$5,050
Getting a mommy make over and bbl. I stated out wanting the bbl, but after reading reviews here on real self, I found out multiple procedures can be preformed, so I was on board. I've reached out to a plastic surgeon in the United States who I was initially interested in because I did not want to travel out the country, but he didn't advice doing everything at once. This is when I behave my extensive research on ps in the Dominican Republic and the results were amazing. I've flip flopped a few times regarding my choice for a plastic surgeon, but I finally picked Dr. Mejia

Before pics
These are my before pics, but my first review has a lot more pictures and details during my journey to the flat side. I created another review because I wanted to do one for dr. Mejia so his upcoming patients can see his work. I couldn't change the name from the doctor I originally thought about going to in DR to doctor mejia.

He is the best doctor ever!!

You should do well, he should be able to get your whole stomach,and sides.

Yeah, I think the right surgeon could get it done with just lipo, someone else might want to sale a tummy tuck as well to you.did you decide who yet it's a hard decision?
August 1, 2016
I leave for DR in two days and dr. Mejia is my choice. I thought about going to dr. Mcadoo in Miami, and when I emailed his office my consultation pics for lipo and bbl they gave me a quote for lipo to abdomen. I started seeing the reviews and results of girls on real self going to Dominican Republic and I fell in love. I've sent my consultation pics to a few doctors in DR and they all suggested a tummy tuck vs lipo to abdomen. I've also noticed that if you have a big stomach like mine and only get lipo, you will be left with sagging skin. I do not want loose skin plus I have a c section scar, so the scar from the tummy tuck won't be a big deal for me. I am going to follow the recommendations of Doctor mejia when I see him face to face

I think a tummy tuck would give me better results plus the muscles are tightened in your stomach as well

I wish you good luck and speedy recovery!! Please make sure to update with pics, and your overall experience please. I'm super scared, but still gonna do it

I have a more detailed review also so you can see that one as well but I will make sure to post tons of after pics

Thank you so much. These reviews might seem silly, but it motivates me to go for it. Especially when everyone around you is against it.

I think it's because some people are talkers and not doers and we are actually fulling what we what to do. It's a great feeling but people will be negative because they are not brave enough to fix their insecurities. I'm sure this will give me even more confidence

Grateful
I leave for Dominican Republic in five more days which seems so surreal because I found this website "real self" while researching cosmetic procedures, and I got more than I bargained for. I am so greatful to have this platform to document my journey to the flat side. I created my profile last year December 2015 and less than a year later I will be having a mommy make over plus bbl. I feel this forum is God sent. It allows you to connect with others just like you. I am thankful I get to see other patients of my surgeon, and I must say, I am pleased with the results and my decision to choose dr mejia.

You must be excited! I'm sure everything will go well, can't wait to see your updates! :)

You won't have any regrets, I don't. The lipo foam will be your best friend after surgery....it's still mine.
July 30, 2016
hi, what is lipo foam? Is that to help support your back? because I am 9 days post opp and my back is what hurts the most.
July 31, 2016
It's cushion you add between your faja and t-shirt. It makes your back more comfortable when laying down if you had lipo done.
July 31, 2016
I can't wait to see your results I am scheduled with dr. Mejia in December
August 1, 2016
I plan on posting lists of pics and videos for the upcoming patients don't worry lol
Thanks for starting a review, please keep us posted. Â I hope you add your before pics soon!
