Cute shape in clothes though

Dr. Medina did a nice Lipo job, gave a cute shape. She did not warn about loose skin possibility on my back from aggressive Lipo (which I now have)

Hi
You mentioned Dr Medina’s gives you a nice curvy bbl shape.
I’m actually thinking of having her do my Bbl, but I’m concerned about the recovery house.

Choose the recovery house very carefully. An actual nurse being there would be best. Someone that can monitor for infection, abnormal pain or discharge.

i have never come across this doctor, really looking for a female to do bbl and breast fat transfer - she seems to have done a nice job

Several doctor's prices in Florida are almost the same as in the Dominican republic (now). I advise find a doctor there.

WARNING

If you are going to use Dr.Medina be sure to discuss this with her BEFORE surgery because she did not mention these important things to me AT ALL !!!
(My surgery time was moved up from 1130 am to 630 am, while I was in the hospital. Doc rushed me into surgery to fill a time slot with almost know discussion .)
1. Show her a pic of the shape butt you want....heart, bubble, hippy. She never asked me details or explained her surgery plan. I wanted heart but have a bubble.
2. Have her SHOW you everywhere she will Lipo and transfer fat or cut. This could have saved me from the unrequested tummy-tuck.
3. Make sure you take someone with you to surgery, even if you have to pay a local. Some hospital staff was very rude and unprofessional, while I was drugged and weak.
4. Make sure you ask a lot of questions about post-surgery care. I had told her my sister keloids, but she did not pre-treat or post-treat for scar management
5. Learn and then discuss everything you can about post surgery infection signs, symptoms, treatment Dr. Medina should have ran a test for infection because of my severe pain in one area. She only gave Lyrica?! I HAD BAD POTENTIALLY CRITICAL INFECTION from that incision that required several lots of treatment.
Dr.. Medina was responsive to any text message/DM. BUT, as a doctor she should have been proactive to prevent the problems escalating.
