Traveled to Barranquilla, Colombia. Silicone Removal Surgery is Tomorrow!

I am disappointed. I will say that I am satisfied and grateful for the good job Dr Torres did with the removal of that product. I still have a stitch left with some irritation and discomfort, last I was able to speak with him he reassured me that this is normal. Not sure at this point as I am past 3 month mark. I had breast lift and tummy tuck at the same time and my results are not good. My breasts look deformed and my bellybutton looks pretty bad. I have reached out to Dr Torres a total of eight times over a 4 week period hoping to get a plan together for me to go back to fix things, no response. I’ve sent videos, voice clips, text messages, nothing. I’ve sent message with his assistant, no response. Disheartening.

For those of you that have asked for a picture with clothes on, here you go. I have gained a little weight since getting back to my almost normal life and no longer feel self conscious about my backside looking like it didn’t belong to my body! I believe that I am back to looking like myself. Wishing everyone healing and health!

Wanted to update everyone as I approach 2 months post op. Recovery is not an easy one! I still have numbness, some swelling, and discomfort. The biggest challenge for me has been the area of the butt crack. Doctor cut inside there towards the top and stitched. I still have 3 stitches on one side and irritation. Almost two months of daily irrigation and placement of antibiotic cream with very little improvement is discouraging. I have read on here others having a similar complication and hope this clears up soon. I still have somewhat limited mobility. I can bend down straight, but uncomfortable to lean forward. I can drive, power walk, go up and down stairs no problem, but not ready to go back to the gym. Overall I feel better than prior to surgery. Headaches are less frequent, fatigue has gone away, depression is gone. This has been worth the journey, just hope this last concern resolves itself soon.
