I'm so nervous don't know what to expect nor what will happen. Thinking of getting a bbl, liposuction in full ab, back, flanks. Been wanting to get this surgery for so long, finally have the guts to do it. I have always felt some way about my body, been a athlete all my life, but life took its toll and age. But I'm ready to have that vavoom body

Good luck! I am considering going to Dr. Medina de Garcia within the next couple of months. I live in California so I'm going to have to find someone to come with me! Are you bringing someone with you? You're going to look amazing after! I saw her before and afters and wow, what a transformation. I hope all goes well!

Thank you, yes I love her work. I think my fiance may go, but could consider a buddy. Kinda want him there though he's my rock , I get through anything with him. When are you considering going? I think august for me.

That's so sweet! I want my boyfriend to come with me - but he has work and I know I would have to stay down there for over a week so I don't think he would be able to go with me. But I rather have him than others. Trying to convince a friend to come stay with me might be a little tough, too! I guess I'll figure it out... I know I'll need some company. I'm also considering August or September for mine!

Hey, I'm all for it! We are on the same journey! Lol. As much as I want mine to come, I know it wouldn't be the best move for him to be gone from work that long... But I need someone to be with me!

Not sure yet, and you? I heard good things about different recovery houses, but haven't picked one. Don't really want to have 3 other girls in the room in pain like me lol want a double room.
User Avatar
May 14, 2016
Is it an additional cost? Yeah, me neither! That might add to me being more uncomfortable lol. A double room seems perfect... I didn't get to look into those yet but I rather just share a room with one person. I was reading that a couple of other girls stayed at a recovery room for a couple things and then a hotel for the rest.

The hospital is near the airport right? Well if you're considering buddying up at all, I'm totally down if we could somehow make it work! There's no way I could convince a friend to stay with me! Lol

I believe it is near airport. Yes I think tht would be awesome. At least we wouldn't be alone ya know. I was thinking of staying at hotel also to get some rest. Just didn't know how that would work w with the nurse either.
May 17, 2016
Are you guys set on a date yet for surgery? I am hoping to buddy up with 1 or 2 people when I go there. That will be less scary to have someone there to talk to.

Hello , August 8th I believe for me
May 18, 2016
I'm looking at aug 4 I believe, if I can confirm it tomorrow.
May 16, 2016
I am from California as well and I am planning to go to DR either in July of Aug with Dr, Medina. I will be going alone and I am considering My home RH but needs to confirm my surgery date first. I was thinking of staying at a hotel at first instead of RH but not sure ho to get a private nurse. I heard My home RH is really nice.

What part of California? I reside in the Bay Area. How long are you staying down there? I am thinking of a date somewhere in August. I sort of want to stay at a hotel maybe after a couple of days. I heard its a lot comfier.

I'll have to look that recovery house up
May 16, 2016
I'm from Los Angeles. I am also thinking of staying at a hotel but not sure how to hire a private nurse to stay with me. I am also wondering if I can get transportation service if I will not be staying at the RH. I recently heard of someone getting robbed in front of the RH and someone's money stolen inside the RH. I will be traveling alone so I am a little scared about traveling from the airport with a driver I don't really know.

Wow that's horrible , yea I think a hotel would be so nice, but I heard nurse is bout 50 bucks a day or something like that,
May 17, 2016
that's what I heard too but dont know who to contact for that. The good thing is that you will have your on private nurse. Maybe I will stay at the RH for 3 days then move to a hotel after. Need to check what hotels are close to the doctors office.
May 17, 2016
When is your surgery date? That will be nice to have someone there from CA as well.
