From a Small B to a Full C Hopefully! - Miami, FL

Sched with Dr Freiman at Coral Gables in Miami. Flight paid for, room paid for. Deposit paid to lock in appt. I am also interested in lipo to full back, waist and abs. Was curious about the BBL but the recovery time and the garmets sound horrid! Have been reading post and researching doctors on the web. Yily is who I hear about most in here I think. I Liked pics of Dr. Pazmino work. Considering price and location though. I'd rather not have to go back to Miami and Dominican Republic seems too far. I am very interested in Dr Pantoja. I live in Texas and it sounds like his office isn't very far from Cali border. Any advice would be much appreciated. If I could get the small waist, im prob 33" in waist and 39.5 in hips. Would love to get even just a small amt to the sides of my glutes to give me a curvier figure. Projection is not that important to me. Ugh I'm so undecided!!!!

I sent dr yily an email last week with pictures I believe. I've been researching dr Pantoja because of the distance and his reviews. I can't find many pictures of his work though! Ugh. Yily's pictures are amazing for the most part. I don't have to have a video chick booty as long as I can get the waist of most yily patients. I've initiated passport, :) but haven't decided where to go yet. I want lipo to ful back, full abdomen,possibly a TT or mini, and maybe a bbl! I am frightened about the recovery and those darned garments! How do I reach yily? I'm getting my husband to take before pics of me to send to Pantoja tonight. Does anyone know where I can see more pics of pantojas work? Please help. Having BA 4/9/13. Wouldn't mind waiting til June or July for yily or Pantoja. Just want to get the ball rolling and date set! Thank you in advance!

Super excited! Hoping lipo to abs and flanks is aggressive enough to make a noticeable difference in the way clothes fit. As far as my BA, I'm leaving it up to the doctor. I know saline for sure, under muscle, and high profile, 400-500cc(yikes). Not sure of incision site yet, I definitely don't want axillary though. Dr Freiman seems like a straight shooter, knowledgeable and down to business. Ready for the hard part to start, recovery. Laying in bed with hubby n baby waiting for alarm to get us up and rolling. Picking up prescriptions and heading for procedure in a couple hours.

Pain Pain Pain. OMG. Too soon to see real results but I am definitely pleased with what I see so far. I never knew how much you use your pecs til now. Sooooo sore. I think lipo hurt less than the BA.

Healing, heading in the right direction. Lipo pain/discomfort is minimal. I'm super happy and eager to see eventual results, especially when I start working out. I was a little anxious about my breast implants being 500cc but I think it will definitely suit me once they settle. I'm glad I trusted Dr Freiman to advise me on what I should get for the look I wanted.

everyday I'm feeling better. Still have pain with some movement/activity. I think my breast have dropped a little more. My husband says they definitely have. Still some numbness under nipples and nipples are very sensitive/tender to touch. Trying to be faithful with wearing compression garment for lipo. It's hard but when I think about how much I loved the results post op I try to do better to keep results, especially since I can't workout and my appetite is crazy! Feeling really tired and sluggish some days so I can't wait to be able to get back to the gym. Happy Healing Everyone!

Pulling stitches were not fun. Loving results more and more everyday. Can't wait to fully "drop" and "fluff". Hopefully won't look much bigger because I love the size they are now.
Great review?

as far as my BA, I chose Coral Gables initially for the price at first. I payed my deposit after Yadira sent me info on doctor. I love what I've seen so far of Dr Freiman. He did tell me that I didn't need the TT right now, I was shocked but not too disappointed because I am trying to still decide if I want to do a mini or full tuck anyways.

Are you getting silicone or saline? Over or under the muscle? Crease or armpit incision? Thanks.

Only had a virtual consult so far. I know saline for sure, but, I don't know about the position. Which ever is best to keep me from having a lift. I would prefer under arm. I have pre op consult before my procedure so I will have time to decide and sleep on it before I have surgery.
