Long time over due...my mommy makeover (TT, Lipo, breastlift & BBL)
WORTH IT$7,100
I'm here in Bogotá Colombia laying in my bed at the recovery house, trying to keep my blood pressure under control (thinking about the pain I will be in is making it high). I'm 37 yrs old with 3 children (girls 19, 13 & a son 10). I have been wanting to do this since I gave birth to my son 10 yrs ago after having my tubes tied. I've gained weight, lost weight and gained it back again. Then I was told I needed to lose 15-20 before my surgery so that is what I did. Once my BMI was under 34 I was ready to set a date. So Tomorrow is the big day. As you can see I have been a member on here for 7 yrs and have researched so many doctors. I finally found him, Dr Rafael Gomez. A good friend actually referred me to him, so I started researching on here. Then I followed him on Facebook, and instagram. His before and after pics look great. Lily the surgery coordinator is a heaven sent. She has made this whole process go so smoothly. Always responds quickly to my questions and very helpful. She has helped me get here and I am grateful for her. I had my in person consultation yesterday with Dr Gomez, he made me feel at ease, soft spoken and answered all my questions. And there is actually another Gomez doll here recovering and she looks amazing. The nurses are so sweet and attentive with her and me as well, even though I haven't had my surgery yet. So not sure when I will be able to take after pics but hopefully I should within a week. As of now here are my before pics.

I had to go back under anesthesia 3 times total. First time on he 8th when I of my mommy make over, 2nd was 4 days after that to graph skin to my nipple because it wasn’t getting blood circulation and it was dying, and the 3rd time was because me incisions under my breast and on my stomach were opening up and they needed to be closed. I ended up having o sty in Colombia for a whole month so they they could monitor me and make sure I was healing properly. I’m home now and trying to do everything I was told. It’s kind of hard though to take it easy since I am the homemaker. But here are a few pics of my breast and stomach

How do you feel about whole procedure? Are you healing now?
Picture for sure making it look like you had some rough procedure . Thank you for sharing your whole experience made me rethinking going there.

I'm feeling better now. And honestly what I've gone through I feel was no fault of the doctor. I stay longer than planned because he wanted to do what he could to try and fix my nipple. He did two skin graphs to my nipple. Prior to surgery I used to smoke, I quit about 3-4 week before and I was overweight. I think those to things might have had something to do with what happened with me. Everyone's experience is different, just please make sure you are completely healthy before surgery.

Yes, smoking shrinks your blood vessels & when you add that to losing blood vessels with skin removal it can cause necrosis... have you looked into getting 3D nipple tattoo?

Yes I actually have been looking into getting the 3D nipple tattoo. But I was thinking about getting the CV flap nipple reconstruction surgery first.

Hi after all this would you recomend him or stay away?

January 21, 2021
I'm going back to him in April so I still recommend him. I had complications but he has done everything to fix them.

Did you have to pay for the revision? How about expenses related to prolonged stay?? You are very kind. Looks like malpractice!

April 6, 2021
I won't be paying for the revision just my flight when go back. All the extra expenses were taken care of by them.

I literally cannot believe you would EVER go back to this doctor. This IS 100% a shit doctor

It no one’s fault but the Doctor.

Smoking shrinks your blood vessels, when I went to DR Duran refused to do a girl’s surgery because she use to smoke, even though she stopped 3 weeks prior

I am so interested in this, my body shape is much like yours. Any regrets

April 2, 2021
My only regret is getting my breast done. I do love the shape but I lost a nipple and they feel very small to me now. I'm going to try and get the nipple fixed and I'm thinking of getting implants now too. But over all I love my body. I didn't want to be skinny, I just wanted to get rid of the fat and extra skin hanging on my stomach. And that is what I got. When I go back to get my nipple fixed I'm getting more lipo and bbl so hopefully that will be the last time I have to get anything done. Have pu decided on your doctor? Good luck on your journey.

Did you get a breast lift or a reduction? I’m scheduled for May 23rd... also how was the recovery apartment?
April 2, 2021
How is everything now, how long were you off work? Your breasts were very intense looking. Did they have a hard time healing?

Thanks for sharing!! I was wondering how you looked up the recovery house? I’ve been googling a recovery house in Bogota near the airport that’s where my surgeon is located but I can’t find any recovery house I found like normal apartment the vibe wasn’t it. I am so happy that you are well recovered. You look great!! Thanks again for sharing.
