Dr. Alvarez wound up taking over my surgery because he does best with little girls who want bigger butts! I am not disappointed! I love my hips and the way he reshaped my hips and legs! However he never saw me for a follow up and his snide PA that was sent in to examine me never removed my stitches or gave me any drain or triangle to lessen my swelling. You can take people's money and run a surgery office like a salon in Miami. I'm happy with my results so far but they are running a sloppy operation over at Spectrum and really need to stop scheduling SO many surgeries. It's about patient care and they will learn that treating people like fast food isn't going to get them 5 stars. Running a shoddy business will eventually catch up to you and word of mouth is still the best way to get business. Going to Spectrum you are taking the risk of having doctors switched and steps missed because they are pumping girls out of their office like a machine. If you want more tender care and personal attention I suggest you search elsewhere. Hopefully Dr.Alvarez will just open his own office or you can find him at an office that cares more about you as a person. Dr. Alvarez is a nice doctor and I hope to see him in a month to get the result I had hoped for through s revision.

I have been following your journey from day one. Thank you for all the information you have given us. It will really help me on my journey. I'm small like you so you are my hero. I may have questions to ask you along the way. My surgery not until next summer gotta gain this weight.
Good luck on round 2 you look awesome.
Looking great! Where did he get the fat from for your revision? I need a small revision but I'm scared I don't have any fat left.
What happen to yours ?
I thought yours turn out perfect. I am still looking for good Doctor . Not for butt just even out the dents .... If you are going to have a revision, Would you consider your last doctor for your revision ?
I just have a spot that's a little flat. And yes absolutely I will go back to Dr. blinski for my revision. LOVE him and his team!
Best wishes !
Perfect!
U look awesome do u mind sharing more pics

That's great to hear u finally got a hold of him
Thank you!!
Did u ever consider butt implants? I like Bbl cause recovery isn't as long as implants but I'm so afraid of losing all the fat can you tell if your butts gone down much n is he charging the same price for round 2 I'm going in an hour for my consultation thanks for your detailed journey
I am scared of more implants but I'm hopeful for round 2!! I'll post as much info as I can!
you still have to see my implants!! You Tina & I need to get together soon <3 <3 DEFINATELY before your next surgery! miss you love :)
Happy for you ! You are going with sane Doctor right ? I had a surgery with Johnny Franco in Austin,same date as you were. And my liposuction looks uneven with dents and ripping and my butt one side bigger than other side , still tender in some area of lipo suctioned.... And I am same size as was before the surgery except for my butt was 351/2 ,now 36 inches. I guess I have gain half inch on one side
Did you have the revision?

Where else does Sergio Alvarez work?

Spectrum is basically not answering me at all and I'm going to contact Dr. Alvarez on here and try to go to another office. I'm not begging anyone to take my money. I want a revision and I'd like Alvarez to perform it so hopefully someone will tip me off where to track him down.

He has his own office now
Awesome! Thank God he just took my appointment for basically the cost of anesthesia! Thank you for telling me!!
