Re-made in Colombia ;) October 2013 - Dr Harold Villalobos

I am looking to have Breast lift, Tummy tuck, & fat grafting to the booty. I'm trying to decide between these two doctors. Dr. harold Villalobos has been amazing in answering all my questions & has great results in TT's & BL's, however he is not known for producing big butts. Told me that the maximum he will do is 700 ccs. On the other hand, Dra Agustina Duran is amazing at creating curves, flat tummies & rounded hips with booties. Not a huge fan of her breast lifts. Just my honest opinion. Really stuck between the two. I'm not looking for a HUGE booty but a nice full rounded one. My main concern is getting perky breasts & a flat stomach for now. Both docs quoted me nearly the same for all procedures. Dr. V is in colombia, Dra Duran is in Santo Domingo. Flights more expensive to Colombia. Thinking of doing my breast & tummy first & then going for a round 2 with Dra Duran. Just my thoughts for now. Gonna keep researching & saving.

So i have come to my final decision & decided to go with Dr. Villalobos. Why? Bc I love his breast work & tummies. :) I'm not too worried about getting a big booty as of now bc i need to take care of the front before the behind first! I booked my flight for October 13 & scheduled my surgery for October 16 first thing in the morning. As of now i'm only scheduled for a BL & once i get there & go to my preop appointment we will decide if i can pass for a mini TT. As well as adding some with lipo with BBL. I'm really anxious as i will be traveling alone but i am determined to have this done! If anyone else is going to Colombia around that time, feel free to message me :)

So I'm finally here! Times goes by so fast, I can't believe it. I've been anticipating this day & I'm finally here. My surgery is in only 3 days! So about my trip, it took 3 hours & 20 min to get here from Miami. Flight went well. I have anxiety so I was worried about that. But my pcp prescribed me some good old Xanax & I was good to go. Felt really chill & relaxed during the flight. If you ladies have anxiety or panic attacks,(mines were mild), I highly suggest getting some medications prescribed before flying. Makes a huge difference. Anyways!! Once I landed, i realized my phone wouldn't work... so i wondered how in the world would i get in touch with Alba from the RH?? i have an iphone so i would have to rely solely on wifi. Maybe use a payphone? Well i'll get to that later. So once inside the airport, upon exiting, i just showed my flight ticket, passport, told them I was coming from Miami for "tourism purposes" & "yes I am American but my family is Colombian", (they ask u these questions), & also a Colombian phone number to reach you. Getting through was pretty simple. Inside the airport there's a currency exchange so it's easy to change dollars to pesos. After exchanging, I walked outside the airport & there was Alba holding up a sign with my name. What a HUGE sense of relief !! & it was raining. The poor woman had been waiting for a while bc my flight was late. But she wast worried about that at all. She was glad to see me, gave me a big hug, welcomed me, asked me about me & immediately started telling me all about Cali. I'm Colombian, so I've been to Colombia plenty of times but never to Cali! First time & I already love it. It has that Miami weather minus the humidity so I'm good :) Alba was so nice & super chill, felt like I was talking to my aunt or something lol. She has a son in bogota, a daughter in Florida & family in other parts of the states so she visits the US often, although she doesn't speak much English. But she does have a nurse who speaks it at the house though.

Driving from the airport, which is located north of the city, took about a good 20 min since I arrived around 9:30pm & there wasn't any traffic. The whole ride we talked about our families, Colombia, Cali, & discussed plastic surgery of course!! Feels great to speak so openly to someone since I had barely anyone in my family to support me in my journey. Oh! & btw, Alba is a patient of Dr. Villalobos 3 years ago. She loves him. Although she mentions other docs are great at what they do too. Says the best go-to booty doc is Dr V. So we were talking about recovery & she told me not to freak out the first couple of days bc my body will be super swollen (all part of surgery) & that your body will take better shape as time passed. This is my first cosmetic surgery so I was all ears lol. Even though I have an idea of what to expect.

Once I get to the house, it is beautiful. I expected a smaller house, not as nice, & i was prepared to "rough it" in order to save some cash since I will also be getting my teeth done (more about that later)... So I came prepared with toilet paper, wipes, extra towels etc etc. The house has high ceilings, spacious rooms & is decorated very nicely. There are probably about 8-10 rooms in the house since Alba said there are 8 patients currently. Plus alba & her staff. My room was very nice, has a tv, safe box, armoire, etc. I bumped into one of Villalobos' girls who was having her second round & she looks hot! Instead of fg though she had butt implants bc she had no fat left. She was 5 days out & was walking & everything. Ladies if you are thin & have no fat, this may be an option for you. So we chatted for a bit & then Alba asks if i want to call home. she gave me a phone & said "Use it exactly as if it were a US phone" so I'm like ok, cool. Technology has gotten better here in Colombia bc a few years back it was a serious mission to call the states. & costly. So I call my mom & let her know I'm ok & happy. She was very worried but all is good. I also was given the wifi password & was able to connect my iphone on it & log on social networks etc. Afterwards, Alba asks if I'm hungry, I say yes since I wasn't able to eat prior to my flight & only had a snack early on board. One of the nurses prepared me a light plate of chicken, potatoes & rice with juice. After eating I just chilled for a bit & went to sleep.

Just woke up today & since its a holiday, I'll just see what's up & whats going on, probably do some shopping, maybe party later on since theres a club across the street ahaha no but seriously I do feel like partying while I can lol relieve my pre surgery tension! or maybe I'll just relax here & get to know the girls better. Yea we'll see. Either way I feel great being here & I'm excited to explore, know ppl, & get this surgery over with! Glad to be safe, to be here & thank you for your prayers!! I thank god for watching over me. I prayed to him every night before flying. & he is awesome! I'll post more later, gonna start my day already. Take care dolls! xoxox
