Shocking new video from Sarina Valentina!!

[gmercer]

I saw this video last night, and it made me so sad. I remember when she reappeared as Sarina after a break of a few years from first bursting on the scene, and her hips and butt were noticeably rounder. I worried that she may have done silicone injections to get that new look, and it turns out that was the case. Hopefully she can get that stuff removed and get back to good health.

Maybe some of the ladies can answer this, but I've been reading about fat transfer, where they use your own fat from one place in the body to inject in places where you want a rounder look. Is that the safer alternative to sil? I know that some of the fat may be absorbed so it might require multiple procedures to get the desired look. So is it simply a matter of money, where fat transfer is more expensive, or is it that fat transfer just doesn't work compared to direct silicone injections?

Wish her the best, never met her but she sounds like a nice girl.
Thats why I better stay the way I am and stay away from these kind of problems.

A topical issue as we have the problem in the UK with the French PPI implants. It now looks like the advice will be to have them removed but should the UK's National Health Service pay for all of those removals?

I say no. Woman who had implants done privately for cosmetic reasons should, IHMO, get them removed at their own expense. On the other hand, women who had reconstructive surgery on the NHS following, for example, a mastectomy, should certainly have the removal paid for. Were she in the UK, Sarina could probably argue her surgery was part of her transition and hence not simply cosmetic.

I think the problem is that very few if any PPI implants were used by the NHS and the issue is with private plastic surgeons, famously, poorly regulated in the UK.

I see where you are coming from. I don't know how the UK works, but in the US, we have something called the FDA which regulates and lets us know if certain products should be OK to use. If the breast implants were approved to be OK to use and sold to the public with an FDA approval on them, then if we had socialized health care, I think it would be the governments responsibility to take care of the people who trusted in the FDA to tell them its safe to use when they turn out to be harmful. If the UK has anything like the FDA and approved the implants to be OK to use, they should be taking care of those people who trusted in the government to give a seal of approval on a product.

However, in a case like this where the person chose to put things in their body that everyone knows is harmful....I dunno.

What Sarina says at the 9:24 minute mark, "I don't have health insurance." This is why we need universal public health care. Everyone, especially Sarina now, needs care. We need it. Americans want it. Why don't we have it? I think it may have something to do with concentrated private capital -- ha ha!
Anyway, public health care is about kindness and compassion. It's also more efficient and brings about better results....
I mean, even President Obama's own mom was fighting with insurance companies when she was literally dying of cancer.
And Obama said in 2003 he was in favor of single payer:

I think you're forgetting ask another question. Sarina doesn't have health insurance!? So she is not making any money doing porn? Her site isn't creating any income? I think we need to question the TS industry for underpaying girls.

Its not about underpaying people. We make hundreds of dollars an hour for the work that we do. Its just that there isn't enough work out there to afford things like health insurance unless you escort or venture into working behind the camera to generate more work for yourself. Especially for the girls who think they are worth more than other girls and end up getting even less work because they ask for too much. Not only that, but as you can see most of these girls rather spend money on vanity.

I wish Sarina the best of luck and I also wish she would come in here too.

Sarina escorts part time, so its not that she does not make money... I don't do porn and i feel that I'm well off with 800 a sessions, plus my main income with my benefactors... it's not about the money because health insurance just makes it harder for ts because on regular basis of hormones we are considered risks, I had to find a loophole to get my insurance, I have benefactors in the us and in europe and I found a way to get insurance in europe plus i find service there way better!

I just feel that ts women should think about the future as soon as they start making income, because the future really does matter and they forget to live in the future as oppose to living now...

I wish Sarina all the best for a successful recovery.

shame this sucks she is a very attractive very nice sounding girl.
Sadly she is right the only way to take it out is to pull it out...not very good and not very easy and not pretty.
We are talking about some very serious scarring It's a shame because she has a beautiful body which is her means of income.
Poor girl I hope she feels better ASAP!

So who do you trust?

If not everybody has good health-care and sometimes your friends are stupid or you get bad advice on the Internet or a silicon injection pusher. who should you trust for advice?


Let's face it there are alot of conflicting voices in these forums and the trans community. I never had doubts that you should not pump aquarium glue into my hips, but what if all my friends are doing it? I might think it is ok and safe.


Like EvonRose said 'think about the future'. How do you know when you have the right group of advisors for your transition? How do you know when you have advisors with the right prospective.


I would recommend at lest the following folks be in your network.
1. A mentor - somebody who has been were you are and is now where you want to be and will give you "how to" and "how not to" advice.
2. Technical expert - somebody who will give you competent medical advice (doctor or clinic councilor) as long as they have above average medical knowledge.
3. A friend - somebody who is willing to tell you when you are making a mistake, but will stand by you even if you make it.


I think with this group at least two of the three would have said silicone in your butt is a very bad idea.
