Duran update

$5,300
Today I talked to Duran's assistant today. She said just give them a call and they will locate the email than Duran will go over it and give you a quote today or whenever you call. The assistant explained Duran doesn't have the time to go through emails so she prefers women to send email than call and then she will provide the quote. Good luck ladies!!!

Having a very goood result of sx and bash the doctor for the thing that has never happpened is inappropriate,especially removing pics and state "Not worth it" will make others think that result of the sx was bad. It s not fair.
I agree Girlygirl! It's not fair because her results were Phenom!! I wish she had at least left the pics up for ppl to judge for themselves..Muah xoxo
Mamacita I m totally agree! RealSelf should change their policies and not let to remove the posted pictures. and sorry,Emerville Mom but it's lame to promote the doctor you have never had SX with.
I did not promote I said I wish I would of went to her because I had the chance to visit her, If you followed my journey I talked about going and visiting a few doctors when I came to DR. And I offered her info to people who asked. Read the thread and don't assume.
I've Read your entire blog EmervilleMom, I was happy for you after your first in person consultation with dr yilli , I was praying for you to get great results and speedy healing. So I pretty aware of your journey. About promotion: read for yourself , here is what you wrote on sep 13 " If your interested in switching Dr to someone more professional who actually performs the surgeries Duran's assistant said they a have a few openings " Isn't it a promotion ? How can you know dr Duran is more professional? How can you know that she is operation herself if you never were her patient?
The point was dr.yily didn't preform her surgery and during she was assaulted. @girlygily no one is lying to u
Excuse me? Did you get sx with dra yolly yourself? I dont get the point of you beying so negative about her. Hereeveryone shares PERSONAL excpieriense, not your feelings or someone elses talk. I dont care who performed sx,all i care is the future readers would not be able to judge the situation by themselves due no pics avallability .
Remeber you felt secure and happy to have sx with dr yilly, same as you feelling now about dr duran. I feel unfair for the future readers who wont be able of judge for themself due no pics available. Happy healing,jm out of this blog.
Girlygirl Duran does not perform the full surgeries either one her post op dolls confirmed it on the video they made! So the ladies can switch dr's if they like but they will be switching to a different Intern.. I pray all goes well for everyone no matter what dr they choose! No weapon formed against us shall prosper! Muah xoxo
AMEN sista mamacita!
Emerville I pray you find it in your heart to continue to help Dr's Yily's new patients have some type of hope! I can't believe that all this has made you up and run away! One thing I know for the ones who saw your results like myself has been nothing but kind and encouraging. I want you to know that no matter what comes MY way I will not leave my new dolls to be hanging. I know EVERYONE REALIZE THAT WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR SOCIAL MEDIA ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE TO COME YOUR WAY!! It will be up to you how to handle it.. Going to Duran changes nothing she has helpers too..From seeing your pics I think your results was WORTH IT..Good Luck to you and happy healing!! Muah xoxo
How is getting assaulted worth it?
Ladies I go on Friday please keep me in your prayers as I become a Yily doll.....I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. I have become very close with a few ladies here who have been my encouragement in the low times. I love this forum of sisterhood as it brings all from all walks of life around the world as we try to do something for ourselves. My prayer is that no matter who anyone uses that it be who you have researched and took it to God. No matter how good of a doctor you have or don't have God is the one who sees you through. Ladies lots of love as we move to our new beginnings....
Muah xoxo!!! I'll toast to that..
Hey Everyone, There has been a lot of catty stuff on this forum and I ready to go back to my normal sane life without dealing with craziness. I do appreciate all the prayers and support from the women who have been encouraging. It seems like everyone has an answer of what they would of done or are in disbelief of the events that occurred during my journey. All I want to say is Good Luck!! And no I will not give positive feedback to Dra. Yili because she did not perform my surgery. REALLY It is Fair when I gave Yili one star because she did not perform surgery I'm not sure why some can't understand these words but oh well. Unfortunately ladies I cant tell you the name of the person who performed my surgery because his name was not given to me. He did do a great job but he was not supposed to touch me because I did not consent for him to perform my surgery I consented DRA YILI DE LOS SANTOS ROSARIO to perform my surgery. To all newbies these are the name of a few profiles of ladies who admitted that YILI did not perform all parts of their surgeries: Superbooty310 SeriouslyFab46 SolidGold So again I am another person stating the facts. And you have the choice to believe or not to believe and again Good Luck!!! It seems like some women posting on my page have mental issues and need to be checked and given their prescription. I can't believe these women want to engage in violence that tells me a lot about these individuals. I only fear GOD and sorry I don't fear itches I am just allergic to them. Sorry for the language and lastly GOOD LUCK ladies!!!
Good look to them
They don't know what they would've did in that situation.. Who wants to go to jail out there?! But I hope u in the other women link up and do what's right n get y'all money back.

edit update

I read what two women posted on my page. I had a typo Before they perform surgery they strap your hands to the operating table preventing you from moving your hands.

Smh it's so annoying when post op dolls delete their accounts & run away because 1 or 2 ppl write something negative or disagree with something you post. IGNORE IT ! Why ruin it for the rest who have been nothing but supportive. Whether you know it or not your review has been helpful to some dolls who are going to Yily or trying to make the decision to choose Yily. I wish you a safe & happy recovery xoxo
I agree
Hunny you and your husband did the rite thing. I dont know anybody with sense going to a 3rd world country like they a thug on the US streets. If your husband was there when it happened thats one story. But as a TRUE GROWN WOMAN IN LIFE YOU HAVE TO TAKE SOME L's. You live and you learn!!! The Dumb husband would be the one behind bars in DR. Foolish pride always come before a fall. Yall didnt have nothing to prove. Its your word against theres and thats what it would boil down to. Thanks for telling your story GOD BLESS. For the foolish comments on what yall man would have done!!! Bye... sense over nonsense anyday

I know you are posting to inform. There will always be those who have other ways of thinking, and that is their thing. Regardless your shared experience has been helpful, and for that I am not only saying it but giving you a THANK YOU for what you have done. I know this is a very personal experience and you did not have to share. Best wishes on future recovery.
I think you look lovely, and I think you are a smart lady who writes well and has a level head on her shoulders. I am always a little scared for girls who go out of the country because a lot of stateside docs will not help you if you get work done outside the states. Thank you for your honesty, and bless you.
Hola chica, Your boobs look great!! I hope after all the BS you like your results, at least to make this endeavor somewhat worth it...I hope for the sake of other girls thinking of Yily you wont delete your account. Yes ppl will make of it what they want, but at least the info is there...Who can't hear shall feel right?.... Anywho, whatever you decide, thx for sharing and I wish you a speedy recovery and happiness with your results... Take care Tropic

My account will be deleted soon and this is why

MizBeautiful1 1 day ago I don't get it if the guy slapped u y ddnt u get his name and report him and y ddnt ur husband step to him I'm not sayn it ddnt hppn I respect wut u went thru n I'm srry for it really I am but I jz cnt believe it. My response: Okay Thanks for your question. But when u are in surgery you they strap your hands to the table so you can move your hands. They covered my face with the blanket afterwards. And I screamed I cant breath and someone pull the blanket below my nose. I did report the incident but I don't up have the time to update everything. I have been trying to helpful to ladies on this site by posted so early. My husband was not there in surgery because no one can be in the room. ( surgery 4 .5 hours). We handled this situation and I thank you for our concern. I am happy for you that you are able to make decisions on what you want to believe and good for you. Everyone here is able to believe or not believe and just like you I read reviews that I did not believe and after going through with surgery the reviews I didn't want to believe were not lies. But you know what I really thought I was being helpful but I guess my experience is throwing around drama and I don't like it . I will delete my account Monday and everyone can figure stuff on there own. Good luck ladies and I wish the best for everyone. Then I read a post below her's from MSGD528 1 day ago @mizbeautiful1 I'm with u. I know had it been my guy cipla would have been coming down. I go the 20th and I will be advising everyone beforehand I'm not the slapping one that's crazy..... I hope my answer was efficient and I really wish the best for everyone. I am an adult and I think I handled everything in the correct manner. Just think if I took some people advise my husband and I would be both in a overseas Jail not know what the outcome would be. We reported this incident to the officials and now they are doing their job. One thing is Yily did not have a translator when she seen me the following day and when Samira came I explained to her the incident and Samira and she said what she said. I have only tried to be truthful here because like everyone here I like to read reviews on places I want to visit before I actually visit so I can make an informed decision. So I was here to share my experience so people can follow their gut feelings and people can know what I experienced. Now I figure I will delete my account because I am not here to argue with reviewers. My account will be deleted Monday night and again I wish everyone the best and good luck with future surgeries.

Belive it ! Run from her ...run fast..Warning
You were unable to breath due to the epidural that relaxes your lungs along with other organs. Epidural is not for everyone! I had the same symptoms during my bladder surgery in the USA.
An epidural is what we have when in labor to ease the pain. That's crazy that this is how they do surgery in the first place. You should be under anesthesia but that's how it is when u go out of the country for cheap surgery. Good luck u made it out alive with no infections. Hopefully u go to a board certified plastic surgeon in America next time u have surgery.
Stfu!!!
I concur.... STFU!!!!! Kmonroe8812
When I had breast re-construction surgery after a double mastectomy, cancer, my hands were not tied down before I was fully out due to anesthesia. This was at a highly rated US hospital, and during just this surgery I had another scary thing. I was paralyzed before sedation rather than the other way around. Just a few seconds of terror. The other operations, no problem.
"Medical Tourism", strange term, is a valid and great way to get procedures done that are out of reach due to ridiculous prices here in the states. This is just my opinion. A friend told me people go to South Africa to get dental work done. Private pay to the dentist, and tickets and lodging, together less expensive than extensive state-side dental work. Just one example.
I believe everything she wrote!!!
