I went to this doctor in Tijuana, Zona del Rio, Mexico for nose surgery on 02/07. I had my nose broken and I wanted to straightened my nose. Dr. Milla was told right before surgery not to turn my nose up and to leave my Mexican nose.
The swelling started to go down after 7 months and I was so traumatized by what I saw he had done to my nose. He took my nose off from the bottom, the front, the sides, the top. He totally disfigured me. I use to take a lot of pictures before this surgery since I was photogenic. Now I look so horrible. It is terrible getting up in the mornings and looking in the mirror and not looking like me. This in it self is an emotional traumatic experience. The worst part is that he ruined my health. I cannot exercise or do physical work. I cannot go out in the cold. I cannot go out when the wind is blowing because he turned my nose up so high that the wind goes in and hurts my nose. Even the wind from the fan can make my nose hurt. I went in to see him and I asked him "why he cut my nose" he said " I didn't cut it, I molded it." When I asked why he turned my nose up he asked me "Do you know what a Barbie is?" Eleven months after my surgery I called him to let him know that my nose was in so much pain. He said, 'It was nothing I did". My nose does not feel natural. He rebuilt my nose with what he took off. I feel like I was in this horrible accident and lost my nose.
I found out that there are no medical negligence attorneys in Tijuana. I found out that Mexican Nationals have no rights, Lucha Villa (a famous Mexican movie star) has no rights, Americans have no rights in Mexico. The plastic surgery doctors can do whatever they want to us and get away with it. Americans please do not go to Mexico to have plastic surgery. I wish I still had my healthy crooked nose. I cannot speak for all doctors in Mexico, but this doctor only cares about the money. He does not care if he seriously injures someone for the rest of their lives or if he disfigures you. I realize from personal experience that he does not have the schooling or the experience to be doing this and other surgeries. I am hoping to find other web sites in Mexico and in San Diego where I can warn others. I do not want anyone to go through the pain and suffering that I will be going through for the rest of my life. I am thankful that I found this website, but if anyone knows of other website, please let me know.
