This is so frustrating. I have not heard from either doctor yet and it's been going on two weeks. I understand that they are busy but they need to hire more staff to help RESPOND. What's the point of delivering great results when you don't respond to potential, repeat patients? Ugh....

That is the most annoying thing to hear when you have decided to entrust someone with information and they go into the kumbaya, love yourself, be one with God, he makes no mistakes shenanigans. My boyfriend, best friend and mom are dead against plastic surgery. Well at least when it comes to me. But when we get into the different procedures one can have done, they go off on what they would have done if they had the "you know what's" to do it. Now if that aint the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is. Plastic surgery is a superficial example, nevertheless, it is an example of why you cannot let people deter you from your goals. If you have your mind set on something, and you thoroughly assessed the pros and cons and you can afford it: I say do it. Whether its a new car, a new business, a new house or a new ass, GO FOR IT.

Because at the end of your life, you have to face the things you wanted to do but didn't do, because of what someone else
Thought or said.

Don't mind the rant. Just had to get that off my chest lol.

Dr. Disla is looking pretty appealing!

I haven't totally ruled out Dr. pantoja but I don't care for his wide incision lines. I'm sure there are patients that have healed and have scars that are barely visible. So my intention is not to bad mouth him in any way. But Im african American ( brownish skin tone) and when I scar, it takes FOREVER for it to go away. So I'd prefer thinner incision lines. Which brings me to Dr. Disla. Her work is phenomenal. I emailed her for a quote and am impatiently awaiting a response. If the price is under 5,000, I'll be going to have surgery in December! So excited.

Anyone else going around the end of 2013/early 2014 in the NYC area? Maybe we can buddy up. I SO don't wanna go alone!

Also, thanks for the support so far. Means alot!
