Day 5

WORTH IT
Can't remove bandages yet. The middle is just from the surgical tape that I had a reaction too. Otherwise all is going well with recovery. Will post more pictures once I am able to remove bandages. I am extremely pleased so far with my results.

My results where great! I was a little scared at first but after speaking with the doctor I was very comfortable. I am planning going back for another procedure soon. Dr. Luis Tactuk Simo was very good and patient. He made me feel comfortable in a foreign state and made sure I was okay until I returned home.

Breast lift

So I decided to return and get my breast lift with my favorite Doctor in DR. From when I landed up to date he has been attentive to my concerns and needs. I got here on Weds. 10/05 and preformed all my post opt test. Everything was normal and I was cleared for surgery. Thursday morning I was taken to surgery, a little nervous and scared since the whole process is scary when your alone. But once I entered the operating room and seen Dr. Luis Tactuk Simò I was relieved. I even got a bonus welcome when I seen his dad come over to great and comfort me. They are both amazing gentlemen. I would definitely recommend these doctors to anyone. Most doctors are not to warm and welcoming but these two amazing souls are more than doctors. They are not in it for the money as most doctors are. Follow up photos to come before and after. Keep in mind my main concern was the scar I already had which I was very uncomfortable with. I know it will not look perfect but I'm just hoping for a better and not so horrible appreance.

Did you get implants?
No implants.
Day 2. Very little pain but I'm up and moving around like nothing. Limited lifting so not lifting or doing anything. Just relaxing.
Sounds like you're doing amazing! Good for you!
Can you show some more pictures please? Breast lift is one of the procedures I am strongly considering having with this doctor. So, if I could see your before and after it would help me a lot. Thanks on advance

ORIGINAL POST

Wasn't happy with my breast because of the size...

Wasn't happy with my breast because of the size and one was bigger than the other. So I got a consultation with Dr. Luis Tactuk Simo and discussed my options. He explained the procedures and recovery time which made me proceed with my discussion. I was uncomfortable since I was in a foreign state and things you hear on the news made it extra scary for me. But after meeting the doctor and observing the clinic I was more at ease. He performed a breast lift and did some lipo to even me out. I was very happy with my results.

Welcome to the community and thanks so much for offering your opinion of your doctor.

It would be great if you could give us a little more detail about your experience, like why you had the surgery, your tips for getting good results, pros/cons, and info on the recovery process.

Our community members especially love seeing photos from before, during, and after — a realistic look at what they can expect. Photos grab the attention of the community and encourage more support for you.

As a community manager, I get requests all the time from other members who want me to to keep encouraging people to share their experiences, which are so helpful for others considering these procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.

As a child I was born with a heart condition and it was corrected. It left me with a scar across my chest that with time stretched out. The scar does bother me only in the middle of my chest. I don't like to wear low cut shirts and I am very uncomfortable wearing a bikini top because people stare. I thought that by making my breast smaller it would help. But it didn't, my breast are 34DD normally which the weight of them make the scar more noticable in the middle. The scar hangs in the middle and is not appealing. I am going back to get another surgery and the scar will be redone to help it will look less noticable. I don't mind a scar but a scar that looks keiloid it not something I want. I trust that my doctor will give me good results. He is an amazing Doctor. I would recommend anyone to him. I brought him one of my friends and she is very happy with her results.

Thanks for sharing your story. Can I ask what made you decide to get a lift, instead of a lift with implants?

I was scared and didn't know much about it. I have done my research now. The breast reduction I thought would help the appreance of a scar I have across my chest from a surgery I had as a child. I scar stretched out as I grow up making it very noticable and uncomfortable. Hopefully this time around with smaller breast like a C or D it will help. My breast are 34DD which are not small even after my reduction. Keeping my fingers crossed though and staying positive on my consult and or produce in Oct.
I was wondering if you could tell me how ur surgery went was it good ?
It went amazing! I wasn't feeling any discomfort after 48hrs, which was surprising. I had to remind myself that I had just had surgery and needed to slow down. This doctor is amazing. Going back for another consult this Oct.
