My visit to the ER

I don't know of any other hospital in the US but in Lincoln Hospital in NY, if you mention you are in pain and had plastic surgery, they will automatically try to reject you and treat you like if you had surgery in Dominican Republic (no offense). I had to lie to them and tell them my doc was on vacation: It's a weekend for God sake. We anyways, I went there because I was vomiting and had these piercing pain in my stomach that wouldn't go away for [RS bleep]. I thought I probably needed pain killers. I was given nausea medication and injected with some type of pain killer. I reached out to my doc to update him on the info and he responded to my text instantly, on a Saturday a weekend. Now isn't Dr. Taranow your dream doctor? Instant service, who can beat that. As it turned out, I'm constipated due to percocet. That is what is giving me the stomach bug. I'm definitely stopping the percs and took a liquid laxative. Hopefully that will make me feel better. Other than that, I'm okay, the swelling continues to go down. No photos on this post because I'm not feeling good but next time. Have a good one dolls and let's continue to work on those sexy bodies. Oh, I almost forgot, I booked my first massage with rejuve face and body for the 30th.

Feeling better

Some swelling is coming down and I'm starting to look better naked. I knew my doc won't put me down. I need to kiss that man. He will definitely do my revision to add more fat in certain areas though. Will start planning for January.

Just feeling optimistic

My emotions have been going up and down since I had the surgery. However is reading this, I want you to know that Dr. Taranow is a awesome doctor. My arms and stomach looks great and I owe it all to him. The attention he provided to me is priceless. I was new to the whole BBL thing and I thought I was going to come out like a Barbie. I have to have an open mind and be realistic. The doctors don't know what they are really working with until they are on that operating table. I know for a fact Dr. Taranow did his best with my BBL and now I just have to give it some time to heal. I'm going to start my massages this Sunday. That will probably help distribute the fact. Going back to my tummy tuck scar, Dr. Taranow really did more than what I paid for. I wish I had a photo of the ugly scar and patches of fat Dr. Preminger left on my tummy and sides. She even left me with the thickess pubic area ever. Dr. Taranow removed more fat from my tummy and gave me my sexy punany back. I will love that man for ever for that. He also did wonders on my arms. I was thinking of getting an arm lift but I did not want the scar so I told him we could do the lipo on arms instead. He said he wasn't going to be aggressive with the arms because he didn't want it to get even looser and he was right.

My ass is on fire right now. Can't wait to see the final results. The booty is the only thing that I cannot see the results right away and I hate that because I am very impatient but everyone is telling me to wait. So what I'm going to do is wait and see the results. I already gave my doc info to my friends so I hope my booty starts looking better.

This doctor is truly amazing. He was very honest with me from the beginning all the way to the end. He revised a tummy tuck that I had done with another doctor who had left me with an uneven scar and a very thick pubic area. Dr. Douglas called me at home to make sure I was ok and sent me messages via text. I recommend him for any procedure.
