Went to see my plastic surgeon. He thinks he might be able to make the rippling in my implants better but probably won't be able to eliminate it since I have very little breast tissue to cover the implants. It is a dilemma, Love the size, hate the ripples. I look wonderful in clothes but wanted to look as good naked too. vain? yes. the only person who is going to see it has been married to me for 27 years and loved me at 260 pounds & probably doesn't care one bit about the ripples or even notice them like I do. I even have considered just having them removed, Lots to think about over the next couple of months. HE ALSO SAID HE WILL REVISE MY THIGHS!!!!! I am so happy. Lipo around the knees and nip in the skin a little more. I think it will make a lot of difference in how I see my body. I have been so freaked out about this and it is such a relief to know it will get better. I go back in 2 months and if he thinks I am healed well enough he will schedule me. I don't care if it isn't until next year as long as I know it will happen.

I am making an addition to this post that I should have added a very long time ago. I was afraid to post what was really going on as my PS had read my blog before and really let me have it over something I had posted. He took huge offense over me posting that I had an infection, yelled at me  pretty much til I was in tears. Prior to this visit with my PS I obtained 2 other 2nd & 3rd opinions from other board certified plastic surgeons. I was feeling like he was not being totally on the level with me. I have never posted what they told me and I should have.  My plastic surgeon lied to me. He gave me a bull shit story about a special type of breast lift he was doing. It was a made up story, all he did was place implants.  He also told me he placed the implants under the muscle,  that was the plan preop and what he told me post op that he had done.  Both of the other ps told me the implants were absolutely and unequivicolly over the muscle. That is why I have such severe rippling.  Had he done the proper lift and placed the implants under the muscle I would likely not be having these issues.  They both also said the thigh lift was poorly done, and that if it were their work they would redo it, free of charge.

At the time all this was going on I was severely depressed over the complications and quite frankly feeling pretty trapped finacially on having revisions. I was in debt from the loans I had taken for the original surgery and did not have the money for revisions, and did not have resources for more loans either.  I was hoping my surgeon would do the right thing and make right on the surgeries he had taken short cuts on previously.  I do not know why I continued to place trust in aman who had so blatantly lied,  and done substandard procedures before.
