Consultation review - they ultimately decided that my skin was “too saggy” and I needed to lose weight

Worst Consult Experience Ever - Good Luck, Dolls

I never actually got a surgery with him.
Experience with him and his staff:
The entire experience with trying to book with Hector in Colombia has been an absolute nightmare. I reached out to them the beginning of February. I even reached out to them in Spanish in hopes of getting booked for April (in time for a new birthday body)
as that is when he was accepting surgeries. I provided all of my information, my pictures, medical history, I even told them my recent labs, ekg and X-ray looked good (Hgb 14.5, cleared by my provider in the states, etc.) and the staff were terrible about getting back to me. Even so, I was adamant that he would be my surgeon because he had decent reviews here and his insta is amazing. After about a month - yes, an entire month of back and forth sending more pictures - they ultimately decided that my skin was “too saggy” and I needed to lose weight - 4kg to be exact.
To me this was absolutely mind blowing - I am 5’3” and was barely able to get to BMI of 24 - which is borderline skinny. Mind you, I have gained weight specifically for this reason, and my normal weight is about 115lbs give or take.
I even got an online consult with Dr. Calvin Jung - yeah, Dr. Jung Money himself - who told me I had to gain five more pounds because I didn’t have enough fat on my body to produce a big enough butt/sculpt shape change, that he would have to pull some fat from my arms and inner thighs in order to have acceptable results.
Dr. Hector told me I had saggy skin (which is total BS, as I have never had kids and have elastic skin- and ultimately said he couldn’t accept me)
This after waiting an entire month, constantly asking them if I could get a surgery date, because I was planning on being in South America anyway.
Naturally, I was a bit taken aback by his response in saying I have saggy skin and asking me to lose 4kg.
I weighed myself, just to see where I was at- oh lo and behold…. 4kg less. By chance. So I send him new pictures of my at my new weight.
I get a response saying he needs new pictures - AGAIN.
At this point - I’m livid, and exhausted from having anticipated surgery, taking iron pills every day, getting my hemoglobin up, doing everything to get prepared - only to be given the run around I’m getting surgery.
On top of that - there were these instagram dolls that were following me, knowing I was anticipating surgery with hector - and they even somehow got dates before me!!
This was my last straw…
If this is what it is like to try to get a surgery date - I cannot even imagine what trouble anyone would have to endure to be seen by him, let alone what his bedside manner or follow up consults would be. Beyond disappointed. Just for reference?! Here is my “non-elastic/saggy” tummy.

She's an eminence.
You can see MANY videos on youtube in her channel. She's very informative.
