Never Thought This Would Happen. Do Your Research Before Getting This Surgery - Shreveport, LA

WORTH IT$8,001
I decided to get implants back in the beginning of May after a trip my husband and I took to Florida. I have always had a thin model like figure and desired to be curvier. I had my breast done on December of last year with absolutely no problems so I didn't think this would be much different. I was wrong. I wish I would have done more research before I made the decision to have the surgery. The first three days I couldn't get out of bed, It was the worst pain I had ever felt in my life. After the third day the pain did reside some so that I could tip toe to the bathroom by myself without assistance. Sitting down was way out of the question. This went on for almost two weeks. When my two week check up came along I was able to walk without noticeably limping but still couldn't sit down. Dr wall checked my incision and said the stitches had dissolved and everything looked good. He also said i was ok to drive but to take it easy and try to keep pressure off of the implants. I did start driving with a donut pillow which I must say is a must but I was still very uncomfortable and swollen. Well about a week after that I woke up to my pants being wet, honestly I thought maybe I had an accident because I was still numb and couldn't feel my rear. I was so worried about the pain from the implants their selves I never thought about my incision. Well after that I noticed a small amount of drainage coming from the site so I called Dr walls office and made an appointment for the following Monday since it happened on a Friday. Well the next day my incision started bleeding. I could see directly inside my body. The incision had busted open. I called the emergency line and told Dr Wall immediately. I don't think he really understood how serious it was until he seen me. He cleaned out the incision and applied thick stitches. I had no drains when the surgery was originally done, so I think that is what caused the wound to open. After that point I started seeing him on a weekly basis. I still had drainage even with the stitches. After two weeks of the heavy stitches he took them out and there was still an inch size opening. We tried letting it heal for a week or so more by itself before dr wall added more stitches. We left those in until they pretty much fell out. I still had drainage. Around the middle of July the drainage stopped. Two weeks after that he told me I was healed. I was relieved after the horror I had just been through. Well today August 4th the inch size incision started bleeding again. I called my surgeon and he will be seeing me tomorrow. I am going to talk to him about having them removed. Even after I was told I was healed I still was thinking of having the implants removed. I am still uncomfortable and I have pains
where they attach at the top. When you touch the implant directly it's still sore. They look great when I have my clothes on but in some positions when I am nude they are very noticeable and un natural looking and very hard. Does anyone know about the recovery time for having them removed? Any feed back would be great.

I came across my account when I was checking my old email account and thought I would post an update. All is good. It took about 6-8 months for my wound to heal from the surgery, and about a year for my life to go back to normal and to be completely pain free. Now you can not tell that I have had buttocks augmentation at all. I have a nice feminine arch to my backside, but nothing too dramatic or noticeable, which is what I wanted. My butt is still firm which is to be expected with the solid implants that were used. Overall I am happy with my results. ????

Hi there! So awesome to hear of someone having the implants for so many years and that you're still happy with them! Just got mine done , this is day 9 and i am feeling pretty low... maybe its the exasperation of mot feeling 100% and the uncomfortableness of it all! Please tell me it gets better with time! Thanks!

Yes, it will get better, and it is completely normal to feel down at first. If I could give you any advice it would be to take the time to rest and recover. Spend most of your time laying on your belly. Try not to put any pressure on your stitches, I would def avoid sitting down. I had some issues with my stitches busting open which made my wound take longer to heal. But that was because I was doing too much too soon. I didn't realize the length of time needed to recover and the severity of the surgery. After a while the implants will become just another part of your body and you will love them. If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I wish I would have known someone who had previously had the surgery that could have told me what to expect. Keep your head up and think positive. Everything will be fine.

Thank you soooo much!! You dont know what your words mean to me! Thank you for not only replying but for your encouragement.... It definitely raised my spirits! I am sorry you didn't have anyone that could relate with you when you were initially going through this process, it must have been so difficult for you. I am so glad to hear you are good and came through it all well. I appreciate you being open to communication and my being able to reach out to you, its very comforting...and likewise of course! : )

Mine are the firm implants. They arnt soft like breast implants. When I had mine done all you could choose were the size by inches. It may be different now. I know mine were the smallest size you could get in the buttocks implants.
