WORTH IT
Thorough is an understatement when talking about Dr. Garcia. He is patient, informative, and extremely professional. His staff is amazing. He made me feel very comfortable and was extremely honest about my results. He did not push procedures that were unnecessary. I'm excited and looking forward to Dr. Garcia performing procedure.

Finally...

Almost39
I chose Dr. Careaga after a second consult and seeing previous patients results on this website. So far I am happy with the results. My only regret is that I should have had my first massage with my body contour, they take their time and remove excess liquid and spend more than 60 minutes manipulating the skin with heat and manual therapy. My first day after surgery was a blur. I spent most of the day in bed for three days. My first massage was done the day after my surgery. I'm still experiencing a burning sensation from liquid pooling in my lower abdomen which the doctor has remove some. I wish I would have had a therapist remove most of the fluid before my incision closed. I am very excited about my results even though I have excess fluid I can see that the doctor has done an amazing job. To anybody who is thinking about having Lipo, your aftercare is very important. If you're going to use an ab board get the foam also so that the board doesn't rub up against you already tender parts. I will post pictures later.

Who did you go to for body contour? Is it in Miami as well?

Sorry, I don't really understand your question. When you say body contour, do you mean surgeon or massage therapist? If you want to know who my surgeon was it's Dr. Careaga. My massage therapist is Laura from Dr. Careaga's office. I developed a seroma, and found that it was best getting my therapy from the therapist in the doctors office. Also, she uses ultrasound to reduce swelling with a combination of lymphatic massage, and she isn't afraid to get down and dirty.
