Grammie Makeover 55 Years old. Long Awaited to Make Outside Match Inside - Dominican Republic

I like many, just didn't like the way my clothes fit. Didn't like me at 25 to 30 lbs heavier. Read so many reviews...Lots good. Some scared me [RS bleep] less! ! But I decided the time was now. 55 yo. Gonna do it for me. Of course my husband said "you look fine the way you are". Blah blah blah. I understood his fear of my choice of WHERE I was going. Yes .... DR. It was just the financial choice. So I took my happy butt to DR alone to get er done. Wow...you need to be open minded. Don't think you are gonna walk into a facility like in the states.... You will be unable to go through with it. The pre op equipment was something we used here 30 yrs ago. Yes I can say that as I have been a registered nurse for 25 years. There really was no consultation with Dr. Medina. Not that she wasn't nice, but after the blue pill I only remember her saying my BBL wouldn't be big cuz I didn't have enough fat. I am quite happy cuz I went from flat to just right. The plan was to have the girls lifted also but she said no due to my age. Well retrospect I am glad it turned out that way. The recovery house was nice in a nice bld, in a nice part of town. The only problem was the residents that paid big bucks, for them, didn't want bent over women coming in and out of the bld and elavator. Actually the health dept came twice and put up a sign of no habitation. They had to move the weekend, a few days, after I left. Well I came home with a drain attached to the right side of me. Man was that sore!! I took it out and then had to use medihoney on several areas to get the incision healed up. I was faithful wearing my compression garments until the numbness on my lower back where the catheter went in to take that ugly back and bra fat away. Wow the pain was horrible. I couldn't wear it anymore. The pain has been intense for about 3 weeks now. It is slowly getting better. I do massages at least every 1-2 weeks. Lots of stretching. I didn't get the lymphatic massages. Even though she was able to do them, she suggested cupping. Things are going good. I stay between 145 to 149 lbs. I don't know if my abd is supposed to feel as firm as it does, but better then flab lol. Just a new normal. So that's my 6 month update. Here are some pics. Sorry but last time I had to do one at a time.
