Provider Review
Going to Colombia was scary. And they do things differently. My surgery went well and I'm satisfied with the results. I got a BBL. I definitely want my butt to be bigger still, but I feel like that was partially my fault. He asked if I wanted Exaggerated or natural. I said I wanted it big but can it still look natural? No is the answer lol. So it's bigger and rounder and my waist is very small and my hips are a 10/10. The hospital was a 0/10. The nurse missed my vein like 4 times. Popped it open. I made her call the anesthesiologist in the room. He had to do the other hand cuz my first one was in soooo much pain from her stabbing it so many times. He got it the first try. But now both of my hands are in extreme pain. They said they couldn't even keep my belongings safe while I was in surgery. Wtf kind of s**t is that? I cried so much that the nurse (different from the first one) who was going to be in the room for my surgery said she'd keep my phone in her pocket. Cool. Thanks. A couple of things I didn't like were the contact with the doctor. I didn't even meet him until I was in the hospital with an IV in. Also, he was like an hour late. My surgery was supposed to be at like 7 am and he didn't even walk by the room I was in (which was a closet at best) until 8 am. We only got to talk for like 5 mins. I was in Colombia for 2 days and he never saw me. Then I was off to surgery. They rubbed me with that orange liquid in a freezing cold room. Sat me down on a table with like 100 little blue towels covering it (instead of just one large sanitary sheet of some sort??). Then the anesthesiologist came in and I was out like a light. They did an epidural so I woke up during the surgery, but I was too out of it to really even know what is going on. When Surgery was all done they carded me into another room, with what looked like a patient who also just got out of surgery. This was not the room that I was going to be sleeping in. There was nothing in it except for me and the other patient. It was so cold I was shivering uncontrollably. Thankfully they stuck this big tube underneath my blanket that projected heat and it kept me warm for a few minutes until they ripped away from me and gave it to the other patient for the rest of my time in that room. Then I went to my room for the night. I had to sleep in my belongings under my blanket so nobody would steal them. Hi State and Paola's recovery house and my stay there was very nice. All the nurses were very nice and took very good care of me and even the housekeeper helped out tremendously. Her name is Margarita and she was fabulous along with the rest of my nurses. There was one thing that I didn't appreciate. There were six rooms in the House and only two rooms were taken (me in one room and two girls who came together in another). The room that I paid for was shared and it had two beds in it and there was another patient coming in they told me they were gonna stick her in my room. I understand that I paid for a shared room and it would be acceptable if all of the other rooms except for one weren't empty. It just seemed rude to stick her in my room when they had four other open rooms. I would've happily shared my room if there was No space. It's inconvenient when the nurse had to come in in the middle of the night and give one of you meds and wake the other one up. Or when one of you presses your call button in the middle of the night it always makes the other one up. Or when one of you has to use the bathroom and it bothers the other one. It would've been totally fine if all the other rooms were taken. I tried to explain that to them and they said other patients were coming. I said OK. But 10 days later when I left all the rooms were still not taken so they didn't even have to put her in my room. But other than that the nurses were excellent, the food was decent, and the house was very clean. The nurse who came to the house every day to give us our massages was also excellent. Her name is kissy and she was great. Get as many massages as you can while you're down in Columbia because they are much more expensive when you get back to the states. Also, another bit of advice, don't buy your second stage Faja from Dr. plazas. You don't get a choice on what it looks like and you're supposed to wear it for 3 to 6 months afterwards and they're more expensive. The one they gave me was $60 and it zips in the back. How are you supposed to do that by yourself for 3 to 6 months? And if you're not alone it's a hassle to your significant other. I'm almost to the end of my three months and my boyfriend is so ready to stop zipping me up in this faja. It also isn't long enough for me, he digs into my shoulders so I can't wear the sleeves at all. I think I got my other faja from a place called contour fajas. It was only $40 and I got to pick my style. It's zips in the front and it's got straps for the summertime and shorts. I would buy at least two or three second stage Fajas in different styles. You have to wear them every day 24 seven they get dirty you're going to want to change it. You want to softer want to sleep in in the harder one to wear during the day. If they offer a seamless option anywhere get that one. Those big seems around here butt a if they offer a seamless option anywhere get that one. Those big seams around your butt aren't the greatest.
