Went to Dra. Walkiris Robles for a Tummy Tuck, Lipo, & Fat Transfer to the Butt on 10/11/12 - Domincan Republic

WORTH IT$5,200

I was suppose to have a tummy tuck and a little lipo done here in Tampa, FL for around $7000. The price was good and I had faith in the doctor who was going to do it... but unfortunately things kept coming up and I was never able to get the entire amount. I always heard about people going out of the country to get plastic surgery and I also know someone who got a tummy tuck in the Dominican Republic and she looks great. Since it's more affordable and they actually know how to sculpt a women... I decided to do research and let me tell you it was stressful. I found a bunch of doctors but none of them were going to give me everything I wanted so it was between Dra. Robles and Dr. Cabral *king of barbies*. As some of you may know Cabral has burnt some of his patients. I have an 8 year old and he needs me so I don't want to be a burnt barbie or a dead barbie!! So I choose Dra. Robles and I'm happy with my decision. I hope and believe she will give me the best results. Pregnancy was not good to my stomach so I need a tummy tuck.

I also don't like my shape so the lipo should sculpt me to be more even and have a sexier shape than what I have now. The fat on my lower back, upper back, sides and where my armpits and breast meet will be sucked out. Then all that fat will be stuffed in my ass and hips. I also want her to do a little lipo on my upper stomach right below my breast cause it sticks out a little but we'll have to see. I love myself in the inside but can't stand the outside. Overall my goal is to be more even and fit into my clothes better. I don't want to spend whats left of my 20's looking like this so I'm going to go for it. Going out of the country is not a fear for me... I'm more than confident that this is the right decision!

The procedures are $5200 including the 10 day stay at the recovery house. I'm not just getting a tummy tuck... I'm also getting lipo and fat transfer. I still have to pay for my flight and anything I plan to bring with me.

Prkbhnd, hey it's me from the glam's forum. I found u! Wow! I'm happy to see that u started ur journey :-) I am definately going to follow u. I definately want to do my surgery with dr walkiris but I still need a few dollars more since I will be getting a tummy tuck breast implants lipo n butt transfer. So how long will u b in dr from the moment u get there until u leave? Because I was told that I have to stay twelve days but only 10 r included in the package. How r u feeling about the lipo part? Me I'm a bit scared of the pain to wake up too. Have u started the instructions about the vitamins to take? I started to cuz Raquel said the longer I take it, the better it will be for the lipo, until I confirm a date.

I want to blog this journey from beginning to end with all the details.
She told me 12 days. 1 day to arrive, 1 day to leave, and 10 days including surgery. I'm not scared about the lipo or the whole surgery for that matter. I just want to get it over with! I'm so excited. I'm also a student and summer semester just ended so I just started dieting today. I want to lose another 20lbs before I go... if not 15 will do. I'll have plenty of fat for her to transfer to my butt. I know its gonna hurt so I'm gonna bring a few Percocets just incase. No, I havent started the vitamins yet she said she would give me all the instructions in August. But for now I'm taking a multivitamin, calcium pyruvate, and probiotics so I'm as healthy as I can be before I go. I'm going to try my best.
July 22, 2012
Wow! That's great! Once u return after surgery r u going back to school immediately? By the way, the other 2 days besides the 10 that's included in the package, r u paying extra?
July 23, 2012
I'm gonna skip school to go and as soon as I get back I'm going to class. I know that sounds bad but there wont be another chance for me to go. As soon as I get the money... I have to leave! Last year my car broke down a month before my surgery and I had to pay $2500 to fix it. I'm not trying to have that happen again. All emergencies will have to wait till I come back! & no its only for the 10 days
August 22, 2012
it is only 85 dollars a day if u need to stay longer :)
July 23, 2012
Prkbhnd, so does that mean that ur staying for a total of 10 days? Sorry don't mean to sound slow, lol. Or is ur quote including the 10 days recovery n also the two to get there and come back. Just want to know cuz their quoting me only the 10 days to recover n the two to get there n to come back is extra that I have to pay. Thx Hun
July 23, 2012
it includes the surgery and 10 days. the other 2 I have to figure out
August 22, 2012
u should be able to stay longer at the recovery house if necessary u should ask around for another recovery house. I have heard some scary stories about some of the recovery houses make sure u do your research.
