WORTH IT$9,850
Over the years, I slowly witnessed my body taking on a shape I could no longer bear. My body seemed to develop a mind of its own, as it decided to trade in my once fairly proportioned shape for a more "squarish" and flatter effect in the back, and an abdominal curve along the belly. Once I decided to commit to the fat transfer/BBL, I soon discovered I was lost in how to choose the best Dr, which butt shape I wanted and even which country to have the procedure done in!! So, for obvious reasons, I began doing my homework and discovered Dr. Constantino Mendieta in Miami , who literally wrote the book on Gluteal Sculpting ("The Art of Gluteal Sculpting"). I've since then have had Dr Mendieta perform my surgery (4/2016) and I am absolutely AMAZED at the results!! Honestly, my results are even better than I had expected and I could not be happier....nor feel sexier! ;) I will forever thank you Dr Mendieta.

I too am ready to have my procedure done and considering Dr Mendieta.. Can you post pics to show his work?

Hey, that's great! I'm hoping to get mine done soon with Dr. Mendieta as well. When are you thinking of having yours?
June 17, 2016
Hi... I was thinking about this summer but not sure I will have the time being I have to travel for this. I would to do it between July and September but if not, I'm hoping for before the years ends. I had an appointment in mech bit cancelled, I was too nervous after reading all the information they provided at that time. So I'm just trying to get my mind wrapped around it, as I've been wanting this for about 7-8 years now. I think this year I'm finally ready and hoping to get it done. When are you planning on having yours done no do you have to travel, if so, where are you planning to stay?

Hiya! I feel the same too! Took forever to get my head around just doing it! And to be honest I'm taking it one step at a time. I'm looking at end of August. I have to fly in for this as well. Will probably stay 2 weeks in Miami. I'm thinking of staying at extended stay apartments not too far from the hospital (5 min drive). They come with a kitchen Etc so I thought that may be more convenient and there is also a discount on them if you say you're a patient of Mendieta. Keep me posted ;)

Hi.. Yep. Same here taking it one step at a time. Just trying to get comfortable with the idea. I know I definitely want to do it, just need to get my mind right. I will stay in Miami for two weeks, as well. Not sure if I will stay at a Hotel with hired caretaker/nurse or Recovery house, as I may have to do this alone due to time frame, been checking out a few recovery houses. Not decided on any as yet. Do you have someone to traveling with you, to take care of you etc? Have you consider a recovery house?

Hey, I will have a family member coming out with me for sure :). I haven't really looked into accommodation as much as I should but definitely thinking about the extended stay rooms cause of kitchen option. It would be great if we went around the same time! The more the merrier for support :).
June 21, 2016
Hi!.. Oh, that's great.. Family supports is always best. I may spend the first couple days with a nurse. I'll have to locate one before making my appointment again. I like end of August, I'm thinking that's best for me as well... It would definitely be great if we went around the same time. I didn't quite check into accommodations either but I was looking for something a bit more comfortable than Extended Stay, will for sure need a kitchen. I guess I should start looking into it a bit more. Have you gotten all your supplies? I haven't bought anything as yet. Also, are you traveling from far? Talk soon.
June 21, 2016
Hey! I booked August 24th :). I haven't bought supplies yet either! Need to get on top of that :). The hotel I was looking at is called the mutiny hotel but haven't decided yet. Let me know where you're checking out. You could also private message me :)

That's such great news. I too am planning to go to Dr. Mendieta. Definitely looking forward to your pics!

I'm contemplating going to Dr. Mendieta as well, but the price tag is holding me back. I was told $10300. How did you get your price at $9850? Was there a discount going on when you booked? Can't wait to see your pics!
June 15, 2016
Yes, there was a special promotion going on at the time I scheduled (February/March). I too, contemplated Dr Mendieta because, yes, there are surgeons out there who charge less. However, I finally realized (thank God) these 2 things: #1 "this this is MY BODY! " I've spent well over $9850 to drive a sexy car, and #2 I wouldn't go to the KIA dealership expecting to drive off in a new Porsche" . Dr Mendieta is THE authority on BBL's and creating a NATURAL looking curve and that was very important to me. I, personally couldn't bring myself to risk being unhappy with my end result, just to save some money. I wish you the best and hope you are happy with your end result. :)

Thank you so much!! How was the pain afterwards and the healing period..any words of wisdom :) .
June 17, 2016
For me, I find it difficult trying to describe the pain. I would say, it's more of a constant, dull, gnawing pain. I think the worst "pain" was not being able to sit/sleep on my butt/backside for such a long time. Also, as I'm healing, the itching is unbearable at times. Areas where lipo'd, are ultra sensitive, so you really cannot scratch how you need to scratch. Words of wisdom: - do exactly as your doing, research, ask questions and consult with your Dr on all your questions/concerns. A good surgical staff, such as I had, will be more than happy to make sure you know what to expect , so you can be well prepared. Wish you the best !
