I received a consult in Bogota with a different surgeon. Be advised 3-4 days to get your body adjusted to the altitude, I have headaches for a few days after arriving in Bogota. How long did your Dr. advise to stay after surgery?

Really? I was just there back in March for 10days and the altitude didn't bother me at all. I am staying a total of 15days I leave on the 7th and come back on the 22nd
June 14, 2015
You're fortunate! My husband, daughter and myself have terrible headaches for the first few days, maybe it's because we're used to flat Florida. I was told 15 days as well. Please keep us updated! :)

I am also considering Colombia for my surgeries...just waiting on price from Dr.Lina Triana...she comes highly recommended from a plastic surgeon of a good friend of mine who is from Colombia. She is the vice president if the plastic surgeon society of Colombia!!

Does the quote you received of $5200 include the lift as well? Accommodations and transfers to appointments and from airport?

Surgery only. I have a friend in Bogota that will pick me up from the airport and take me wherever I need to go.However I have decided the past few days that I am going to stay in a recovery home for the first three days after surgery I was told the cost will be 230,000 pesos per night. If I'm feeling up to it after the third day and I will go back with my girlfriend to her home. I was also advised it will be an additional $200 for medicines and $80 for testing

Just received a email confirming my consultation appointment the day I arrive in Bogota! I am advised my surgery will be July 9th at 7am. The past few days I have been prepping for pre op and post op. I bought some maxi dresses (these dresses are amazing..sooo comfy) scar oil, arnica gel, boppy pillow, iron supplements, wipes, ensure, tylenol and stockings. If anyone can help with anything else I should buy please let me know!

Hi! As for what to pack, you've done good. Here's some items to add: tank tops or camisoles that are of smooth fabric (not ribbed like the men's muscle tanks) 3 should do cause recovery house will do laundry often. XL maxi pads to use inside of your faja to avoid embossed lines onto your skin since it is healing and like clay during first month perhaps into second month as well. Mini back scratcher (try dollar store) cause ur back may itch and no one can relieve the exact spot like u can. Bromelain (microsize pills) to ease up bruising and swelling. I found these at Sprouts which is a heath food grocery store. An extra faja. I bought one from Caribbean Shape, Inc (Rebecca) in Richmond, Texas. I selected one that has a zipper which I favor vs the one Dra. Yily provides with a lot of mini hooks like the back of a typical bra hook. I packed a mini crossword book (dollar store item) to keep me busy. Mini hand sanitizer. Alieve (seems to work better than Tylenol for me anyway ;) ) A female urinal (CVS). Hit me up via a private message if u want my cell # as I am more than happy to answer any other questions u may have. Smiles! * Hope this helped.

Awesome thanks!! And yes Aleve seems to work wayyyyyy better than Tylenol for me too! As for the faja I plan on buying another in Colombia. Definitely going to get the Bromelain as I bruise extremely easy. And maxi pads yes I totally forgot. Thanks again!

Definitely, pack those spaghetti straps...they go under the girdle. I got mine in Forever 21, they are $1.90 cents. I specifically like those camis because they fit perfect on the body and they are not bulky. I strongly suggest you buy the girdle in Colombia, Dr. Juris has this place that designs them specifically for his patients. I looked around in Miami before leaving, and none of them compare to the ones he has to offer. You will definitely need maxi pads, also adult diapers, baby wipes, a gym bag to carry your stuff to post op, crocs, leggins but most importantly, the right attitude and mind set. As more things come up, I'll be happy to let you know.

Way ahead of you on the leggings! And yes faja for sure in Colombia! Diapers? Am I going to wet myself? Omg lol. But I'll def get some! What are spaghetti straps and crocs? These 3 things are the only stuff missing in my suitcase.. (Which is already being packed lol)

Thanks!

Diapers are for when you go from recovery home to post op massages in the morning... You will shower, put the diaper (not the girdle) and head for massages... Once the massages are done, they will help you with the girdle...the diaper is so that just in case you drain you're covered.

Spaghetti straps are the tank tops or camis...forever 21 has them for cheap... Crocs are the shoes, do you know which ones I'm talking about? I can take a picture and send them to you.

Hi allure i will be having a lipolaser next month with dr juris, can you please advise if you take pampers, underpad, pads, and the quantities? All these are neccesary?
User Avatar
August 14, 2015
Definitely necessary. I didn't take them with me though I bought once I was there because I had to pay for my luggage and it would've been a whole other bag. Buy bigger diapers as you will swell up. There are good for when going to your massages and the pads are for the incision sites they leak line crazy the first week. Make sure you have camisas ( thin tank tops no ribs or designs) you put these inside out under your faja they will hold the pads in place. Inbox with any questions if you like and gd luck! Your in great hands!

Thanks for your reply, how big are the scars for the lipo?

Tiny I wouldn't even worry about that lol
August 14, 2015
Do you just buy maxi pads? Like do you need to buy tape to tape them down too or how does that work? Thank u
User Avatar
August 14, 2015
Lol. No tape. Your tank top and faja keeps them in place no worries just make sure you buy em and get the big ones
August 14, 2015

August 14, 2015

During this time, (I didn't do well w/ this) try on several different undergarments or swim suits or outfits and snap. pre-post pix. Post-op you can put on same outfits to gage visual changes as you progress over time. ; {}
