I have decided to go with Yily. I have based this on a few things. 1. I have a butt and feel that an aggressive stomach and back lipo will make it look bigger. 2. It seems that the dissatisfied reviews of the more popular Docs are starting to increase. 3. cost of course is a factor. 4. Why not recover and vacation in 70 degree weather.
My quote for BBL is $3100, plus Recovery House at $100 per day for 12 days ( this includes 3 meals, Wifi, transportation to and from airport), Flights are around $500 round trip. Based on previous Yily reviews I don't think I will need to stay for 12 days. I have requested dates Dec 11th or 12th. I sent the request today and it normally takes her office 3 days to respond. I will update once the date is confirmed.
I received an email back from Dr. Yily and I am...

Requirements
1 - Passport
2 - $10 for Tourist card they only accept US dollars or Euros as a form of payment for the Tourist card.
3 - Cash for hotel stay in full
Airport- Arrived in DR at 4:30pm took about 1 hour to get tourist card and get through customs. Jacqueline and driver was waiting once I was done to take me to the hotel. They drive really fast here and lane jumping BUT if you like speed you will enjoy the ride.
Hotel- nice, clean and cozy, staff very nice. No hot water in my room.
Hotel payment- bring cash for the full amount of your stay. After settling in at the hotel you will be asked to pay for your stay in advance "CASH ONLY". This can be in US dollars or Peso.
Funds- only get Peso's if you plan to shop or take a taxi somewhere otherwise U.S dollars are fine.
Travelling in- if you are able to get that Jet Blue flight that gets there at 4:30am I would highly recommend taking it. You will be able to have your surgery that day therefore saving time and money in hotel fees.
Food- I had dinner at the hotel which was brought to my room. Chicken (thigh and leg) with mash potatoes. Im not sure if I was starving or the food was really good.
Supplements - took 1 Pien tze Haung
Good for inflammation, pain and swelling.

Arrived at CIPLA around 7:30 got
1. Blood work
2. X-rays
3. Visit with Cardiologist
I met with Yily she asked what size butt I wanted, I said medium.
Went to surgery around 12:30 there were 2 girls ahead of me.
After surgery- I started having scary hallucinations. I spoke with 3 other girls they had the hallucinations as well. They went away after about 3 hours. If you take any anti- depressants I would encourage letting your doctor and Yily know. A combination of your med and what ever she is giving could go terribly wrong.
Didn't eat all day wasn't hungry.
Only slept 2 hours last night.
Did not need pain meds
Did not take any supplements today

Great review?
My Doctor: Dr. Yily de los Santos
My rating:
Provided low rating on payment process because I was told I could pay with credit card but when I got there was told cash only or if I paid with credit card at the CIPLA it would be an extra 5.3% that's about $164 extra. So I had to call my bank and get the money wired.
