6 month review

WORTH IT$5,000
6 months has really flown by. I have continued eating healthy and the new body Dr. Arevalo gave me has really motivated me to work hard in the gym.
The reason I choose Dr. Arevalo is because he operated on a friend of mine and the results were NATURAL and amazing.
I'm not a fan at all of abdominal sculpting. In my humble opinion it does not look natural and I could easily tell if someone had abdominal sculpting as it looks like pockets of fat. I am also scared of what it would look like in a few years if I put on weight (fat).
The surgeon confirmed that with the fat gone getting abs would not be difficult.
I am very very very happy with my results, it looks very natural which is what I wanted.
Dr. Arevalo is an amazing, caring and very honest surgeon. He took his time to truly listen to what I wanted.
He has given me a body that exceeded my expectations. He is truly an artist and a gifted surgeon.

hi, sorry for a dumb question but did you go for abdominal sculpting as well? the reason i ask is cause you mentioned you are not a fan of it but it does look like you have some great abs. how long did it take you to recover after the surgery? and are there any marks left from the surgery?
thanks and you look great :)

Hi, the doctor did a good job at removing all fat and gave me a great start.

I was up and about after two days but didn't start back the gym until week 5 after surgery. I wore my garment for 6 weeks.

After 4 months of gym and eating very healthy the abs started to show.

There are two small incisions in the front (too low to see with clothes on, one below chest (nearly completely faded), one lower back and one middle back. They are barely noticeable. Doc also told me no sun for 3 months to ensure scars don't darken.

How long did you have stay in bogota?

I had to stay in Bogota for 5 days post surgery. I went with my family. By day 2 after surgery I was walking around the different malls and parks.

If you don't mind me asking, what was the cost (in addition to your procedures) for the week long stay?
April 10, 2016
Hey man, great results! Was there any loss of feeling on your abs? If so, for how long? I ask cuz I just did a chin lipo and I have practically no feeling on my neck but it was prewarnedand expected it. I used a lazer liposuction technology. I wanted to see if vaser has the same effect.

I was going to ask the very same thing! How much for travel costs, lodging etc. Also was the $5,000 inclusive of surgeon's fee, anesthesiologist fee and overnight stay in the hospital, or did you have to pay extra for any of that? Thank you!
September 25, 2016
Yep everything was included.

Hi guys, well I just took my binder off and had a shower with the help of a personal nurse the hospital provides.

Took a quick pic, I'm still swollen and a lot of liquid is coming out I'm blown away with the results. Where have my love handles gone??? Will update with more pics later on.

Day of treatment

All dond

I got to the hospital this morning for 7am. The hospital is a new hospital that specializes in plastic surgery. Said my goodbyes to my wife then they wheeled me upstairs. Dr Arevalo came to greet me and answer any final questions. I was then taken to a room where Dr Arevalo marked out the areas needing Lipo, neck, chest, abdomen, flanks and back. I was then taken back to the recovery room and taken into the operating theatre.
I was out to sleep and woke up in the recovery room. I was in pain so the nurse added morphine to my drips and the pain disappeared. I was kept in the recovery room for a few hours (safety reasons) when wheeled down to my room where my wife met me. I woke up in a binder so I have no idea how I look but will post pictures tomorrow.

Hi, I just underwent the same treatment yesterday ' Vaser Liposuction ' at 64 Harley Street , Linia Cosmectic Surgery. My goodness the pain today ! I had my under chin , chest , flanks & abdominal area ' Sucked ' lol
Must say the set up was fantastic ! Very well looked after. A lot of swelling ! They removed 2 and a half litres I'm told . Told not to shower for 2 days which I hate as love my morning showers..but looking forward to my results & getting rid of the pain.
