Hello everyone!
I just paid my deposit Friday to the surgicoordinator and booked my surgery with Dra Duran. I received a confirmation email but did not receive a response from Laura yet answering questions I have. I am hoping for the best! I just want to make sure I do everything correctly to prepare. Are their vitamins I am supposed to be taking prior to surgery? I am planning on only spending one night in a recovery house and a hotel with my boyfriend for the rest of the time in DR. Is anyone else planning on sx in 2017?

Days after surgery

Laura, Dra Duran's surgicoordinator told me 7 days after surgery will not be enough so I'll be staying for 10 days. She still didn't answer all of my questions, I am anxiously waiting to hear back!

I'm still saving up to get it done around july. My hubby is coming with me so I'm also curious about the housing situation. Also is it alright if I can know your size now and what is your expectations. I'm currently on here doing research that way I dont have to be as nervous when the time comes close. Thank you :)

I am just seeing this! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I currently weigh 138 and I am 4'11. My waist is a 29 and my butt is a 39.5 my hips are a 37. I obviously want a smaller waist like a 25 and since I'm short I am still trying to find what proportions would be best for my butt. I posted some wish pics in the next post

Surgery getting closer

Booked my plane ticket last week. I also had my CBC test done a few weeks ago unfortunately my hemoglobin level is low (11.3) I need to raise this ASAP! I've been taking all the vitamins the vitamins the dr recommended hopefully they bring it above 13. Does anyone have any advice for this? I am staying in a hotel with my boyfriend and everyone is saying I should stay in a recovery house but my mind is already made up. As anyone stayed at a hotel? I should be buying all of my supplies by the end of this week! I am excited the nerves haven't hit me yet. My date is May 23rd!! :) I included someone of my wish pics

I m having a bbl with lipo with Duran the same day. Yes I strongly suggest that you stay at a recovery house. For your hemo go to cvs or walmart to get Geritol. It is a high potency B-vitamin and iron liquid supplement. I started taking mine the 23rd of this month as well.
March 31, 2017
Omg thanks! That's cool, I'll see you there! And I'll be buying the geritol, do you take it along with the iron pills?
March 31, 2017
You are welcome. Yes I stopped taking the pills since geritol contains 18 mg per tablespoon and that's 100 % of the daily value needed for iron. Yes I'll see you May 23rd , less than 2 months left, nervous but excited at the same time :-)
March 31, 2017
It was at 12.2 when I got my test result back in December. Going in for my last check up on or right after April 23rd just in case. I also will make sure I eat lots of spinach
April 1, 2017
Just realized you already answered my question lol!! Did u get all your supplies and stuff? Are u also talking to the surgicoordinator Laura for assistance?
April 1, 2017
Hehe no biggie. No, beside the pills that I am taking I haven't purchased any supplies. I will do so very soon, march was such a busy month for me. No, I went through Duran directly, I usually email or call and talk to her assistant Wilkilia if I have any questions or have someone at the Recovery house where I am staying contact them for me if I can't get a hold of them.
April 1, 2017
That's good! I wish I would've been able to contact her directly. I haven't bought any supplies yet either. I'm not sure if you could answer this but when I did my quote I was 127 pounds now I'm like 138, you think that's going to be a problem? The surgicoordinator Laura was telling me that I should stay the same weight or I could be charged extra. My BMI is well under 35. Do you think this matters?
April 1, 2017
You should be fine. Duran charges more if she sees you need lipo in different area ( thigh for example ) when she is marking you but I don't see why she or any doctor would charge by weight. I have plenty of friends who went to her who gained weight by the time they got there and that didn't affect their price.
May 4, 2017
18 more dayyyyyss! Are you ready ? I found out a month or so ago that Duran ( Well Cipla) wouldn't perform any sx if you BMI was over 32-33 so I had to go ( I still am) on a VERY strict diet to lose some lbs. It is slowly going down, so I am hopeful. Paid my recovery house deposit yesterday and purchased my visa so i dont have to wait in line. Buying all of my supplies this saturday, just need to order by butt pillow for the plane ride back home. What have you done so far ?
May 12, 2017
Omg! It's getting closer I'm so excited! Got all my supplies, ordered the Dr. Miami booty buddy pillow hope it's worth it. I'm nervous about my hemo, I checked about 2 weeks ago and it was 11.9, since I've been taking geritol and the mega food blood builder pills along with the regular iron pills, folic acid etc. I've been drinking beet smoothies in the morning. We have one week left, I'm going to pack myself with iron! Lol! All I need to do now is get some pain killer meds and a few things from the drug store for recovery.. but I'm pretty much ready to go!
May 12, 2017
Good, yes keep drinking beet smoothies. My hemo was 12.2 last i check but that late last year. I am still takingmy Geritol, and this week will include beets in my diet as if my life depended on it lol. Got 90 % of the stuff that I need. Are you still staying at a hotel ? I'm sure I will see you next week in the waiting room lol
May 16, 2017
Yes, I want to give you my number. Is there a private message thing here? I am still staying in a hotel, but u never know depending on how I feel afterward there may be a change of plans
May 16, 2017
Sounds good, I can't wait. Yes if you click on my name you are able to send a message. I just sent you my number
May 17, 2017
Another thing, since you are staying at a hotel, are you getting a nurse as well ? Who is going to give you the heparin shot everyday ? It just crossed my mind. Hope you have a nurse girly. Heparin shot is the one you get to prevent blood clot after sx
May 19, 2017
Hi girls! Sorry to ask, but how much does cost you the Lipo and bbl? I'm planning to go, but I have no idea how much can be...
May 19, 2017
Don't apologize :-) hey!! Lipo and bbl with Duran I was quoted 4100 but there are many other costs associated with surgery for post op and pre op care, total I'm spending about $7000
May 19, 2017
Thank you for answering! I'm Dominican, but I live in USA, I'm going to RD May 31, I don't have nothing in. I have two appointments to evaluation, with Lluveres and Mora, I would like to have my surgery in July if everything is good, I saw the work of Lluveres on imstagram, but I can't find recents reviews. Any help is really appreciated ☺️
May 19, 2017
Sounds good! Yes. Are those doctors at cipla? This is my first time getting surgery next week, so I did a whole bunch of research alone which sucks lol. But anyway when I go next week, I'll def update with all the details, if you have anymore questions just let me know.
