WORTH IT$4,750
I'm planning to have a tummy tuck and liposuction with Dra. Almonte on Sept 15, 2014. The price she gave me was $4750 including 10 days at a recovery home or $4000 without. I'm awaiting confirmation of my date before I send the required $350 deposit. I'm traveling with my cousin who is getting her work done with Dr. Luis Lima on the same day. We're excited!!!!!!! Lets see!!....We are thinking about staying at a recovery home the first 4 days, then getting a hotel and hiring a nurse the remaining days...What do you guys think?...Im open to all POSITIVE feedback...The problem is we can't find a mobile nurse..any suggestions??

I think it's great you are going with a buddy to do this surgery.  Is there a reason you don't want to stay at the recovery house for the entire time?

We initially wanted to recover in a more secluded environment with a peronal nurse to have a more one on one feel but we've now decided to stay at a recovery house the entire time...real recovery amonia

I suggest staying at the recovery house the whole time... You get to met others and discuss some of the things you all may be going through! Also they have all the care you need. You still can go out & do things if you are well enough

Hi Eeyah...Yes, we decided to stay at real recovery house the whole time! Where did you stay??. How high does my hemo have to be?..It's at a 12.9 now!..I'm still taking my folic acid and iron religiously lol

Just keep taking that and you will be fine... The week before you can double on your iron & folic.... The higher the hemo the better you won't be anemic after... It needs to be 13 or above to do your back... 12 and above to do anything else

I'm scheduling Almonte for December. I received a $5200 quote for lipo and tummy tuck with 10 days at RH. Maybe I'm bigger than you, so mines is more expensive? I'm 5'4 200lbs, with most of my weight in my stomach. Would you mind sharing your height/weight so I can possibly ask for another quote?

I think she quotes due to body proportion but Im not sure. Im 5'3, 185

Are you getting back lipo bec that can be why as well my quote was 5150 but I couldn't get the back lipo due to my hemo being low

Hi Eeyah, yes my quote includes back lipo. I better be able to get it, thats my second worse area beside my stomach. Did she take anything off the price since you couldnt have it done?

Yes she returned money for the back lipo. I didn't have to ask almonte automatically did it. Just make sure your taking your vitamins and iron, because if hemo is not high enough they will not do it. It's good thing because they are putting your health before the money

Quick Update!

BodybyAlmonte_14
My cuz decided to switch to Baez!!..No more Lima for her...We will be in DR Sept 13th -27th. I wanted to add a bbl, but I've had silicone butt injections before. Baez, Lima, and Yily all told me no BBl. ALmonte wants to see my butt. She told me if it's soft, (which it is lol) that she can do the bbl. I'm still deciding...Also, we have chosen Real Recovery Amonia for our recovery house...

Before Pic

I wanted to go ahead and upload a before pic after battling back and forth with myself!...FYI: I have one baby who is 14months old. I had a c-section. I've had laser lipo before with Dr. Wyndell Bouttee in Snellville, GA and I will tell you it was a waste of money. I think it was just her tho. I've also had a breast reduction in 2010 and a series of silicone butt injections from 06-2012...just a quick overview!!

I am supposed to consult with her in a few weeks. I found her prices to be unbelievably low @ 2000 for bbl but think her prices are a la carte? Whats wrong with her? One thing is I don't see any reviews on rs for her with pics????

Exactly! I never see any pics and the prices great. That leads me to believe her work is not the best. Everyone is looking for low prices for the beast work and if that was the case their would be hella reviews

Hi. Can the silicone be removed? Did she inject it for you? So you were pleased with her breast reduction, why didn't you like her?
