pinch and pull to skin to eliminate the anesthetic gap formed above the left bleph. It takes time and patience . I have both. No matter what happen after surgery, do not allow yourself to act like a victim. love yourself regardless. Go do your hair, spoil yourself at spa and buy new make-up and/or new shoes. That's what I did. It felt AWESOME. For lips, which were not remained plumb after one year, I searched for a no surgical solution and found CandyLipz. My nose started to chane after sx. the tip was more bulbous so I bought a device from Ebay, Those are few of the items I used and did to made a difference in my result.

Wow! You went through A LOT and you look GREAT. Too bad you had to go through SOOO much. I am not sure how you stayed calm. I really think you looked GREAT before and did not need all that though.

Thank you JA7. You sound so sweet. That was my opinion too, that I did not need a browlift after all. I was left with an ll between my brows which he wanted to smooth it with botox. Why will I need botox every 3-4 months if I had a browlift? I did not even have had the money for browlift in the first place. I was talked in to do it. But as you said I stayed calm and tried to fix what I could. I am more than just a pretty face. Thanks again for your comment.

Hi Zizi!.. In the picture with the candy lipz your lip lift looks great!, so natural shape :).. The scar under the nose is really hidden .
May 22, 2015
Onmyway, that glycolic acid is amazing. It was able to minimize my scar under nose to the point that is almost invisible. A friend who saw me unhappy with my lipsize , one year after lift, told me to check that CandyLipz . It is working. It last just few hours, but it's ok.

I too used the devil Dr. Niamey. I am so sorry I ever entered his office. NOTE the DMD after his name his is a dentist not a plastic surgeon. Do your research ladies! It cost me over $20,000 for repairs!,
May 26, 2015
Yes it is too bad, but DENTIST, OBGYN, even Dermatologist are all jumping on the cosmetic band wagon because it is a HUGE CASH cow for them. Insurance does not cover cosmetic elective procedures so they ALL want in on it. EVERYONE......Please be careful. Reviews really mean NOTHING. Try to SEE and TALK to 4 Patients IN PERSON. Check their State Board status and Licence.

I won't even be able to describe the feeling that I had when he introduced me to a resident, when I visited him the second time. Woww. I had the feeling that he will operate on me while under anesthesia. I wish I could have a video from my first six to see exactly who operated on me. And yes you're right every internist now does injectiile . There are curses that teaches even nurses how to inject restylane or Botox over the weekend. Majority reviews has one post, and maybe one comment , how can I trust it? I myself met two girls from RS in person and phone communication with two more. It's hard to find women like me , able to meet in person.

I am so sorry to hear you too had a negative experience. I am so happy for you that you got fixed. I know 20k is hard to make it. Some people work few years to save the money we spent in one visit. Thank you for your comment ebrn7760

After almost two years, I do believe the blepharoplasty is worth it, only if done properly. It is a quick procedure, easy recovery. My surgery was not as expected, and even though I have never wrote that I was insecure with my look before, I did not say it even after my unsatisfactory result. I strongly believe that we should have realistic expectations, so for that, I patiently waited one full year before asked for a revision. I went on with my life, wearing sunglasses to cover my life, having faith in my doc, that he will fix it. At the revision consult, he changed the plan saying that 'this is the best it can get". besides, I was rushed under the pretext that there are other patients waiting. Weirdly , one the papers that were brought to me to sign, were for eye revision. after minutes waiting for nurse to clarify for me if I still get revision, I left the office, feeling awfully sorry that I drove 8h, one way, to be treated like this. So, this was the mainly reason to rate one star. Since I came back, I start to pull the skin on the bleph was cut shorter to make it evenly . Today looks much better and with the help of make up i don't look that bad. :)) however, my eyes shape changed from slightly almond to rounded shape. Who cares?

So sorry you did not get the results you desired. I think the physician should have made it clear what he could do before the surgery not after. I think you look great and that you are a beautiful woman. Thanks for sharing and God Bless..

I'm so confused with all this review , did your lip lift got better?
May 11, 2015
Yes it did. When I went back for a revision, doctor agreed that the left side of my lip prolapse due to the scar and he suggested to add some Sillikon1000 only on that side. He did nothing because I left his office due to miss communication. I came home and ordered a derma pen and a medical 70% glicolic peel. I've used those alternatively and today my scar looks 90% better. My upper lip look even now, and I am happy . As a matter of fact, I am so happy with how well that peel works, I use it for under eye, elbows, knees, the skin looks younger and wrinkles almost gone. And because my nose shape changed I bought a device that Asian girls use it for reshaping their nose. It work wonder. If you want I can add pics of all what I used. If you have any other Q please feel free to ask.

That would be great :).. glad you found a solution to fix it,..I had couple botched plastic surgeries as well, and is so desperate and hopeless to don't find any good doctor who can repair others mistakes, I need to remove my permeant fillers from upper lip and then do a lip lift as well, but can't find any plastic surgeon who does this kind of procedures, only Dr Lam in Plano Texas , but I'm in new yor- miami area most of the time so..,I was about to drive to see Dr. Niamtu, but I had told from his secretary that he doesn't performance permeant lip removal.
May 11, 2015
Did you ask Dr Haworth ? Really, no doctor does implant removal? If I hear anything will let you know. As for me I never said Dr N botched me,you can see the pics, he just did not know how to treat me. I went back with dezire to have a facelift and lower lip implant, beside fixing the scar. I just felt rushed and disrespected. You don't invite someone over and go . I deserve respect, I don't have to demand it. I think he can remove your implant.
May 14, 2015
I also went to California to see dr Haworth, he recommended to no take the permant feelers out, because he said my lip could be deformed after removal,I meant I had botched plastic surgery.
Of course you deserve respect.
Sometimes doctors act like sales person in the esthetic field,Thats is really scary and sad.
Thank you for offer your help:)

Hi as I said will look for a doc for you. I found Dr Harrison Lee. He got office in NY too and I read he removed silicon from someone's face. It worth to write and ask if he can help you. I wish good luck to you and keep me in the loop. If I find another doc will let you know
May 14, 2015
Hi Zizi!..Thank you So much!!!.. I'l contact him :), I'll keep you posted, I'm interested in your peelings and nose reshaping..keep me posted on that , :)..wish you all the best

Hi onmyway, I saw your Q ABOUT lip and breast. I think should find a doctor to remove the implant, minimize the breast with a Benelli style and then fill up the breast with fat until you can get the fullness desired. For upper lip , I think you should first find out if there is any doctor willing to remove (I guess that's sillikon?) The filler, than have a lip lift. The lip will not be raised much but will eliminate the crease that you have right under the nose when you smile. And only, after the liplift if you should decide if you still want to remove the filler. In my opinion as a novice, I think your upper lip has a great amount of fulness and if the crease will be eliminate will allow your mouth to open in a very relaxed , natural smile. But of course it is your body and you have to decide , I just wanted to compliment your lips. I will post pics of the items you're interested in.

Hi onmyway. I also found Dr Samuel Lam for your lip. Read his reviews with pics. Looks pretty impressive.
May 21, 2015
Hi zizi!..Thanks for all your recommendation :),I agree with you, I want to do the Benelli style and then fill up the breast with stem cells and fat,the only doctor who I see does this procedure is Dr Gary Horndeski in Texas,but not with stem cells.
with the benelli style I really don't like some women on this site they has the dog ears or gathering on the bottom edges of the breast ,and also breast looks square ,I don’t know if they round out as they heal because I didn’t saw no one who have this kind of procedure after healing.
I don't have silicokon on upper lips, I have PMMA who migrate to the space between my nose and lip,so the PMMA is encapsulated some were there,my lip has a normal volume but the space were the PMMA migrate is swollen , inflamed and elongated after six years,at the beginning my lips were fine, then after one and halft years started to change and get worse and worse,I also contact Dr Samuel Lam ,he can do the removal but he want put fillers also ,and I don't want any more fillers on my face , I'll do stem cells fat transfer if I need to, but not artificial fillers ,you never know how your body is going to react to a foreign organism.

Wow, IDK what PA means but will google. However, I would like you to check this review. It's Dr Gloria Olarte in CA and tell me your opinion please. http://www.realself.com/review/pasadena-ca-breast-lift-benelli-implants-day

You've done a great job of reshaping your lids so that they both look balanced. Your eyes are very beautiful! Can you tell me where you bought your Dermapen? I've been researching different brands but haven't made a decision yet. I'm also very curious about the nose device you mentioned. What is it exactly? Thanks so much!
May 17, 2015
Hello torontachica , I just post new pics. Both dermapen and the peel founded on Ebay. The dermapen I waited one month, comes from China. It is painfull but helped the scar softening. Little blood too, nothing major. Scar is almost gone.
May 18, 2015
Thank you for the photos Zizi. Your patience and determination to resolve the issues you were unhappy about has really paid off. You don't have any visible scarring and your nose just looks just as lovely as it did before surgery. I'm a big fan of micro-needling (I own several dermarollers) and would like to buy an "electronic dermapen" next. The devices from China are a good price but can be unreliable, so my search continues. If you happen to try the electronic version, I'd love to know your thoughts. Take care and enjoy the beautiful you! :)
May 19, 2015
WOw torontochica, I didn't know there is an electric pen. i will research more. Thank you. I am watching the youtube videos too, very informative. I will let you know
Do you look better or not? Is he surgeon you'd recommend or not? Do you think an eye life is worth it, because your review sounds more like you accept all the bad things that happened, like itchiness and having deeper frown lines.
And did you say you have permanent eye itching?
