Hello, I'm adding a 2 year update because it's important for you to see it through to make a decision. I am still very happy although after covid and no gym or workout have gained some weight. I am down to 124lbs but tummy hasn't been worked on but I still feel so good. I reached out to the doctor about inner thigh dent (only visible to me) and muscle trauma (hard to stretch left leg) and he didn't reach out. After surgery is finished, they are finished with you. But it was still worth it and I am grateful every day. When my body has been exercised I will post again. It went downhill BC of no exercise, but today I start my journey.
Butt got small
O.k so, it's been 1 year almost. My butt shrank a lot. Now, it's smaller, less round. Mind you, I haven't lifted weights for 2 months due to epidemic.im hoping to grow it in the gym again. My lower belly has more fat but it's still thin.i wish it was washboard flat but hard to maintain. My waist is less defined. If you lose weight, you lose your bbl so please please take care of your diet.

Procedure/doctor:
I did full body liposculpture, ab etching and bbl with Dr. Garcia. I have to say the guy really knows what he's doing. He's detailed, meticulous and takes his time to carve your body. He seems soo careful and listens to your needs. He did an extraordinary job, I love my body, it's exceptional! You will see from my pictures how beautiful he works, my jaw drops when I see myself, my hat goes off to him. He loves his job, this was obvious! I speak Spanish and so I asked him how he became the best, he said, "there are other great doctors. I really take my time". He mentioned (without names) that other doctors finish in 2 hours and when he steps out for a break he sees they are finished (he takes 5-6 hrs) and wonders "what could they have possibly done in 2 hours?". He's honest and really seeks to do a tremendously good job. I keep thanking him! My waist is so beautiful, my ab etching is like no other, wow! My legs are so beautiful, my back was stripped of all the fat. I'm 5'2 and weighed 140lbs. I lost 20 lbs after the surgery. His before and after pictures speak a thousand words! Other doctors don't come close to his affinity at carving bodies. I'm serious, he's wonderful. At the beauty salon, the workers told me that in Colombia everyone wants to do surgery with Dr. Garcia, but his consultation is too expensive for them. He's obviously popular in Colombia. I liked him, he listens and responds to your concerns patiently. Professionalism:1)The only disappointment I have is the level of professionalism at his office. It's not up to par with American standards. Communication is not the best, they don't explain anything. They ask you to wire some money and bring cash for the remaining portion. I was o.k with that. However, they took away my massage on the third day post-op because I was late, knowing I was foreign, I had to exchange money, buy food, I was bleeding, dizzy. After discussing all of the inclusions of the surgery and establishing the contract they should give you all that they promise. They don't even tell you that if you're late, they'll take it away.That's not right! I paid $8000 USD cash, give me my massages!! Also, the girls that work at the doctor's massage place also lack etiquette when resolving issues (point deducted for that too!). Massages are horrendous, painful, you have no idea!2) The girlfriend who happens to manage the office is money hungry! All those small things are stressful and add to the discomfort of the entire ordeal. They had no empathy or professionalism in the small things! Accommodation :I didn't stay in his recovery house because I thought it was too expensive ($1700 USD for 15 days) . Girl I met from USD said the food was o.k but repetitive. Cali's accommodation is a steal. So I stayed 20 minutes away at Hostal Alameda, in Valle del cauca. It was cheap to get to the clinic from here and close (F.Y.I Dr. Garcia's clinic is literally across Parque del perro. If Uber takes you there, it's just 10 steps). Only thing is not all rooms have laundry or air conditioner, so check the details.NURSE:I hired a nurse for 7 days @$40/day. This is so essential and necessary. I'll give you the number to my nurse she was excellent! Lina is her name. She gave me my medicine, helped me shower, came to my appointments. Stayed between 9-5. She is very sweet!Necessities:Office does not tell you of ALLLLL the things you need post-surgery. They only list the 10 diapers, medicine.... ect that is included (you need way more). This is stressful because I was post-surgery and had to worry about drainage pipes, diapers, tape, maxi pads to cover leaking sutures, creams... My nurse helped me a lot, but it's too much to deal with when you are recovering. The office does not communicate in all honesty about anything you will need. You are left alone and abandoned with that stuff. God bless my nurse!Things you can buy from U. S:-2 SHOWER CURTAINS FOR BLOOD Leakage underneath your body on bed. -tape (really hurts skin, so buy best one) for maxi pads that will cover your sutures.-plastic wrap for the leakage in your elbow sutures (this is constant and annoying). -massage cream for massages.-bring stage 1 baby diapers, you run out so fast.-anti-bacterial soapReview:Apart from my complaints of various things, the doctor will do the job strikingly well! He is those people with a passion. He changed my body completely, I can't thank him enough. Thank you so much!
