I can't figure out how to change my worth it rating and update my existing Doctor review... Can anyone tell me how to edit these in my existing review?
During my pre-op consultation Dr. Clavijo-Alvarez was exceptionally kind and personable. He spent an hour and a half discussing the procedure in depth with me and never made me feel rushed or uncomfortable in any way. He informed me of both the potential positives of the procedure as well as the risks without sugar coating anything. This has been hands down the most pleasant and informative experience I have ever had with ANY doctor.
Before my surgery began Dr. Clavijo and his staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel comfortable and at ease. Dr. Clavijo very carefully marked out the areas on my chest where he would operate. I had to comment to him on how when I was marked prior to getting implants in, the surgeon at the time literally just slapped sharpie all over the front of my body. He then gave me his personal cell phone number so that I could contact him directly should I have any issues after surgery (also did not happen in my previous surgical experience). Before I went under anesthesia they brought my husband back, which was also very nice and wasn't allowed in my prior surgery experiences. I even received a call from Dr. Clavijo himself the afternoon after my surgery!
Dr. Clavijo and I agreed prior to surgery that he would either remove the implants and perform a periareolar (around the nipple only) lift, or he would just simply remove the implants depending on how the results looked. He could have very easily just decided to perform the lift since I, being under, wouldn't have known the results anyway. He decided my results were fine and it was best for me to wait it out and see how I liked them before spending money on a lift and adding unnecessary scars. After the procedure he informed me of this and during my post-op appointment he promptly brought me a check paying me back for the lift that was not performed. It was clear that he cared more about my being happy with the result than he cared about making money.
Dr. Clavijo will most definitely be my first choice for any procedures that I may decide to get in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon who is honest, extremely capable and who actually cares about his patients.
You look amazing. Would you mind sharing your size implant before removal and size after. I’m having my explant Nov 3r, although my dr. Says I should do a lift, I’m not sure I really want a lift. I’m not sure how how much my skin has stretched. I was a AA before and had 650 under. I’m 5’2” amd 130lbs (small frame). Thanks.
Hello! Doing well after about 2 weeks. I'm now permitted to wear an underwire bra with bandages to cushion if the wire bothers my incisions. I feel back to normal though it's still too early for strenuous exercise. Just started massaging my incisions yesterday as this will help flatten out the incision scars. Still no regrets!
You look great. You are young so everything snaps back in place. I deflated 18 year old saline I was so sick of for years. Too big. I was 34a to a36 d after. Since I am older and had them do long I have more sag. I decided to do more extensive surgery. Got 2 months to wait but the support here is great
