I did some research on those recovery houses, and it wasn't good but good luck, try to get some family member, I was blessed with my mom's friend, which now is my best friend. You have to be with somebody who loves you and care. I wuold love to open a recovery house myself...

HI. THANK YOU FOR THIS REVIEW. I DON'T SEE ANY PICS BUT COULD YOU TELL ME YOUR STAT BEFORE SURGERY? WHAT WAS YOUR SHAPE AND WHAT WERE THE TRANSFORMATION RESULTS? I THINK YOU ARE DEAD ON ABOUT THE REASON FOR REVIEWS ON RS AND HOW USA DOCS ARE JUDGED. THANK YOU FOR THE LINK TO HELP DO RESEARCH. HOPE YOU ARE STILL LOVING YOUR NEW BODY!!

Will not be on RS much

Sorry if it's taking me a while to respond to emails etc. but I'm not on RS much. I will post some final pics in the next few weeks as my body has changed even more since the last pics. It really does take about 4 months to see the "full effect". The Plastic Surgeon who did my legs told me that it will take another 6 months before my skin and muscle are more connected overall. So the transformation continues.

After I post the last set of pics in the next few weeks I'll turn off notification, but I'll leave everything up for a while. Wishing all my RS sisters the best on their transformative journeys!!

Did you ask yily for large volume lipo or did you just tell her I want you to lipo all the fat or ask for full body lipo? I would like to know how to phrase it for her.

Where to look

In NYC you can look up doctors to see if they have had any law suits filed at:

BTW there are LOTS of doctors/doctor's staff posing on RS with fake identities. Do your research. Especially you BBL ladies. BBL seems to be where the money is at and everyone wants a piece of the action.

You look great! There is soooo much helpful information in your posts. I appreciate your honesty and all your experiences. I don't have anything booked yet but I've been talking with Yily's assistant and I'm hoping to get in in the next couple months. I'm really nervous about recovery. I had lipo done about ten years ago and got blood clots in both my lungs as a result. I know at the time it felt like I'd been hit by a truck but as time goes on, you forget about the pain and appreciate the results. I'm excited and scared all in one.

June 22, 2013
That's crazy! Why did that happen to you? Were you active enough after surgery? I'm getting lipo too and you just scared the crap out of me!!!

You should definitely get clearance from your doctor in the U.S. before even attempting surgery again. Did you tell Yily's assistant about this?
Y
June 22, 2013
You'll be fine, don't be scared. Just walk. Walk as much or as little as you can but make sure that you have circulation. I wasn't active enough because my doctor told me to rest and I guess I took that too literally.

June 22, 2013
I am waiting for Yily's assistant to give me a quote first. I will be fine to have surgery again. I had my second big surgery three years ago. I had a tt. I am supposed to take injections for one week post op and of course I always let the doctors know about this. Thank you for your concern

You've had lipo and a tt before so you know how your body reacts. Are you traveling alone or teaming up with someone? Saw your pics. You're starting at a good point to have great results.
Y
June 22, 2013
Thank you! I don't want to tell my family what I'm doing. And I don't have kids or a husband so I will be travelling alone. Once I finalize a sx date I'll post on here and see if I can buddy up with someone. I've never had the drains before and I get so queezy with blood. I'm such a wimp hahah

There's a lot of info on various blogs with nurses and aids that can help you while you're there. I'll be useless to you LOL. I took my Spanish speaking friend who was my anchor through the DR process.

June 22, 2013
hahahah I went to the library to pick up a cd and book to teach me spanish. I will definitely be requesting an aid :)

Thank you. I had lipo on Wed and did the dental work 1 week later. The info for where Dr. Yily Sister works is: Ortodoncista Especialista en Implantogia Oral 809 685 4516 Cell 809 805 0097 They understand English a bit, but I went with a friend who spoke Spanish and she translated everything for me.
