After doing extensive research on plastic surgery and surgeons, I made the decision to travel alone from California to Colombia for my procedures, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I stayed for three weeks and felt supported every step of the way. I had Lipo 360, a BBL, arm and chin liposuction, and a breast implant exchange with a lift. From consultation through recovery, everything was organized, professional, and focused on patient safety. The nurses and staff were incredible. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and very caring. The recovery house was also top notch and made the healing process comfortable and stress free. Having experienced staff who understand post operative care, compression garments, and recovery needs made a huge difference. My doctor is truly amazing. He is very thorough, detail oriented, and he really listens. You can tell he prioritizes patient safety, natural results, and proper healing above everything else. I never felt rushed or pressured and always felt like I was in expert hands. If you are researching plastic surgery, medical tourism, BBL, liposuction, or breast implant revision, I highly recommend this doctor and his team. Traveling internationally for surgery can feel intimidating, but this experience exceeded all of my expectations.

Hi ladies. I'm booked for bbl with inner thigh lipo with Dr. Ortega for 1/22/21. I fly in from Toronto on the 17th until the 2nd of Feb. The booking process was very quick and straight forward and so far, Ortegas team has been really accommodating. Looking for a sx sister!

Booked for 1.19.21 getting mini tt, lipo 360 with j plasma and bbl with chin lipo. Looking for a surgery sx. Overall super excited and happy with Ortega’s staff and just the overall process! Super happy with my doctor choice just hoping to find a sx sister!

Hi everyone, I’ll be having surgery July 2020 (hopefully if all goes well despite COVID, will keep you updated) I’m staying at VIP CARE recovery house through Dr Ortega. (They gave me a great deal and I figured why not saves me the trouble of finding another RH). The process was easy to book, I had a friend who did her surgery back in 2018 and that’s why I decided to go with Ortega, plus all the reviews and YouTube videos I watched. My other option was Fisher in Miami. Updated on 27 May 2020: Hello, I originally booked for July 9th 2020 but it’s been reschedule to September because Colombia as you may know already has kept their borders closed till August 31st. They are very good with sending emailed updates about their procedures And flexible with their rescheduling dates Updated on 11 Sep 2020: Hi everyone, I was scheduled for July that got pushed back to September (going based off the opening dates for the country) turns out the regulations are not clear at all and the people there don’t even understand how the traveling restrictions work. from my understanding the borders are open for Colombian citizens and humanitarian work. So to be on the safe side since international flights have been cancelled I decided to move mine to October and play it by ear. Ortega’s staff has been really accommodating Updated on 29 Sep 2020: Back again lol. So you have to fill out this migracion form online before your flight. (For those who are going and acovid test 96hrs max prior to your flight). I will be leaving tomorrow 9/30 and surgery on the 6th of October (have to isolate for a few days supposedly) will take pictures of the recovery house etc

Hi, planning to travel to Cali Columbia for Lipo & bbl with Dr. Fernando Ortega. I wanted to see if anybody will be going around the same time (June 29th) I am looking for a SX sister ! I’m staying at imisrecoveryhome ! Updated on 15 May 2020: Hey dolls ! As of now my surgery date has changed. I am scheduled for July 2nd in hopes of Colombia opening up for visitors. I received soooo much important updates and surgery prep info from Dr.Ortega. I am completely blown away by their level of professionalism and how they keep me so informed. I am so much more comfortable with my choice after receiving all the paperwork from him and all the advice/surgery prep info. They have all bases covered ! So now we wait and I will begin to take all my vitamins, Exercise, and form good eating habits. (Since quarantine I’ve been totally slacking) I hope this helps Incase you are on edge or just nervous about your journey. I will keep updating as much as I can !!

Hello, I’m looking for a SX sister for June or July (most likely). I will be staying at the VIPRecoverHome also. I’m nervous and excited about getting my BBL, Lipo 369, Chin Lipo, Arm Lipo, & Inner Thigh Lipo. I do feel my quote for surgery alone is a little higher than most but it does include a nice package with the recovery home so I’m not complaining !! I love his work & one of his dolls YouTube reviews sent me to him. I’m all booked and now it’s the Wait game due to COVID-19

I was 23 I got 360 lips, arms, inner thighs & under chin. I’m one year post op. I’m very happy with my results I have no problems. My stomach it’s flat with no bumps or no fibrosis. My butt/hips were not overly done perfect size filled in my hip dips and gave me a beautiful coke bottle shape (just like I asked). The only thing is I have a little bit of fat & loose skin on my stomach. I wish the doctor would have mentioned the option of J-Plasma as I would have gotten it done with the lipo.So I’m going to go back to do lipo with J-Plasma. Also one spot under the ass/under the hip area there’s sort of a little bulge of fat, which my friend also has (not very noticeable but will lipo that part too) but over all his team is great. Massage lady Stephanie was great. He is a great doctor was very nice, listened to me & made me feel comfortable. I would go back to this doctor for sure.

Absolutely no regrets!! I am extremely ecstatic that ai chose Dr. Ortega. I did a 360 Lipo, with J plasma, arm and chin Lipo. I am in love with my results. He is extremely skilled and attentive and his bedside manners are superb. He takes time with your consultation to ensure that he understands what you want. I also stayed at his Recovery House, VIPrecovery and I received excellent care. The nurses are knowledgeable and attentive. As an added bonus the doctor comes to house and checks on his patients. He is also double board certified, which was another reason I chose him.

Made an inquiry and got a quote for 360 Lipo and BBL. right now I am trying to research more bodies dr.Ortega has done. However, all in all I'm 100% sure lll be going to him Anyone travelling in the new year (March/April) need a sx sister xx Updated on 3 Feb 2020: Hey guys!!!! Everythings booked now it’s the waiting game I have less than 8weeks to go and I’m feeling soooo nervous some days it feels far away but then other day im like dammmmmmmn it’s actually SOON!! (Only long because I’ve been planning from last year June).. every morning I wake up with butterflies and genuine happiness and now have a regular routine of eating breakfast, Lunch, dinner and snacks. As well as taking all my vitamins a minerals And I’m not going to lie I’ve started i feel more healthier.( before my re-birth has actually started lol ) [This will be my second round as I had my first one before I had my lil baby] I’ll try to keep you dolls and informed as possible x
