Hello Ladies, I just received my confirmation sx...

Tarababy
$4,800
Hello Ladies, I just received my confirmation sx is scheduled for June 9 yay!! I plan on getting a breast reduction/ lift, tummy tuck, and lipo on back. A bbl was included in the price a special the had going on but I do not want one I figure once he get rid of this gut and do some lipo I should be good.
I've been really hesitate about going to another country for this procedure but I really like the thin lines you get with the tt out here and they really give you a good shape and I ain't gonna lie the prices do help. I know some are gonna say don't let the prices persuade you your health should come first and it is that's exactly why one should research their doctor first and I have .Dr Mallol is board certified and I think that he does good work.
My sister is coming with me so I chose not to stay at a recovery house. When calculating the cost difference between procedure and recovery house which was almost 900 and then to add the 55+ a day for her it totaled to 1800 the same price to stay at the Marriot and a few hundred higher than embassy suits. So a hotel it is. It's gonna be both of our first time in another country I don't want her to have to be couped up in a recovery house. Also I plan to arrive 3 days before so that we can do some sight seeing and explore the city before I have to be laid up in a room.
Well that's all I can think of for now I'll post more and pics as the time gets sooner.

My sister and I both are getting the procedure in July. We too have selected Dr. Mallol. We have been debating on a hotel or rh becuz we wanted other sister to come. What hotel did you find?
April 4, 2016
We haven't decided yet but it was between the Marriot, embassy suites. Also we looked at their holiday inn and honestly it looked better than the Marriot. The prices were good too, for the 11 days it totaled to almost 1300 including the taxes.

Hey, have you thought about AIrBnB? Like you, I have family coming out with me, so no RH. I got a two room apartment about 15m from Dr. Mallol's office for $612 total for two weeks. I have a picture of my place on my page and the manager is amazing. Just a thought!

Thanks I'm going to check it out.

since you will be staying at hotel will your sis be taking care of u or does the doctor offer nurse visits to the hotel for an extra fee.... i plan on getting same thing without breast and want to bring family to sight see before also ... cant wait to see ur before n after!
April 4, 2016
Yes she will be there to help, I know you can hire a nurse I've seen some post say they paid a nurse $50 for 8 or 12 hrs I can't really remember. But I'm just gonna wing it with her cuz back in Cali where I'm from they send you home the same day and told me just to have someone there with me for the first 48 hours. Thanks for the support
April 4, 2016
Oh ok... yeah im from Cali also and your right they do send you home same day, which is crazy.. The only thing that I have heard is that the lipo pain is pretty extreme, but I guess if your keeping up on your pain meds it should be fine...Well good luck with all that... safe travels and safe surgery, hope we get to see your results, im sure you will look great... 8-)

So I have three more weeks until I'm Mallolfied!! I'm soooo excited. In the beginning I was starting to have doubts and then all the what ifs started to hit me, but I got over that very quickly once I starting think more of this pouch ( thats what my son calls my stomach cuz he likes to cuddle and thinks he's a Joey and I'm the mama kanagoo) being gone.
My flight and apt is booked ( thanks bey) and I just received my passport a week ago, so things are getting real. I've gotten a few supplies I know I will need over there for sure like pads, compression socks, granny panties, tank tops, maxi dresses , comfortable sandals and my front closure sports bras since I will be having a breast reduction/lift. oh I also have a bunch of creams for tt scar but I think I'm not suppose to start scar treatment until I'm 2 months post op. Other than that I'm packed and patiently waiting.
