Still disappointed 29 months after my BBL and tummy tuck with Tania de Medina and in the hope of helping others to make their de
Hi beautiful girls
I'm here today 2.5 years after my tummy tuck and brazilian butt lift (or what some people call butt fat grafting or butt lipofilling). And although I had time to digest my story and I don't feel any hate anymore towards Tania de Medina (Yes I admit now that I did because even if I never put this into words it's been difficult for me and I hated her at some point), I still feel very disappointed about this woman and her work.
You should read my previous reviews to know exactly what happened to me but in a few words I travelled from London (United kingdom) to the Dominican republic because like other women I found that she was a surgeon I could trust and her prices were much better than in Europa.
At the end when I met her I specifically told her I didn't want more hips but she still grafted a lot of fat in my sides leaving me with two clothes sizes above my regular one. And I also told her I was thinking about having a vaginoplasty done. And I wouldn't have done it if she wouldn't send me to one of the best as she called her (read my other review about it - this concerns the doctor Dra. Clara Vargas De Garcia).
I think I will talk about my experience for the rest of my life and will update my review every year or so because if only one woman can avoid what I've been through that would be it.
My tummy tuck was okay. It's the only thing I was happy about. But it's not perfect. How could it be when you see the rest of the surgery? I really feel like because I was the first one on the operation table at 5 in the morning that Tania de Medina wasn't really awake or I don't know, but she messed me up.
My tummy tuck healed beautifully. I think it's more about my genes because among friends I always had a good skin and after a while my scars would fade. So I'm lucky for that part.
But when people see my navel they immediately see it's been 'done'. It does not look natural because there's this small scar underneath. I don't know why.
And this surgeon I've seen recently for a check up also told me it shouldn't be here.
As for the tummy tuck scar itself one side goes upper the other one. It gives me trouble when I wear a swim suit because I often need to think about elevating one side more than the other.
But overally speaking I'm pretty happy about my tummy tuck until now. I mean it's 80% okay.
I've done a lot of gym since the surgery and I still do but I now know you can't just delete what has surgically been done to you. I lost weight but the necrosis on my hips and these bumps would't go away.
So the new surgeon I've seen a few weeks ago said I would need not to only do a lipo on my hips but also I will be left with scars because he will have to surgically remove the bumps, the fat necrosis that I was left with.
The result of that could be that I lose all of my butt shape and maybe, I say maybe, I will also have to get a butt lifting in the future.
So from naturally okay but in the need of improvement after two pregnancies, I went to huge after my bbl, then deformed, then this.
Like I was saying in another post, surgeons can have the same prices but they don't have the same skills. And you really need to be careful on which you choose to go for.
I feel like Tania de Medina can only work on certain body types.
I come from an african background and we don't specifically have a huge waist, actually a lot of african women don't have any hips but they have the butt, this nice curvy bubbly butt who everybody enjoys looking at on the planet. And Tania can only build this curvy waist shapes some latino women are so in love into. And I must admit when it's well performed this looks incredible. But when it's well done I said. This coca cola bottle shape wasn't exactly what I wanted to achieve and it feels to me that it was clear from the pictures I sent before the surgery but I wonder now is she really looking at these? I think she's just operating everybody the same way.
So yes I will have my lipo and fat necrosis removal at the end of the year.
It's very regretful that Tania de Medina never tried to give me my money back because it's obviously proof of greediness and not being able to take your responsabilities. Especially when you think she's also the one who sent me to this 'vagina butcher'. But not all people can be right on this planet. This is why balance was made for.
I will keep you updated after my next surgery. It's a long long journey.

Have mercy! I've seen so many Medina dolls and this doesn't even look like her work. You've definitely given me something to think about as I had her at the top of my list. Her dolls look so beautiful & natural... That I immediately took a liking to her work. You're the first negative review I've come across here and it is astonishing. Hmmm maybe I should put more consideration into Paz and Cabral. Thanks for sharing Doll. Best wishes.
