Well I fly down to Colombia tomorrow with my girlfriend. We will be there for 3 weeks I'm getting procedures done and she is vacationing and keeping me company. I have talked with Dr.Campbell once over the phone and asked a lot of questions. Which he answered and I feel very comfortable with him. I have been back and fourth with his office and they are great. I was nervous in the months leading up but now I'm more just excited and want to enjoy the process! I have gained weight unfortunately from when I sent my photos probably about 15 lbs. looking forward to eating fruit and not seeing snow !

I wish you a safe and successful journey! So nice that your friend is able to accompany you on the trip. Are you planning on sharing photos?

Yeah it's nice but to be honest the care is so good I would have been totally fine alone. The ladies are like family now

Yes I will it's 1 day post Op and I'm very swollen and sore. Just chilling. In the recovery house it is a must !

My motive is the same too, to stay away from snow. I am by my self here but I stayed at the hospital for 3 days. So I had help moving around for those days. Now I am alone on x_mas eve in my hotel missing everyone lol . Do you mind.if I ask you the cost for your procedures. Coz I came allover her for better price it cost me around 8000 without the transportation

Hi I'm getting closer to my date for surgery it's in June. I wanted to bring someone with me for support do they charge you to have someone stay with you like my husband for example?

Yeah it's only like 20 bucks more a night US. Honestly if I did it again I would do it on my own and not being a friend. But it might be nice with your husband. But they take very good care of you and it might not be pretty but they don't mind.

Thank you! Dr.Campbell told me the same thing about coming out there by myself. He said I would be well taken care of. I guess I'm just getting nervous now that its getting closer to my date! Thank you for sharing your story !

Recovery house is a must. So amazing and you get well taken care of. Had surgery yesterday 8L of lipo breast lift and implant and fat transferred into my lips.
Went into surgery yesterday at 10am left the hospital at 7pm. Had a team of 6 amazing doctors and nurses, I wasn't too nervous they give you something similar to Ativan. I was cracking jokes until I was out. Woke up very cold yelling to the nurse "nurseo" it sounded Spanish to me !!! She gave me the most amount of morphine and I just had to concentrate on relaxing. Left the hospital with one of the Premium nurses she was with me for 24 hours caring to my every whimper. Such lovely people. Anyone coming alone you have nothing to worry about. I actually would rather have come alone now that I'm here. Today I am walking relaxing sitting. Very sore and very swollen bad manageable!

Did they lose your bags at the airport? I hope that doesn't happen to me.

Yeah they lost them it's been such a hassle I highly suggest packing a good carry on including flip flops and a bathing suit. It's taken them since the Dec 22. Brutal. One of the ladies that works for Premium is an angel and was on the phone for hours trying to get some where.
December 23, 2016
That is what I am afraid off. So I am packing a carry and check one in. I am packing 7 sets of clothes in my carry on and the rest in the other. I am sure though what to pack as far as for the surgery. Do you any suggestions? Thanks by the way for posting your experience. It helps me know what to expect.

Sorry typing on my cell. I meant to say I am not sure what to pack for surgery.

Honestly buy everything here soooo much easier the girls will take you and know exactly what you need. Takes up to much space and time before you go.
December 23, 2016
Thank you for letting me know. I will do that. :)

Feel better today less swollen. Virginia came and gave me a massage and Nicolas came and helped me in the shower. Feel sad cuz it's Christmas Eve and I'm alone. My friend went off to the Rosario islands. I understand but still. The pain is fine it's just a sore kind of pain, and bruising has started. Mostly bruising and sweeping on my pubic area.
Here are my boobies. Lollipop lift with 340 CC.
