Dra Robles: Tummy Tuck, Fat Transfer to Buttocks, Lipo Sides - Dominican Republic, DO

I am a 55 year old African American mother of three sons (25, 34, 36). I have been wanting to see my "scrap basket" as my mothered called it- while sitting for a verrrrrrry long time. Any time it came up in conversations over the years every only spoke negatively about. Over the past year I have looked on you tube and other sites but would only talk myself out of it. Underneath that pouch should itch and I started hating the way I looked. Was surfing Internet one night and saw pictures of PS in Mexico and results I felt that I could live with. I found myself on the net like it was a full time second job! Would wake up a little tired but excited. Bottom line I reached Realself and stumbled onto Dra Robles. Made contact with Raquel and was on a plane to DR in less than two months. When I purchase my ticket I got a little antsy but that didn't last long.

Let me tell you, I do not like flying. I usually have to go to my dr to be rx valium. And I am claustrophobic and not known for just traveling alone. I am providing this history so that you can get an idea of how serious I was and I did not just decide to do this on a wimm.

I got leave from work and arrived in DR on 5/13. Driver was waiting for me and probably thought I wasn't on the plane I was one of the last ones to clear customs.

The ladies on #Team Robles on Realself and i'm sure others-are to the point and on the mark about the information they give on here. From not purchasing DR pesos at the first exchange and waiting until you are at the booth next to where u pay your $ 10 entry fee to the great people at Virginia's recovery house.

I am currently at the RH and from the first day I arrived and meet another patient of
Dra Robles with a sweet sincere smile as she described that Dra Robles is "amazing". I later found she was also staying at the same recovery house and seeing her as I walked in was like seeing a friend.

I am 4 days post op. I was not Able to get lipo of the back because my hemoglobin was only 12.1. I was refunded Money back and has to purchase extra iron shots. Went to Dra Robles yesterday and she says everything looks good. During the outing while sitting waiting to be seem I became nauseated and had to make that mad dash to the bathroom. Raquel came immediately to check on me.

My incision across my tummy doesn't really hurt. The lipo on the side is another story. I wanted lipo to flanks and back but I'll b okay. Lipo is no joke!

I will add photos soon and more info.

Hello ladies!
One week post op..yeaaaa! Saw Dra Robles today. She says everything is looking good. I had some soreness from my garment and she said whenever you have something going on to have one of the ladies -in my case- at Recovery House RH) check it. She put some gel in the area and extra gauze. When I got back to the RH and was asked about the visit I was chastised. Very understandable. I was told this in the beginning.

n4c13 & emn I thought I would be the only person here over 50! To my surprise there were a couple of ladies here in the same age range and they looked great!!! So I definitely agree with emn. Don't let age hold you back!

Once they gave me the "little blue pill" I was out! I don't know when they took me or when they brought me back from surgery!
