I love this website I've been slick stock in it for about a year now but I never had any interest or anybody that touched me however I came up on a testimony of Dr Medina and it was just something in my spirit she's the one for me it was late at night and like I said I've been contemplating having this surgery for over 15 years came close to having it twice but made of the sacrifices instead now my kids are grown its just me and I deserve it haven't had a serious relationship and over what five years now had a full hysterectomy at the tender age of 32 so I've tried just about everything now I have arthritis so bad where this midsection is really putting a strain on me so this is my journey to be coming 1 of Medina dolls

Got a call from my doctor's office today letting me know my lab results my cholesterol is still high 235 but that's okay better than what it was at one point they were saying I was borderline diabetic the devil is a lie!! I'm good on that test, they check the functioning of my kidneys hello they're stable...hallelujah!! I'm so grateful nothing will get in the way of me having my tummy tuck... I've had two opportunities to have a tummy tuck and made other choices so this time it's for me and I'm going to get it done so excited and can't wait to become a Medina doll #DoingSomething4Me

I do not smoke. But I have recently had a bbl done. I am now going to do a tummy tuck with lipo. They do send u some instructions of do' s and dont's. I believe they want u to stop smoking 2 months before surgery...good luck on ur journey!!

I was a smoker and my PS advised I needed to quit a min of 1 month before Sx... And that my blood tests before would show if I quit! I wasn't allowed to use the patch or any nicotine replacement therapy, but I could use hypnosis, acupuncture, cold turkey, laser (which is one way I quit a year ago) or fake electronic cigarettes. I went down to 1 or 2 cigarettes a day when I got my call one month before but was only able to completely quit about 9 days before. I was an "over a pack a day" smoker for 30 years.
Dr told me that I would have more complications with healing if I didn't quit... And because I was having a BR and TT I risked my nipples not healing at all and turning black... Hence the reason he told me he wouldn't do my surgery if I continued to smoke.
I wish I could've quit sooner but it was a real struggle for me... Its my crutch!
I had a difficult time after surgery with coughing up phlegm .... I seemed to have quite a bit right after & for days after. It was extremely tough to get it out and hard on the tummy and boobs to cough! That was one of the hardest things the 1st week of recovery.
I'm 1 month post op and am helping amazing, so the nurses tell me... No issues or complications with my wound healing. I must admit, I've sure had cravings and stuck a drag from my friend one day... Glad to say, it tasted like s**t :)
Good luck with quiting! And wishing you the best with your surgery!

Please stop at least 3months before.If not you will heal properly.I didn't listen I quit 4days before my surgery.That wasn't a good experience I had my surgey in March and QUIT SMOKING since that day.I'm too sexy to be killing myself.

I haven't smoked in years but the stress of my medical problems started my craving. I vape without nicotine. It helps alot. They can make me all kinds of flavors even a tobacco without nicotine. Quit now the healthier your body is for the surgery the better your recovery and less chance for blood clots.
