The pain is getting worse

I am gonna need another removal, my physical symptoms, as well as the pain are becoming bothersome. There's not a day I am not in pain. I just don't understand why more was not removed. It really is puzzling to me. I thought I was happy at first, but now I am worse than I started. I wish I would have never done this to myself.

Hello everyone,

Wanted to give you a long term update. I am still having pain, and backpain post surgery, which I never had before. The doctor says it could be scar tissue built up.
I did have a second opinion with an updated MRI from a different removal doctor, and that doctor also said the same thing. There is possible scar tissue, and more silicone to be removed.
There are several amazing things about Dr. Diaz, and a few things that you must consider. Dr. Diaz is a conservative surgeon, who is not only concerned about your health but your appearance. He will not leave you deformed, and he rather split things in multiple procedures. That is something to consider when choosing a doctor.
I am not a trusting person because of my life experiences, so I need constant assurance, and getting multiple opinions was necessary for me.
As you can see from the photos, I lined up the moles I have on the before and after surgery so you can see how much was removed. The MRI also shows significant attempt to clean my muscle.
Dr. Diaz and hist staff are honest, and very caring. I don't have the means to go back at this time for my revision, but I am looking forward to lifting things up, and having more silicone removed.

Post-Op Video Update! 1 and 1/2 mo.
I am healing well, but the pain that led me to get surgery has returned, and this is something that could happen, and require another surgery.
I am also seeing some asymmetry where the right cheek drops down further than the left ( where I have pain ).
I am not into my hips, I think they are too pointy, but that can be corrected later during reconstruction if I want to go that rout.
I will be getting another MRI to see how much was removed, and if I have silicone still in my muscle, comparing the before and after MRIs

Hi! How are you feeling? I’m going to colombia to Folleco in May.. Paz was definitly on my list.. how did you heal once you got to the states? Also did you only stay 21 days? Your scar looks really good… when are you doing your MRI?

Hi love, I am in the process of choosing a doctor, what made you go with Folleco instead of Paz ?

Hi! So I’ve been searching for a while and follecos office was the most responsive to all my questions.. before putting my deposit I must’ve asked so many annoying questions and they answer every time so nicely and knowledgeable every time. Folleco also speaks English and he does about 4 removals every week. I’m also in a chat on WhatsApp with about 170 girls who have gone to him or are planning to go to him and share pics and their experience. After seeing real reviews that’s what really did it for me.
