SO happy

WORTH IT
Before the day of my appointment I was totally committed and ready to rock. The day of, I had cold feet like a runaway bride. I was terrified to take the leap. I spoke to Dr. Carmona & his unshakable confidence helped me commit. Obviously, this procedure was just another day for him and I was simply experiencing anxiety- I haven't ever gone under the knife for cosmetic reasons...let alone a local rather than general anesthetic. I tried to remain logical but my mind was running. I always had huge cheeks, even when I had lost significant weight in the past. Change would be a huge confidence boost. I asked him about a chin implant, but he didn't think I needed it & I was grateful for his honesty. We discussed how I wanted a more dramatic change than buccal fat removal might provide & we went ahead with chin lipo as well. I'm not going to lie, the local anesthetic was painful and uncomfortable, but after I was numb things were easier. I trusted him and am glad I did, because I look and feel like an upgraded version of my beautiful self. He showed me the fat during the surgery & although it was physically uncomfortable for me, it was relieving hearing him comment about how the results were looking great. I was so shocked that I committed but 2 weeks later, I am so damn grateful. Recovery was a breeze. I am so glad I chose this procedure and Dr. Carmona was fantastic. I forgot to mention that my wire transfer still hadn't reached them when I went to pay the remaining amount. Danny & Dr. Carmona had allowed me to move forward with the procedure regardless, to avoid being double charged. I am forever grateful for their integrity, and will be back again. Undoubtedly one of the best decisions I've made.

Hello, I'm thinking of doing the buccal fat removal procedure with Dr. Carmona in 3 weeks and wanted to check in to see how you're feeling/looking so far. Can you tell me how long the buccal fat procedure took? Can you give me an idea on price?

Thanks!
