Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Day 23 Post Op:
I am super happy with my results. Everything is healing well. The scabs are falling off, and my incision is basically invisible. Will post a pic of my scar as soon as all the scabs fall off, should be in a couple of days. I am using my KeloCote scar gel, which helps minimize the appearance of the scar. I saw Dr. Robles yesterday, she says everything looks great!! And will see me in January unless I'm worried about something.
I am still drinking 3 Liters of water everyday and am making green juices. I am currently drinking a whole pitcher of juice 3-4 times per week. You dont wanna drink it everyday cuz you'll start losing lots of weight, and you're not supposed to do any type of diet the first 2 months after surgery. I blend a whole pineapple, 1 cucumber with the skin, 1 apple with the skin and 2 celery sticks and add some honey to sweeten it, NO sugar.
Thats all for now!!

Day 17 Post Op:
Just added some pics of my new compression garment. So much more comfortable because it keeps my butt in place and its really tight. Its the Isavella brand, I purchased it before I had surgery.

Day 16 Post Op:
Everything has been going great, swelling has been decreasing but still have some swelling in the lower part of my tummy. The incision and belly button have been healing properly. I have been applying the Mosqueta Rose oil everyday, don't attribute the healing of the incision just to the oil, I always heal really well, everyone is different.
I finally took a bath today, felt AWESOME!!! but left the gauze and tape on the incision so it wouldn't get too wet, then put on the oil and put dry gauze on. Took some pics while I had my garment off, I am loving how everything is looking so far, have no complaints at all.
I am still sleeping on my back but can stay on my side for a while, so it relieves my back a little. As of today I started walking completely straight, feels good, walking like an old lady was killing my lower back.
Dr. Robles told me I could start getting massages on my back and waist as of tomorrow, lets see how that goes. There is a massage therapist that is coming to my house tomorrow, she will do a session of ultrasound, paraffin bath and then lymphatic drainage(manually), it's gonna cost me $20, I think its a good value considering that I can get it done in the comfort of my house. I have another appointment with Dr. Robles on Wednesday, she has been seeing me every 4-5 days.
Well, that's all for now. I posted some new pics!!!!

Not many surgeons invest so much time in caring for their patients. Dr. Robles is definitely the exception. She said to call her cel whenever for whatever, not posible to do with other Drs. So happy, don't regret anything and super happy that I chose Robles.
