Amazing Experience - Mommy Makeover! Colombia, CO

When I was younger, plastic surgery was a 'taboo'...

When I was younger, plastic surgery was a 'taboo' for me and I thought I would never consider having a procedure done, until I had a kid and realized that no matter how much exercise I did and how good I was with my eating, the extra skin and the saggy boobs were not going to change. I decided to do something for myself and contacted Premium Care. Caro immediately called me on my cell and we had a wonderful chat. She made me feel a lot more relaxed about the 'mommy makeover' procedures and I felt safe! The information provided prior to my surgery was great. Then I traveled to Cartagena and had my first appointment with Caro. She was amazing and her staff was fantastic as well. The surgery went great and I had no pain whatsoever even though I had multiple procedures (breast implants, tummy tuck and lipo). When I think back about the surgery, it actually gives me great memories! The care I got after my surgery was outstanding as well and I had my lymphatic drainage massages for the following 10 days. I enjoyed every single one of them! Today, I feel and look amazing and I would never regret my surgery! I recommend Premium Care 100% to anyone considering having plastic surgery! Best doctors, best staff, great location.

Welcome to the community and thanks so much for offering your opinion of your doctor.

It would be great if you could give us a little more detail about your experience, like why you had the surgery, your tips for getting good results, pros/cons, and info on the recovery process.

Our community members especially love seeing photos from before, during, and after — a realistic look at what they can expect. Photos grab the attention of the community and encourage more support for you.

As a community manager, I get requests all the time from other members who want me to to keep encouraging people to share their experiences, which are so helpful for others considering these procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.

Do you have photos? Also, where did you stay while recovering?

I will get some photos and upload them once I have a change. I stayed at the OZ hotel, right beside the clinic. It is a small hotel, but super nice and clean!

Thank you so much! I've just recently started searching and was so excited to find them.

How long did you stay in Colombia after your surgery?

September 18, 2015
Hi, I stayed for 10 days after the surgery. I was able to walk slowly the next day and after a few days, I was even doing a bit of sightseeing! :)

Wow! I can't wait to see your result, I am also considering dr restrepo in Colombia next year sept, glad you had a great experience, they took your drains out before the 10 days or did you have to leave with them, and how was your hemo levels, and the travel back home

Hi!~ You will love her!
They took the drainage on the 9th or 10th day, it was all good! The travel home was actually way better than I expected. Even though it was a long trip back, I made it with no issues!!! 10 days is enough, but if I have had an opportunity to stay a bit longer, I probably would :)
