Tummy Tuck and Breast Augmentation with Dra. Robles - Dominican Republic, DO

I came across this site in my search for plastic surgeons and have found it to be such a great help! I swore that I would let others follow my journey so that I may help others as well. Just to give a brief background, I'm 24 years old and I have struggled with weight problems since I was in elementary school. Although I was active, I have always been over the recommended weight for my age. By high school I started skipping meals and trying to not eat for weeks. This devastatingly resulted in more weight gain. When I started college I weighed the most I ever had, 230 lbs. Once I was out of my family home and on my own, I had control over my own food and had easy access to a gym. In the last six years food my life I have lost 90 lbs. Although I'm very happy with my progress, Im left with a hideous stomach and breasts two sizes smaller than originally. I finally decided that I need to do this for me and for the husband that I can't even let see me naked! I have scheduled my surgery for march 8 in Dominican republic. I chose Dr. Robles based on the reviews, certifications, and pictures I've seen. I am so excited and nervous. Does anyone have any tips, suggestions for things to bring or any pre surgery advice? Thank you!!

Congrats!! My advice is to read as many reviews as you can and start making your list of things to bring and what not to bring. Also ask other women questions on their page. They respond quicker. I'm still undecided between Robles n Yily both offer really good results. Good luck....,,chow for now

Hi, i just found a great deal on the Vita Medica Vitamins. www.dermastore.com has them for $ 100.00 plus a coupon for $20.00 - promo code:blushlove. It makes them $ 80.00. No tax and free shipping. My PS was charging $ 104. The promo code is only good until 1/31/2013. Please pass this information along to all the women getting surgery soon. Gotta save some money. I'm getting a BA first then going to Dr. Yily for my other body work. Chow for Now!!!!

A little over a month left and I'm still not nervous, only excited. The money and total costs are the only thing stressing me out! I'm trying to be as relaxed as possible, I got my blood work done, I'm eating healthy and taking my vitamins. I plan on recovering like a champ! Does anyone have any money saving advice on this procedure? For example, I've read some reviews where the patient actually bought a hand held massager instead of getting them done by a professional?? Thanks for any advice!

So my blood work came back great(yay) and I'm working so hard to be ready for this surgery! Only 32 days left, I can't believe it!! I have been eating insanely healthy and working out a ton. This has been a lifestyle change for me over the last few years but I'm being extra strict. I eat paleo diet and I've went on the 21 day sugar detox! I have also been good about my vitamins. I'm very much looking forward to finally feel like my hard work was worth it. Laura and the Doctor have continuously been helpful throughout the process as well. I can't wait to meet some of the amazing ladies that seem to be going around the same time.
