I am doing pretty good. I am wearing an extra small garment on & off. I got the boy short one & it rides up & cuts in. I still have that little bump in the bottom above phobic bone. I don't know if it will go down or if it's fat. I hope not since I am 129 pounds. Here are some photos. Hugs & well wishes to anyone having surgery.

Swollen

User Avatar

Some people do swell up but I was not that lucky. I felt like a blimp. Most of it was in my lower abdomen area. Swelling can last 3-6 months. I am wearing a stage 2 small garment /faja. Let me tell you I can not get into this alone. Even my BF has a hard time getting me into it. But I do wear lipo foam in the back & front. But after a while I am able to move it to a smaller hook. I was told I can get into an xsmall but I think that's crazy. We shall see.

Thank you for posting these! I think we have a similar shape so this helps a lot. Make sure you're getting enough protein in your diet. It helps with swelling/healing. You look lovely.

A couple other ladies are posting about "unethical" practices Medina is doing. 1 said it was a release of liability and the other wouldn't even post about it but said she met another girl who was really upset. Did anything happen there that you didn't like? Other than the money thing. I agree, I think it may be that
doctors down there see foreigners as money bags but I'm wondering if there's anything that should make me feel unsafe.

the liability thing is paperwork you sign once discharged that you release her of all one doing. One person refused to sign and was told she could not leave. The individual stated that was against the law & she did not sign & was left alone. I don't know who the other person was or if they were there when I was there.
Answer your question. Yes I do believe you are safe. Just the fact that someone always needs something is the issue. Just be aware of that. Don't let them rush you when they mark you. Right down your concerns & stress what you want. I do believe she is a good surgeon and safe. Do every test imaginable here before you go. Bring copies & buy mess here

Scar looks good. Still swelling in my lower ab area. Will contact doc tomorrow to see if it's still swelling which I believe it is or final results ? It better not be final results. My lower abs were flatter than what they are now. Thanks for checking up

Thanks for responding. I'm scheduled with Medina next month I'm so nervous. I'm getting tt, BBl. Since Dr Fisher won't do both together DR here I come. I will keep following and praying for you Doll! I did read it takes awhile for swelling to go down. I'm going to post when I get there cause I need all the prayers I can get. You look Fantastic! I'm Confident in Medina :)

Why do your nipples, one looks round and the other is oval?? Did u notice that?
User Avatar
August 31, 2015
Yes I did notice that. Hopefully they will heal better. But to be honest if it doesn't I really don't care about that. No one will be looking that closely

Thanks for such a detailed review of your experience. Are there any other recovery houses that you heard of that are better. I am preparing to go in November. I want to make sure that I stay in a recovery house that offers healthy food. Also, in regards to travel. How did you manage with your luggage and enduring a 3 hour flight after having a tt? I worry about the pain and lifting the luggage.

Try not bringing as much stuff. A lot if the items they tell you to bring you don't even use. Supposedly the recovery house is better now. I can't thinking of any now. I believe haven is one of them.
