I've lost 110 lbs over a few years of making better choices in what I eat and "occasionally" working out. My body has not bounced back so I've been contemplating surgery for years. Planning on heading to the DR but still haven't chosen a doctor yet. Emailed a few doctors yesterday still waiting for a response.

Congratulations on losing the weight, that is a huge accomplishment! What is motivating you to go the DR for surgery?

Mainly the price. I've been looking on this site for a while and now I'm beginning to research doctors. I will be paying out of pocket and would like to get the most I safely can for my money.

Congratulations on your weigh loss progress. Now it´s time to make a gift to your body. Everything you want (Abdomen, thigh and arms) can't be all made in a single procedure. Contact your PS and the priority of the areas you want to modify, together will take the best decision; but not all at once.

I was wondering how long should I expect to be away from home if I'm heading to the DR for a mommy makeover?

I'm having surgery in Miami and was told to stay for a minimum of 5 -7 days. They have a recovery house but I will probably stay at a hotel. Good luck on your journey!

I've requested a few consults from the top docs in the Dominican Republic. I'm not sure if I should go with implants or just a lift for the breasts. After breastfeeding 3 children they are almost lack volume. And after seeing these naked pictures of me are lopsided too. I want to be comfortable after the surgery so I guess I'm weighing my options for now.

There a girl i follow who did her surgery with jose a leon and he did an amazing job on her. Also please look into your doctor make sure he or she doesn't do too much surgeries in a day because your life matters. A LOT of girls who go to the top doctor get infection and etc. So read the good but also read the bad There was a recent girl who died in d.r. recently but look up the doctor i told you

Thanks, I definitely read the bad. I've heard back from Robles, Medina & Baez. Robles recommended not doing too many surgeries at one time. It was suggested that I work on my upper than 6 months from now do the lower.

Yes , Dra Medina said the same!! But we are doing my mid section first!
