I started my journey in 2013 but became pregnant after deciding to get operated.
I'm 32 and I have 4 beautiful kids, my last 2 were C-sections and that totally changed my body. I have been working out but my biggest issue is my stomach. I finally got my tubes tide, cut and burn lol so I'm 100./. ready for my tummy tuck.
I have 3 Doctors in mind.
Dr. Medina
Dr.Duran
Dr. Yily.
No the only was has so far responded very quick by the way was Dr. Medina and was very to the point.
After evaluating my photos she said she recommended the TT with Lipo of lower/upper back, flanks and waist and the bbl. Now Dr.Medina wants a $500.00 deposit, yikes.. On most reviews on here I have seen that the deposit is $250.00/$300.00 but she's asking for $500.00 and the remaining balance is due 48 hours before surgery. Any of you girls have any idea if she up her deposits???
She quoted me $4500.00 for just the procedures mentioned but it went up to $5350.00 with recovery stay, med and transport.
I have researched these 3 doctors and they all have done great work but I'm still awaiting for Dr. Duran and Dr.Yily to get back to me. I'm so excited that I'm finally getting my TT, my poor hubby is tired of hearing my babble all the time about my TT.... I will keep updating as I get responses from other Docs and in my quest for my 2017 TT!!!

I'm going with Yily..My quote was 6,000 with a 300 deposit...TT, liposuction of the flanks, back, waist, stomach, armpit (bra area), breastlift with implants and BBL. The cost includes the RH transportation to and from airport and Dr visits, 3 meals 2 snacks per day, compression garment (1) almost everything except the insurance and a few other things. Her quote was the highest but it was precise and to the point clear and detailed. I received 3 other quotes about 300-500 cheaper but the work wasn't as detailed and the RH wasn't included. I chose Yily because her work is ideal to my body shape. I'm 6ft tall 235-40lbs but my BMI 31 and I'm a size 14/16. Be patient and make sure the DR is providing you wit what best works for your body. At the end of the day it's still cheaper than the states. Don't get caught up in prices and deposits.
Good luck

Hey hun. Yily is a great Dr. but 1 she's too busy and does in my opinion too many girls a day and 2 she gives a more exaggerated result... I'm looking for something more natural if that makes sense. When are you scheduled for your sx?

Narrowing it down to Dra. Baez & Dra. Medina
I will tell you that Dra. Medina and Dra. Baez are both very professional and respond in less than 24 hours. I was set with Dra. Medina but now I'm not sure, because Dra. Baez on top of giving me a better quote she gave me a more detailed explanation of everything and I saw her work on here and she does good work. Medina offers recovery house in her package but I don't know which recovery house she works with.. Baez doesn't offer recovery house but I have gotten 2 quotes so far that are in my budget. De la paz and Maria's recovery home are the 2 so far I'm considering...Any ladies stayed at these recovery homes or can recommend a good one?

I reached out to her in the beginning of my search for a surgeon but she only responded once with a quote and that was it, so I moved on. But I have seen great outcomes from Dra. Baez.
October 21, 2016
From what you said I think Dr. Baez sounds like the best fit. Just because she went into details and took time to inform you more. Plus, I believe another girl I chat with used her and was happy. I'll look it up and let you know.

Plus thing about it. Dr.Baez gave you a better quote maybe because she didn't lump in the recovery stay. Now you have control over finding just the right place to stay at and don't feel that decision is made for you. Win Win. What if you were happy with your surgeon but wished you stayed somewhere else. Recovery is so important the first night especially. Now u can look around for that perfect fit.

Made my disicion!
I've been a realself stalker lol. Checking out profiles, before and after's, and especially DR surgeries.
There are quite a few good doctors in DR but I have made my final decision to go with DR. Tactuck.
After coming across some profiles on here which Dr. Tactuck I loved his work and the way he responded back! I'm so excited everyday I keep thinking it's a day closer lol... Granted I'm 7-8 months away, I just want Jan 2017 to be here already. Now I have scheduled a consult with a teaching hospital close to me. They are known for performing plastic surgery for half or more of the prices plastic surgeons charge here in the US. I just want to exhaust all my options here where I live and reside. I'm about having a plan A and a plan B just in case. I keep working out and try to watch my portions, I'm at 165 right now and I expect to be down to 150's by my surgery date. I don't want to be too thin cause I carry my weight well proportioned. Dr. Tactuck said I'm a perfect candidate for a TT with Liposculpture. My biggest problem area for me is my stomach, I seem to be able to tone everything else but my stubborn tummy won't give in,lol.. After 4 kids and 2 C-sections who wouldn't.. But I'm patient and this time next year I will be a total different story so I can totally wait 8 months.
