Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Second Time around at age 45...

So sorry, it has been awhile but I'm back.

I must apologize for not reporting about my Tickle Lipo procedure.

First, let me say the Doctor was excellent. Dr. Yaniris Avellanet was amazing. During, the timeframe at which I was preparing , she was in the middle of transitioning from Florida to Chicago. We talked multiple times on the phone before and after my procedure.

My first time, I underwent tickle-lipo on my upper and lower back, abdomen and flanks, it was called a "Bikini body special". The cost was around $5000. My overall opinion is that it was ok, but it did not give the results I was looking for. That is why i'm back again. This time Im going to get exactly what I want. "A NEW AND IMPROVED ME"

BBL, TT and full Lipo of back and inner-thighs, i'm planning to do this in the DR, with Dr. Medina. She seems to very nice and her work looks pretty good. I chose her because she is very personable and performs the procedures herself and she responds quickly and elaborately. alot of surgeries on he same day, so im hoping she can pay close attention and give me the results I want.

Hopefully, if everything goes okay, ill be there in March of 2016. Some of my co-workers are going to Dr. Yily during the same time.

I did It!!!

Well let me start by saying, I know why they call it "Tickle Lipo" I was actually laughing throughout the procedure. Dr. Avellanet is a gifted surgeon, she removed 1100 cc of fat, from my abdomen.
There were a few brief moments of discomfort, but NO PAIN....
The only discomfort I'm feeling now is the CG, I have a DMI garment that was Hell to put
Overall I'm glad I did this for myself, I will post pics tomorrow.

Counting down...

I cannot believe it, I have less than 24 hours left before I have my first procedure done. Im feeling ALL types of excitement. I've been up cleaning and preparing since 3:00 AM.... Took my antibiotics... I so ready.
