Hello my RS friends! I am so nervous and excited after I made my deposit and confirmed my surgery date. But let me tell you a little bit about myself.

Since I remember I never have a waist but the good thing was that I was skinny, which made it less visible for the people but I always knew I wanted a hourglass figure. After having my two boys (8 and 3 y/o) and deciding (with my husband) not to have anymore children. I began my search for a good Doctor. One that does a good job at sculpting and does not have any bad practice. Here at RealSelf I could go anywhere I want it and check the reviews, the photos, well you know the drill. I found that Dr. Tania Medina has everything that I want and better yet she and her staff are excellent at customer service.

I will let you know what is happening and of course I will upload photos of before and after, so any person who needs the reviews and the pre-op / post-op photos can easily choose what Doctor should they go to.

Thank you and lets start this journey with me!.
Kisses. Xo

My surgery date in July 8. I first contacted her via email. It takes one day to reply back. Like Hottlanta said you can text her or Loren (her asssistant) on WhatsApp. Do not put your deposit down until you text her, email or talk to her because you want to make sure what she is going to do to you and how much she is going to charge you. You do not want to send a deposit without knowing all the stuff first. ;) Good luck, my love and hope to hear from you soon!!!

Vitamins and things that I have to bring with me or I might need.

Hello my RS Friends. In the picture I am showing you what I started taking before my surgery. I began taking Vitamin D because I thought it was good but when I talked to Dr. Medina she told me to stop taking V-D and she gave me the thumbs up for Vitamin C. By the way, I am going to have Tummy Tuck, Lipo in back, flanks and waist and a Bbl.

Loren sent me a list of the things I need and what I might need. Here is the list.

Things you need:

* Iron, Vitamin C and B
* Pads
* Compression Socks
* Wipes
* Small Towels
* Tooth Paste
* Toothbrush
* Mouthwash (the ones in travel size)
* Flats
* Summer dresses like a maxi
* Cotton
* Laptop, Ipad or Cellphone
* If you have Diabetes please bring your Gluco Test, you might need it while at the recovery house
* Bring pills for constipation, you need it after surgery but you can also buy it in DR.
* Bring all the prescriptions if you suffers from asthma, you might need it while at the recovery house
* Comfortable clothes


Things you might need:

* Cotton T-Shirt to use under the faja
* A package of socks
* Arnica Cream
* Neosporin
* Soap
* Antibacterial Wipes
* Tylenol
* Rosa Mosqueta Oil
* Medical Adhesive Tape
* Gauze
* Latex gloves
* Other things like hair brush, shampoo, conditioner, lotion and deodorant (in travel size)
* Body Lotion

Hope this help you as I will start buying all the things I need and probably some of things I might need. The reason I will not buy everything is because my mother lives in Dominican Republic and I am going to stay with her instead of a recovery house. Finally, my mami is going to take care of me! She could not take care of me while pregnant and after having my two boys.

Why did you choose this surgeon? Do you know anyone personally she works on. I am just curious because you have family there.
User Avatar
June 12, 2015
I do not know any person that she worked on but when I decided to have the surgery in DR I began a search to what Doctor does not have any bad practice and that the clinic does not have a record either. I found Dr. Medina here on RS and all the reviews are high. I search on YouTube to see if I would found something and everything was clean. Then I look at the before and after pictures, follow her on IG and Snapchat. I know girls from Dominican Republic that did their Sx with Dr. Hector Cabral and they look beautiful but I prefer my safety and being alive of course with a nice body!.
June 12, 2015
Yeah your right about living afterwards. Is Dr Robles work at the same clinic?
User Avatar
June 12, 2015
No. Dr. robles works at Cecip Clinic and Dr. Medina at Cecilip Clinic. I know a lot of clinics have almost the same name but you can check on Dr. Robles page here on RS. It has the address.

Pre-Op Body

Hello my RS Friends. Hope you weekend was gorgeous and fun. I think I already told you that I am going to get a Tummy Tuck, Lipo on back, flanks and waist, and a Bbl. Here is my body Pre-op or should I say my after two kiddos body. If you see I am not that big (not even in the butt) but I want a waist so bad.....you have no idea. I love fashion, get dressed and look fabulous. One of the things that I love the most is wearing my tops tuck in but I always end up looking like a square. I want to feel confident while wearing the clothes that I like and the style that I love and that is what I am aim for.

Lol...I wish I looked like that after 2 kids. Why would you need a tummy tuck? Maybe a little lipo and a fat transfer if you want more butt. You're flat already.
User Avatar
June 17, 2015
Hahahaha not that flat! But I still have some saggy skin, especially when I sit or bend down. One of the things I am happy about is that with a tummy tuck all my stretch marks are going to disappear. ;)

I also chose Dr Medina but have not scheduled my sx as of yet. U and I have very similar shape. I have 3 kids and my stomach is pretty flat. However, I still need a TT and I want a BBL. I can't wait to see your results!!

Thank you. I am getting a little bit nervous as the day is getting closer, but I think is because I have never do something like this for myself.

I've also done my research & I'm choosing Dr Medina cause I have yet to find anything negative about her. Her works looks amazing and she's very professional not to mention quick in replying to any questions you may have. It's normal to get nervous but stay positive and trust that she'll give u the results u want. Please keep us posted on your journey and always keep a positive mind :) XOXOXO

September 8, 2015
Why did you get a tummy tuck? Was it something you wanted or she suggested it for you? You looked very flat in your pre op pictures..

I want it a TT because I have a little extra skin especially, when I bend and I hate it! . I want it all flat stomach.
