I've been wanting to do surgery for a very long time! I am now 24 years old and I am ready more than every. I have finally found the perfect doctor for my procedures, not to mention i have two friends who have already gone to Dra Yily and done an amazing job on their body!

I am a little scared because i have no Idea on how much things can someone really buy and get to be prepared but I know that with the help of most of the forums here and reviews I have pretty much made a long list of everything to get!!
I emailed Dra Yily on Tuesday May 7th and she emailed me back today Thursday May 9th 2013 !! She emailed me the estimate for my procedures everything i will need to do before getting the surgery done and most of what i will need after the surgery, all her information to make the payments which she stated she needs to receive $500US with minimum being $200 of a deposit to confirm and reserve the operating date. I will not be confirming anything because I will wait for when i go to my country next week May 16th to go for a in person consultation and discuss certain things she mention in my email of doing which I'm not interested in doing. I am basically going with the flow which is why i'm a little scared, I am going to Santiago which is where my family lives, during my stay in my family house I will go visit Dra. Yily and consult with her in person although we spoken through emails. After I consult with her in person i will scheduling our date for the surgery which can be the next day right after i speak with her. This is a little more nerve recking because It will happen one day to the next!
My mother isn't very approved with all of this she told me I already look great and doesn't think i need anything of what I will get done! But this is what i want and I'm tired of people for years telling me that i shouldn't do it because i look good already. I don't feel great and thats what i'm aiming for! My mother will be flying out with me and hopefully visiting Dra Yily with me. If not i will be going through with this alone.. which is why I decided to write my experience here hoping that i will get the SUPPORT and STRENGTH i'll need while i go through with this!

I will keep everyone posted on everything!
XO

I am 5'2'' weight 130 pounds
My measurements are Cup 34B , Waist 26 , Hips 39
I am going to do Breast Augmentation/ Implant , Arm Lipo, and BBL ( Butt lift)

She mentioned in my email Fat grafting to Buttock, BBL, Liposuction of Abdomen, armpit, back, flanks, waist , breast augmentation with implants.
I don't think i need liposuction of Abdomen or waist if she needs fat to grafting my buttock i think I would do back and flank and from my arms but as i mentioned earlier she added things to do that i didn't mention or want. What do you guys thinking ? I posted so pictures of myself and this is literally right now that i took the pics.

Hello, I know you don't want to hear this right now but you really do look great just as you are! At 24, you have the biggest weapon any woman can have at her disposal - youth. The risks associated with these procedures are worth it when you are in your late 30s or 40s, have had kids and generally gravity and pregnancy has taken a toll on your body. At your age, these procedures are unnecessary and fraught with risks. I am 35 years old and have one child (age 8 yrs). I was moderately overweight and had a very obvious muffin top tummy. So I went in for a lipo (abdomen, flanks and back). It's been a year since the op, and although the fat is gone, the results are not worth the money and pain. The skin and tissues underneath where lipo is done, continue to hurt for 6-8 weeks after the op. I didn't feel like exercising for the longest time because of the discomfort and pain and in hindsight, if I had just exercised for the months that I had to be idle, i probably would have achieved the same results. Also the incision marks don't go away easily and sometimes there is rippling on the skin like i have on my tummy. The surface is uneven and has little bulges and dents which haven't gone even after one year. I also still have the hard scar tissue which i can feel when i touch my tummy (although it has softened over the months). I am so unhappy with the results that I am considering a tummy tuck as nothing can be done to smoothen out the bumps and dents. I cry when i look at my pre lipo tummy pics.. atleast they were smooth and even. Also fat transfer is vastly overrated. The docs who recommend it are just thinking about making money.My doc was kind enough to tell me that the success rate is abysimal for fat graft and 50 to 60% of the fat doesn't stay in the place it was grafted 1 year after the op. It is such a sheer waste of money and the pain one has to endure is so unnecessary. There is also the risk of calcification or fat necrosis, wherein the fat cells harden and get infected or die. Such complications need repeat surgery. I had gone into the op hating my body and wanting to make it perfect. One year later, I still hate my body and realize that it was much more beautiful before I went under the knife. So I would really really request you to please re-consider your decision. These procedures are good in middle age, after having had children and when the body is kind of damaged anyway. To mess with a body that is already young and beautiful to begin with is totally unnecessary and kind of tragic because it just shows how much of an effect the airbrushed mainstream media has on us.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion about their bodies, there's nothing wrong with being perfect, if the lady want to enhance something to look better that's great. Everyone has something that's not perfect about them. i can see why she needs a breast job and some lipo.Age has nothing to do gravity,etc. I know girls 19 ,over 200 pounds and saggy. It's about how you take care of yourself. I'm 38 and my body look better then a lot of girls younger then me and i still turn heads!

Thank you ladies for your comments and opinion! I am now 27 years old , I have waited and researched for years on doctors and safest procedures! ... I am now going to a different doctor, Dr. Molina, in my country to get my boobs done, lip in arms and waist. Over the years I have gained some weight now being at 152. I do have a nice body and shape even after the gain however it still can use a little fixing. Especially my boobs, with all the weight gain and lost through my years they are saggy with stretch marks. I will be going in for surgery on Nov 11th ! Keep me in your prayers please!

Hi. I think currensydiva is absolutely right. If I were you, I wouldn't even have breast implants because from the pictures I see you have some breasts. Wait until you have children and then you will see how your breasts will be as well as your body. You are from Latin America, right? Well, your body is shaped according to your race and I do not think you can do much to change it. It is not worth the money and pain, possible complications etc. Listen to the person that did it and is not happy. Do not be affected by women on this site who do it at a very young age and are obsessed with big boods. I had a nice pair of breasts before my children and after breastfeeding them I ended up with nothing, so I wanted to have back what I had before. I went with silicone over the muscle 175cc, I am very happy with them, never regretted the size and wished I had gone bigger. If you do the breast implants at least go with overs, I mean over the muscle. You have enough tissue for that and the recovery is much faster. I had no pain after a very short time and feel nothing of those things that other women describe, mainly because of my overs. I had no tissue to start with and my doctor would not do it under the muscle. There might be more complications with unders, read about it. Good luck.

I am now 27 Years Old, and have finally set my surgical procedures WITH DR. JULIO MOLINA

Hello Everyone,

Its about 3 years since my first and last post , but here is an update on what has occurred for the last years and what I'm doing now!
As you all know I been interested in doing surgical procedures for over 3years now. I have jumped from doctor to doctor, literally with 4-5 doctors which I have considered, consulted and got quotes from. I have finally found the perfect doctor for ME! I will be going in for surgery this month on Nov 11th for Tear Drop Breast Implant, Lipo in arms and Waist, and a minor BBL to only give me shape not to make bigger (still considering this). I am super excited, I will also be going with a good friend of mine who will be doing procedures as well, so this makes everything less nervous. We are going to Dr. Julio Molina Suarez located in Santo Domingo , he is Board Certified in the Dominican Society for Plastic Surgeons. We will be staying at PRINCESS RECOVERY HOUSE, also in Santo Domingo, double room for $75 a night, includes a lot of stuff such as Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, 2 snacks,Wifi , TV, Airport transport as well as transportation to clinic, errands help (extra charge), nurses ect.
I love DR. MOLINA work because he doesn't exaggerate with the body fat transfer, graft and contouring. My desires are to look completely natural, and from the results I have seen he fulfills those needs. Ladies, I know when I last posted here I was going to Dr. Lily, and my body was in better shape. Many of you commented on my nice body and how I shouldn't do anything , wait for kids, wait for 30-40. I understand everything told, but I also understand that my body can be better and working out isn't going to help with the look and shape I want especially with my boobs. Since I have gained and lost weight through out my body my breasts are saggy, and with stretch marks. The gym won't help me get the Full & perky look I want. I am now 27 years old and have gained 20-30 pounds where i am now 153. Even though I have gained weight I still have a nice body and shape ( as most of you commented) but I still feel and want to do minor fixes. Its all about how we feel ladies! I've developed more into my women body now being at 27 so I am actually glad I didn't go ahead at 24yrs old and waited to develop more! I know some of you comment not to great experiences with what you went through but we also have to keep in mind that everybody is different, including the doctor who works on our bodies. I feel confident and secure with who I have chosen, and just because someone is unhappy with what they did to themselves, don't mean it will be the same for me. However, I appreciate every comments because just as the positive ones help I can also learn and know what can go wrong with the advice given from those who had a negative procedure.

Ladies this is it! Everything is all set for NOV 11th , 2015! PRAY FOR ME! XO

UPDATED FROM Mskeyp

22 Days Post Op - surgery by Dr. Julio Molina

User Avatar

Hello dolls! I am sorry I haven't posted anything during my process. My recovery wasn't as good as I thought and expected it would have gone. I am now finally starting to begin to feel great about a week ago. Don't panic or get worried my recovery wasn't well not because of my doctor but because of the type of body and person I am. I have anemia and my body retains a lot of fluids on top of it all 2 days post op. I got my menstrual which caused me more inflammation, swolleness, and fluids. I also got a migraine that Friday, Oct 13th, that lasted me until Tuesday after I went to my first doctors appointment checkup where I was prescribed medications. I had a migraine consistent for 3-4 days straight, stomach pain, nauseousness, vomit, constipation and so much fluids I barely could walk for 10 mins without getting tired. Due to this I couldn't also eat because I would be so nauseous, every time I tried the food would hurt my stomach and at times throw up. I recommend if you are having these symptoms drink a lot fluids such as water , natural juices , green juice ( celery , cucumbers, pineapple and green apple) , also most importantly a protein shake that can replace a meal. I drank "ENSURE" vanilla flavored. This I was able to retain.

Also because my body procedured and retain so much liquids after my 5th day post op on my first day of check up I had to begin my draining and massages.
FYI for those who have to get drained manually it is very painful. He prefers manually because he likes the body to heal naturally, when it's done this way the results are better. I did not get any drainage bag or machine to help me as my doctor doesn't like to use any of those unless you are having a tummy tuck or TT w/ plastic surgery. As for me, I had just lipo and my back kept retaining and building over 250cc of fluids due to this everyday I had to go in for an appointment to get my back drained. As for any liquids in the front they don't drain that, the massages are done to help you pee the front liquids.
My back fluids was done by me sitting (on a wee-wee pad) & reopening my lower back incision which is right between the top of my two butt cheeks. Once they reopen the incision the doctor would push all my fluids with hands. As you feel the fluids come down your back its very painful, it's like a burning sensation rolling down the back. Once it comes out the incision you can feel it instantly because the liquid is very warm/ hot, I mean it is coming out of your body! After almost two weeks of draining me the fluids didn't hurt much.

So everyone, if you are a person like me who has to get drained just know that if your not in your country and you have a flight date to go back home your fluids must be under 100cc to fly back home.

Ok I will be writing more posts on my recovery and for the days I didn't get to post!
