BEST Plastic Surgeon in Colombia!!!

I would like to start off by saying that I am 100% satisfied with my results along with the customer service Dr.Montes (@Dr.ChristianMontes)-Instagram and his team have provided to me. I am a 19 year old female located in Miami, FL. I have traveled to Cartagena, Colombia for my procedure. I decided to have a Brazilian butt lift with abdominal etching. Doctor Marian Peña was the person who coordinated my whole trip. Within my time in Miami I communicated with Marian for all the information from cost of the surgery itself, along with stay accommodations, and the package of the garments, socks, post op lymphatic massages, insurance policy, and the medicine. She was VERY helpful in explaining all the details of the overall experience to me and my mother. Every individual patient is different however, my procedure itself was priced at $3,500.00 USD. The stay accommodations including food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) was priced at $1,500.00 USD. And lastly the package with the socks, post op massages, insurance, and medicine is priced at $1,000.00 USD. This totaled my trip to approximately $6,000.00 USD. I do recommend to pay in cash being that if you pay via credit card you will be charged a fee. This price does not include my flight. Flight fares are separate. I do recommend all patients to bring extra cash just in case if you decide to stay extra time or if you would like to purchase personal items as well. I arrived on September 3rd, 2018. You have to wait approximately 3 days after flying for surgery. Within these 3 days I walked around Cartagena with the AMAZING lady I was staying with, Milena Argel. We went to Caribe Plaza, El Centro, and to the pool in her building. Milenas home felt like the complete 5 star experience. The food she prepared was absolutely delicious and the home had air conditioner along with fans and a nice balcony with a view to walk around. I had my private room with WiFi, TV, and Netflix. I honestly felt at home the entire time I was there. The day of surgery came upon us and I was extremely nervous but Dr.Montes assured me that everything was going to turn out just fine. Once I woke up from surgery I felt a lot of pressure on my body but overall fine. It is absolutely important to eat and stay hydrated within the recovery phase. And to walk as much as you can for blood flow. The next day it was time for my first massage early in the morning. It was very painful however its better to pull through and hold as much as you can. Mostly because you feel way better and thinner after every massage. I honestly had the BEST esthetician in the world. Katherine Paez (@KatherinePaezEstetica)-Instagram. She did all of my massages with lots of patience and care. Within the whole time I was in Colombia she answered all of my questions and addressed all my concerns. I did a total of 17 massages (the more the BETTER) The goal is to go home with no liquid. My experience was honestly 1000 times better because of Katherine. She was very attentive to everything I needed. Even when I got back to Miami she kept on messaging me asking for pictures to see my recent results. She truly cares about her patients and takes her job to another level. Her recommendations on what you need to do to obtain the best results possible must be followed. To be honest this is an entire long process. At first I was so worried with my results thinking my booty wasn't large enough but that is due to swelling and inflammation. As you obtain more massages and drink more water you will see a drastic change in your body (the waist to be exact.) This concludes my overall review upon Doctor Christian Montes. My immediate recommendations are to request Marian Peña to coordinate your trip, Katherine Paez for all of your massages and esthetic needs, and Milena Argel for your accommodations. I felt at home with a 5 star experience. I am very happy and thankful that I have been healing beautifully. If anyone has any further questions feel free to contact me via real self. I will be posting more pictures later on this week.
