Help with things to know before surgery? ! (dr afifi)

Hello everybody !!!! Me and my friend are both...

Hello everybody !!!! Me and my friend are both going through this experience so we decided to share a profile to let you know whats going on with both of us ! Ive been thinking about getting this done for a while now. I WAS dead set about Salama because I have seen him do awesome work ! BBUUUTTT.... after I sent my before pictures I received and email back that felt very generic. Something made me say look around more, I just felt I need to be 100% comfortable with my choice. Especially after I was asked from Salamas team if I wanted to give my deposit when they haven't even seen my pictures yet.... Anywho I am sure Salama would do a great job but I just wasn't 100% sure. So I decided to give DR. AFIFIS office a call today. I spoke to the patient coordinater who was a very very friendly informative woman who made me feel very comfortable. I don't know what it was she just seemed very genuine about helping me make the right decision. She said she was going to send me more pictures of Dr. Afifis work tomorrow and then I would send my before pictures in and we would schedule a phone consolation from there. Thats another thing something scares me about going all the way to Miami from Cali without having any sort of consultation with the doctor first. She also says she wouldn't do more than one a day because she wants to give that quality over quantity to her patients, which I love! Anywho my mind still isn't 100% sure but I will keep you guys posted !!!!!!

So Im going to try and post my before pictures...

Hi there. I'm so excited for your upcoming surgery with Dr Afifi. I called her office last week to schedule a consult but I haven't heard back from them yet. Did you have to wait for them to call you back?
Icey1 2 May 2013
Call again... They have two offices.

Hi love just coming to show support. Take your time finding your doctor, as he/she will be the one you entrust with your life and new booty. Idk about you but i cant afford 2nd and 3rd rounds, so all i have is one shot to get it right. My best advice is research research research. Look at as many before and after photos as well as the good and bad experiences other have posted about sx. I love your stomach and legs btw and not too shabby in the butt area either i saw a cuff ;). Becareful if u choose Campos tho, he has amazing results but lots of girls in mex get bad infections not to scare anyone just be well informed. God bless you on your journey!
BIRTHDAYCAKE 30 Nov 2012
Hey girl :) thanks for the love
BIRTHDAYCAKE 30 Nov 2012
Hey girl thanks for the love :) I'm def not going to mex not anything against it really I just wouldn't trust it.. I'm between jimmerson and afifi :) have you chosen a doc yet ??
CurvesAhead 30 Nov 2012
Im scheduled May 9th :) Dr. Salzhauer in Bay Habour. I did ALOT of research and after my skype consultation with him i knew he was my guy. I paid for a bbl and lipo in 7 areas which was all inclusive in my quote, Which i liked becuz most Dr. charge $500+ for every additional area after the first 3 sites. Jimmerson is a good pick he is deff the bootyman right now, defying the laws of physics lol. If u want him the sooner the better becuz he's already booked way into next year.
