This weekend I have made the decision to go forth with a bbl and bl. I have been on hcg injections for 2 weeks and have hated every second if it. Normally when I am losing weight working out is the only fun part since I can't do that on the hcg it's been awful. A life sully based on obsessing about your next meal is not for me. Plus when I lose weight my boobs deflate n butt flattens... Who the hell wants that. I figure I will have the procedure done and then manage my weight from there. Ultimately I want defined abs. Which I intend on achieving po. I have always been thick on bottom but would perfer a rounded brazilian butt. not really interested in a self as it looks unnatural to me.
Bbl and bl are my best option. I currently am 5'9" large build 42" 34" 47" and 207. Dra. Yily's exceptional work and great price makes her my doc of choice. I have requested a quote and waiting to her back.
Ok so it seems like there is a back with Dra...

The price for fat grafting to buttock/BBL and liposuction of abdomen, armpit, back, flanks, waist is 3000$USD. It also includes 1 compression garment, pre-operatory tests.
Has anyone done all that plus Chin and Arms? What was the experience?
As of right now I want to add Chin and arms lipoed, the massage, the second garment, extra sleeve compression, and meds. With all that included price will be $3880.
Now that I have the quote I am nervous about going to the DR for a surgery. Hopefully nothing tramatic will happen but it is a concern.
I don't Think I'm interested in the butt...

Dra Yily quoted 3000. As expected Dra Duran was a bit more at 3500. I understand her prices are higher ...still a great deal. Dra Duran has great skills! I'm am so happy!
I am thinking of writing a separate review since this wont let me change it to Duran.
New Doc I'm researching.

This was the email:
Thank you for thinking of me for an evaluation of plastic surgery, for realization of all the surgeries you requested the most important thing is that you must be healthy and the cardiologist must approve that we can perform all procedures. I can perform lipo to your back, flanks and waist and the fat from that lipo can be injected to your buttocks, this will give you a curvier and better look. The price for the surgeries that you are requesting and I recommend you to have: lipo to abdomen, waist, back, flanks and Brazilian butt lift (fat transfer to butt) is US$ 2,700, which includes:
-Airport pick up
-evaluation by plastic surgeon
-Chest X-ray
-EKG
-Cardiovascular evaluation
- Laboratory exams
-Anesthesia
-Surgeries
-Overnight stay in the clinic
-First compressive garment
-Free of charge follow ups
-Medication post-surgery
-lymphatic drain massages and ultrasound massages which are included
The amount of fat transfer to your buttocks depends on how many cc can be extracted with liposuction. Your results also depend on your hemoglobin level if you want to get excellent results you really have to be healthy and no anemia. I recommend you to begin taking vitamins (C and B complex, folic acid, iron) and please ask your primary can doctor to take some blood test like glycaemia, full blood cell count and creatinine at least to know if you can have all surgeries done. You should need to stay in Santo Domingo for at least 10 days. You have to come the day before your surgery date to have lab work and evaluation done, so there is no problem if you want August 1.
If you need transportation or a recovery house (prices from $75 per day) we can offer these services with an additional fee.
Questions or doubts about the price or the elements included in your surgery package just email and I will reply as fast as I can.

Last night around 10pm I sent Dra Australia I list of question that everyone should be asking their surgeon. The next morning all my questions were answered. I was AMAZED!! Please see the question and answers below:
How many of these surgeries have you performed? I don’t have in mind how many surgeries I have performed but I think that more than 100 per year
What other medical staff will assist with the procedure? I have my personal assistant (a doctor but doesnot work on surgery room) he is in charge of clinical consulting, nurses, my surgery assistant, anesthesiologist, cardiologist and a plastic surgeon if I must perform more than three surgeries on a patient.
Where will the procedure be performed? I work on Instituto de Cirugia Especializada, I do have privileges at this hospital, I work on Cipla but upon request by patient
Do you have hospital privileges to perform this procedure? (and at which hospitals?) I work on Instituto de Cirugia Especializada, I do have privileges at this hospital, I work on Cipla but upon request by patient
What type of anesthesia will be used during the procedure? Anesthesiologist is who chooses and discuss anesthesia with the patient, he can use epidural block or general anesthesia.
What are the risks associated with this procedure? Plastic surgeries are safe in experienced hands, risk for complication are lower than in other elective surgeries (less than 10%), minor complications can occur after surgery but is not common.
What is your complication rate with this procedure? My complication rate is similar to other surgeons but thanks to God I haven’t had any major complications.
How many times have you performed the procedure? I don’t have a number but liposculture is a very common procedure I can perform two or more surgeries in a week.
Who will assist in the procedure? Their qualifications and training? My assistants as I told you before are all doctors and nurses; I perform all my procedures so you don’t have two worry that someone who is not a plastic surgeon will do your surgery, that is why I only have two patient per day. All doctors are licensed and experienced.
What is involved in the procedure? How is it performed? Techniques of surgery vary from one patient to another, every patient is different so I cannot tell you till I evaluate you what technique will be used.
Are you insured for malpractice? Yes, I am insured and you can ask for a surgery insurance if you wish, it is not included with the quote
Who will administer and monitor the sedation? Time can vary depending on what surgeries you will have done but is generally from 2 to 4 hours
How long will the procedure last? I can tell you exactly how many hours you will be sedated, anesthesiologist discuss your anesthesia and he chooses what suits you better, if you are awake (epidural block) you will be numb and won’t feel pain till a couple of hours after surgery
How long will it take to recover in the facility before discharge? Recovery varies, you may be able to feel fine after a week but you won’t be able to have all regular activities till 2nd week postsurgery.
Where will the surgery take place? Instituto de Cirugia Especializada is my hospital, surgery will be performed there. We have an ICU in case of emergency if you need a treatment that can be provided you might be move to another specialty clinic like plaza de la salud or cedimat.
What post-operative medicine be necessary? Antibiotics and analgesic are the main medicine, gastric protection, multivitamins, topical antibiotics and treatment for helping to close your wound are also necessary.
Will there be noticeable scaring Liposculture generally have scars hidden under your bra and underwear.
Will you perform the procedure from the first cut to the last stitch? am always from the beginning to the end in all my surgeries
What are the risks associated with this procedureRisks for surgeries are the same DVT, hemorrhage, infections, they rarely occurred if you are evaluated and treated right.
What are the warning signs or concerns to watch for? I explain you what signs can be of infection or a major complication when you are discharged, I also keep in touch with you after surgery in order to check everything is going ok
Ish is getting real! Flight is booked
