I wanted to begin logging my journey with Dr. Duran for my fellow bbl lovers. I'm a relatively proportionate 5'10" 165lb, size 8, thick legged, small bummed diva wannabe hoping for the fashion model curves of Draya Michele.

I researched several of the popular options: Wilberto Cortes, Jimmerson, Perry, Hughes, Schulmann, etc.. but these male doctors didn't sculpt the super femme curves of my dreams. I found that Dr. Yily and Dr. Duran had the most appealing portfolios although i will honestly say I had severe reservations about international surgery.

I'm definitely a researcher and I had to find alternative to the aforementioned boys club but it was worth it! I was deciding between the two sculptors at Santa Domingo's premier doll factory CIPLA. After sifting through TONS of images and buried posts I realized it came down to one thing.. Dra Duran had not a single review under 3 stars here. Her patients all mentioned her aftercare and bedside manner was impeccable.. So I guess the decision was made.

Today I sent Dra Duran an email, added her Facebook and Instagram and plan on following up with a polite phone call today if I still haven't heard back - just so they know I'm as serious as a heart attack. Let's do this. I heard persistence is key so, I'm going for the gold

Yay! Giddy up! Today I received my quote from Dra Duran's office! I'm forwarding my deposit tomorrow and getting this surgery scheduled.
In the email the nurse mentions that they would like to check hemoglobin levels a month out and to use iron with vitamin c to boost my blood for surgery/recovery.
I'm currently taking Megafood's Blood Builder (Non GMO, Vegan, No animal testing brand of vitamins!) http://www.amazon.com/Megafood-Blood-Builder-90-Tabs/dp/B000F4ZRCC

Scheduling my prelim blood tests for next week!

Supplement therapies before and after BBL

Just a word of note here, this is my regimine - it may not work for you. I happen to take a pretty heavy vitamin supplement routine daily. This includes Black seed oil (gluthathione), MSM, Biotin, Women's Multivitamin, Holy Basil Force, Zyflamend (awesome anti-inflammatory), Fish Oil complex, Blood Builder, a triple probiotic, Oxy-Elite (when working out) and milk thistle (to clean the liver which apparently is very important before surgery!!). I used this resource (as well as a chat with my Dr.) in consideration of my supplemental routine prior to surgery anf found for the most part, I was spot on!

After surgery I plan on adding:
Serrapeptase: http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-1115-serrapeptase.aspx?activeIngredientId=1115&activeIngredientName=serrapeptase

Bromelain: http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-895-BROMELAIN.aspx?activeIngredientId=895&activeIngredientName=BROMELAIN

and of course topical Arnica Montana and homeopathic ingestable Arnica (30x) as well.

Hi I enjoy reading your post. I havent seen anyone provide information about any test that they do prior to surgery. Do they provide pre op testing in the cost or do you have to get it done before you fly to the DR? What is required ?

Your primary care physician can help you get your blood tests run. You can also search your area for a "Minute Clinic". You want to make sure your hemoglobin levels are on par and if they're not, you can start using supplements to get you where you need to be as long as you have at least a month to get there. The surgeon typically includes this blood work in their fee and they will give you another test right before prep. I think many people get their work done in their hometowns so they don't waste time and money finding out they're not in proper "shape" to get their elective surgery. Hope that helps, hon and thank you :D
