Husband Perspective, Tummy Tuck, BBL, Lipo 360
WORTH IT
Good afternoon. I'm writing this as the husband of the patient, and I want to keep it simple and honest so the next person can walk in educated and know what to expect.
We came from Florida and did as much research as we possibly could to pick the best surgeon for my wife. We chose Dr. Almanzar based on his experience and reputation and we spoke with several local reps here to feel fully confident before committing. My advice to anyone reading this: do your own homework the same way. Don't rely on one source. Ask questions until you feel sure.
When we arrived, my wife went through extensive pre-op testing to confirm she was 100% ready. This part matters if anything had come back out of tolerance, they would have postponed the surgery rather than risk it. That told me a lot about how seriously they take patient safety. We did the evaluation the day before, where Dr. Gustavo walked us through the entire procedure. He was knowledgeable, thorough, and calm exactly what you want going into something like this.
Here's the day-of timeline so you can plan for it: we arrived at 6 AM, they took her back at 8 AM, and she returned to the room at 4 PM. Keep in mind that window includes prep time and about an hour of post-op monitoring afterward to make sure she was stable before returning to the room. So don't panic at the length it's not all operating time. And be patient during the surgery itself: you won't get much information while it's happening. That was the most nerve-wracking part for me, but everything turned out fine. Just know that going in so the silence doesn't rattle you.
Dr. Gustavo checked on my wife 24 hours after the surgery. Throughout that first day we had constant care, with periodic checks from the nurses. They offered me coffee and provided breakfast, lunch, and dinner. One thing to expect: the food is gluten-free, hospital-grade meals catered specifically for patients in recovery so set your expectations accordingly.
The work itself was very clean — the stitching was professional and smooth, and the results look very promising so far. Be patient the first few days; you will be swollen and bruised, because your body just went through a major surgery. That's normal, so don't be alarmed.
And the single most important thing I can tell you: do your massages. The body retains a lot of water after a procedure like this, and the massages are what drain that fluid. Do the full 30–35 sessions, every one of them. It's worth it, and it's how you make sure your money is well spent. If you skip them, your body will hold onto that water and it can genuinely hinder your results. It's amazing how the body takes shape as the days go on, and how much of that comes down to staying on top of the massages.
inally, I want to give my sincere thanks to Dr. Almanzar, Dr. Gustavo, and the entire team. From start to finish, they took care of my wife with real professionalism and compassion, and they put my mind at ease during what is honestly a stressful experience for a spouse. I also have to compliment the facility itself, Nudah is a beautiful, clean, and well-run place, and it shows in every detail of the care we received. We came a long way for this, and we're grateful we chose them.
Bottom line: come prepared, be patient, trust the process, and do the aftercare. We're happy with where my wife is in her recovery, and we'd recommend Dr. Almanzar and the Nudah team without hesitation.
