I'm 23 yo and really unhappy and insecure with my body. I am wayyy to young to feel like this. I was never really happy with my breast and after having my beautiful baby girl at 20 my body is completely horrible compared to before. Longing to feel sexy and attractive again. So I've been researching/stalking this website I've learnt a lot from ladies on here so I hope my journey would help someone as well. I am from the Caribbean, I even work in a private hospital that perform the exact same procedures I would like to do but I have no faith in them or doing anything here .Initially I liked Dr Mallol but some of his work concerned me and I believe safety and care is very important . I found Dr Gocio after deep research even checking his International Plastic Surgeon approval. I sent my email in and received a reply about 2 weeks later. He took his time to explain why he choose certain techniques and answered my concerns, all even before any money has been paid. His assistant Karel as well is really helpful and this shows that it's not just about the money. I haven't paid my deposit yet till I have had all my finances and my work situation in order. I'm really excited to be get this process started

Hey hun, I'm having sx with him. Did you book your surgery with Dr. Goico?
October 13, 2016
Hiiii chick no I haven't as yet....Been having some financial hold ups at the moment really hoping for November or December.
October 13, 2016
I feel you, my sx with Dr. Goico is early 2017 so if you go first best of luck!
December 15, 2016
Thank you so much! Same to you and speedy recovery. I haven't been on here like I use to. I am finally gonna book this week. I'm aiming for February or March according to the availability of the RH. Have you decided a date ??
December 16, 2016
Yes my surgery is Feb 24th and I had decided to stay at a hotel but thought it over and I'm staying at a RH. I'm considering Princess recovery home, if you book for that time frame let me know maybe we can get a buddy discount..

Finally booked!
Cher MariettaJanuary 7, 2017
I've finally booked with Dr FG for the 8th of February and I've paid my deposit with Relax Recovery house. Also my mom is going with me for support (she refused to take no for an answer it being a different country and I don't speak english). It feels like I have so much to do in so little time. Everything feels so unreal at the moment idk when it will hit that I'm really doing this. I'm excited and nervous trying to mentally prepare for this. Right now I'm trying to figure out a list of supplies that I'll need post surgery. Oh I finally got courage to post my before pics

Thank you and good luck to you too.....he and his team are really the best so far
January 31, 2017
they are! they answer every one of my thousand questions lol. you're so close!!! I'm bursting from excitement while 4 months away lol
January 31, 2017
Lol they do I've been harassing Karel everyday now. I'm not sure how I feel because I'm not nervous or anything I feel like it hasn't hit me that I'm actually doing it yet lol

good, less time to worry and think of the worst case. i've just been freaking myself out-- watching too many videos/reading too many reviews. I see a lot of cases of people getting burned during lipo (by Cabral) so I asked Goico if it's common and he said he'd never burned anyone! bless. i feel that i made the right decision by going to him. I see some people here complaining that he didn't give them enough of a dramatic look but I think a lot of women just see what they see on IG and don't think about the complications that can arise when you're doing such crazy lipo. we chose the safest choice in DR in my opinion (just based on every review i've read)
January 31, 2017
That's very true I believe it is the safest probably why I'm not nervous or I do have a lot of faith in him. He's not aggressive and he prefers for you to look natural than overdone. It's already risky doing any procedure but having it pushed to extremes is risking it even more
January 31, 2017
seriously... so many women think they can live an unhealthy lifestyle and then go into surgery and come out a completely new person. we shouldn't push our body to these crazy limits cause there's when ppl end up with fat necrosis/burn scars (all these things i've seen from Baez/Yily/cabral/other popular DR doctors
January 31, 2017
Hey what are you having done and what was your quote ?
January 31, 2017
Hi I'm having a breast augmentation with periareolar lift with implants and tummy tuck with minor lipo in the flanks. He quoted me $5355

So it's a few days away. I'm all packed and ready, I'm leaving for DR tomorrow and the nerves are finally setting in. I will update about the recovery home I choose and the pre op appointment on Tuesday. And I'll try my hardest to update yall after sx as soon as I can. I'm not sure 100 percent what to expect with recovery but I'm just taking it a day at a time.
