My surgery date was scheduled for May 10 2016. At CG Cosmetic in Miami fl. Everything went smoothly . The Dr. Threw my nervousness to the side so i was extra calm when I had got done with pre-op the following day which was may 9 2016. It seems as if everything went so fast. I flew in on the 8th of May and after that, may 9th I was in pre-op. I was NPO starting May 9th at 11p really midnight but I stopped at 11p to be on the safe side. I went in to CG Cosmetic around 9a after I picked my medication up from Walgreens. And ladies if U have insurance you can pick your mess up by using your insurance bcz my friend we came down here together she didnt have insurance and her medication was $110.00! Which was very expensive but that was from Walgreens. When mines was just $20 for all 4 of my medications. Now. The cosmetic center will give you their pharmacy place to go too that they send their patients and they say for all 4 meds the pharmacy charges like $85.00 . But i just wanted to let u know about that. Now my surgery was at 11a and I got called to the back at 11:04a so they were right on scheduled time. They get their patients in and out it seemed to me. I got in back they give u another pregnancy test and then they hook you up to an IV . The anesthesia woman comes in and she talks to you , by the way she was very nice her name was Amy . Then you get called to the back operating room and that's where the magic happens.

I had tummy tuck done with lipo on flanks at CG Cosmetic with Dr. Scott Loessin. I had a great experience from the time I had pre-op talking with doctor until the ending process. Dr.Loessin listened to me and was very knowledgeable. My appt. time was at 11a and I got called back at exactly 11:04a.m. for surgery, So they were def/ly on scheduled time. The facility was very clean and the staff was nice as well. The anesthesiologist by the name of Amy was very calm she def/ly relaxes you and she's super smart and knowledgeable as well . My over all experience on surgery was A+ so far .

I'm feeling actually ok. The pain is bearable and I expected it to be worst but it's not so bad but it is painful. Lol. Out of a 10 I'm a 5/10 right now. The oxycodone is everything! But it makes me so drowsy! What did you get done ? I haven't click your post yet
