Are the results really worth it?
dignamom42 replied to m_ruttler's topic in Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Hi there. I definitely think its worth it. Consult an experienced surgeon and discuss your physical condition. After analyzing your physical condition, only an experienced surgeon can let you know the best recommendations. Don't take the decision on your own. After months of reading up I finally did my consultations and decided to go with doctor Rino Lorenzo for my double eyelid surgery in Manila in december! I have not picked a date yet but I'm looking for someone who wants to split costs for a care giver and hotel with. Thank you! -
help- can a nose job help me?
dignamom42 replied to knightworker's topic in Rhinoplasty - Nose Surgery
There are various reasons why individuals opt for this procedure. Some are unhappy with the nose with which they were born or the way aging has changed their nose. For others, an injury may have distorted the nose and in many, there is the additional goal of improving breathing. As the nose occupies a central position on the face, the size and shape of the nose has a great impact on an individualís appearance. Rhinoplasty is only as safe as the surgeon whom you most carefully choose to perform the procedure. In the proper hands, the procedure is very safe. So choose your surgeon carefully. When I had mine in Manila, I knew my doctor, Dr Rino Lorenzo is the right choice as he is well experienced in doing nose job surgery. -

Hello everyone! I too have had breast augmentation in Manila in 2009. It was the best decision for me. I was a 36A then now 38B.I haven't posted any vids yet but I might if its possible. Speaking of videos, I watched a lot of vids prior to my surgery and it helped a lot for speedy recovery. I had my breast aug done in Manila by Dr Rino Lorenzo. Good doctor and great staff as well. Highly recommended. Anyways goodluck to all newbies here!

Cosmetic surgery is getting more prevalent either because people are more affluent or because the procedures are more affordable. Procedures like Rhinoplasty surgery is very affordable in the Manila. A lot of tourists travel there for vacation and cosmetic surgery as well. That is because the medical services provided in the Philippines can rival the best in the world. One expert rhinoplasty surgeon I recommend is Dr Rino Lorenzo who did my nose a couple of years ago. It was really hard stuff. Post surgery was painful. But after a few months, it became much better. Glad that I did it. I love my result!

Upper Eyelid Surgery or Brow Lift recommendations
dignamom42 replied to Sarah11's topic in Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
I recently decided to get quadruple blepharoplasty, which means I'll get the fat sucked out from under both eyes and have some skin and fat removed from the crease of both eyelids. I see my friends over events and nobody notices that I look different which was great! They all say I looked good. The same thing happens at a meeting. I got several compliments and I start to wonder if people are seeing a difference without knowing exactly what it is. I give credit to my good surgeon for that. Good thing that one of my friends referred me to Dr Rino Lorenzo when I visited Manila last year. I feel more confident and I actually don't mind getting my picture taken now than before i had my surgery. Anyways good luck with yours! -
Before the actual procedure, you will probably have a preoperative appointment with your surgeon. Aside from consultation and depending on the procedure, this visit may also include blood testing. I had my cosmetic surgery in Manila with Dr Rino Lorenzo of Philippine Cosmetic website and it only cost me at a very affordable rate. It included everything hotel accommodation. I had such a good time.Obviously after operation it was a painful but I took painkiller so it was alright. I hope you feeling much more better now.

I think this could be improved , yes. Better consult a good surgeon to check you out. One of the most important steps in assuring a satisfactory rhinoplasty outcome is selecting the right surgeon. Since rhinoplasty ranks among the most challenging of all cosmetic procedures, at a bare minimum you should find a surgeon with genuine rhinoplasty expertise, considerable rhinoplasty experience, and a resume of consistently favorable results. it has been a far better experience than I'd imagined. I've found Dr. Rino Lorenzo and I'm very happy with my result. It been almost a year of post op and I'm already satisfied with the development. -
How does getting a second bigger BA work?
dignamom42 replied to Helloholly's topic in Breast Augmentation
Hi there. If you have breast implants that are covered adequately by your breast tissues, the breasts are soft, shape is good, no sagging and the breasts complement the rest of your body, then leave them alone. If you have issues with any of the above, then you can consider revision surgery. It's important that you get a consultation from your cosmetic surgeon to really help you gauge your situation. When I thought of getting a 2nd breast augmentation in Manila I made sure that I consulted several surgeons first, and then chose a good doctor (Dr Rino Lorenzo of the Renewed You Aesthetic Center) to really help me achieve a good result. -
Double Eyelids Surgery, Done in Bangkok, Sharing
dignamom42 replied to ThomassSG's topic in Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Hi, I'm a forty-years-old IT professional, living in the States. Recently I have noticed sagging skin around my eyelids. I am annoyed because I am looking older. I don't want this droopy eyelid as everyone has started noticing it. I saw a page on FB , for improving appearance for eyes, from a clinic in Manila. So I decided to have one early this year. I’m glad that I did, I was totally happy with my result! Thanks Dr Rino Lorenzo and to his staff at the Renewed You Aesthetic Center as well. I now feel more confident!- 1 reply

Girl1999 reacted to a post in a topic: When did yours soften up?
-
Hi there. My husband (who feels them often LOL) told me he felt a big difference after 4 weeks after my surgery in Manila. I noticed that they are feeling softer all the time. My good doctor, Dr Rino Lorenzo said they would keep getting softer for awhile. But at a month out they feel pretty darn good. I didn't do any message either, just let them do their thing. The time really does fly. Good Luck

When I just had my post reduction i used to wear my old bras. Each surgeon has different recommendations for his or her patients. My good doctor Dr Rino Lorenzo adviced me to wear my old bras. Although the cups will be too big, there is plenty of room for dressings and the band around will fit as it did before surgery. Then, when there is drainage and the bra gets dirty, it can be thrown out--which was going to happen anyway. Right now my result look good and I feel better more than ever. I just love it!

Rhinoplasty can not only enhance the look and function of the nose, it can also improve confidence and eliminate years of self-consciousness caused by your nasal appearance. Nose surgery can be performed for cosmetic reasons or for health reasons such as a deviated septum that interferes with breathing also results of rhinoplasty surgery are permanent. If you wish to know more about the surgery procedure and cost and also for free consultation you could approach Manila surgeon Dr Rino Lorenzo for more information on how to do your rhinoplasty surgery. Best of luck!

Looking for Rhinoplasty/ENT recommendation

As the nose occupies a central position on the face, the size and shape of the nose has a great impact on an individual’s appearance. One advice I could give is to choose a good surgeon that fits your requirement. A good surgeon must be certified and specializes in rhinoplasty surgery. I had rhinoplasty in Manila a couple of years ago so I know. One expert rhinoplasty surgeon I recommend is Dr Rino Lorenzo who did my nose. Regarding pricing, aside from Europe, cosmetic surgery is very affordable in Asia. A lot of Europeans and Americans travel Manila for vacation and cosmetic surgery because of the medical services provided in Manila can rival the best in the world. Goodluck! -

I'm guessing you want a nice, natural look. I would suggest you go to a rhinoplasty surgeon that fits well with what you want as a result of your rhinoplasty . There are a lot of good cosmetic surgeons in the Philippines. In fact a lot of people choose the Philippines for plastic surgery so that they can combine their medical procedure with vacation time as well. If you wish to know more about the surgery procedure and cost and also for free consultation you could approach Manila surgeon Dr Rino Lorenzo for more information on how to do your revisions.

I'm scared my revision won't be successful
dignamom42 replied to Mellycee's topic in Revision Rhinoplasty
Hi Johny, There is no real need to fear your revision. What you need is to choose a good surgeon to do it. For example, does your surgeon have experience in the procedure you want? Each area of cosmetic surgery needs different skills. Operating on a nose is different from operating on a breast. I had my revision rhinoplasty in Manila with notable surgeon Dr Rino Lorenzo. He also did my tummy tuck 3 years ago. It went really well. I'm glad that I did it. Good luck with yours!
