How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Heading to DR feb 1st for TT and BA with Dr....
Heading to DR feb 1st for TT and BA with Dr. Redondo in puerto plata.
I have always been a thin girl ( im currently 5'8 129 lbs) but over the years and two big babies via c section later and just plain aging..my belly has lost its elasticity, giving a wrinkly appearance in my mid section.
I have always been healthy weight, active and worked out lifting for over 18 years. I am not fanatical about it but enjoy the routine and core/ muscle benefits.
Ive tried a few non invasive methods to "tighten" my ab skin ( thermage and coolsculpting) but neither provided me with great results. It was at this point 3 months ago i decided to investigate surgical options which really was the only option left to permanently and satisfactorily get rid of my wrinkly belly.
I didnt really want people to know i was doing this..i guess im not entirely sure why other then most of my family and friends think im "in great shape and thin" so i why mess w that? Im doing this for ME.
I decided to look outside the country to find a reputable board certified doc to perform my surgery so i could travel vacation and voila come back fixed up :). I looked many places..cuba, mexico, and settled on DR. After researching and reviewing docs i went with Dr. Luis Redondo. He has been wonderful to communicate with and answered all my questions. Since i am travelling solo i opted to stay 17 days at the recovery house there. Dr Redondo had his assistant Yamilka contact me directly to arrange details of my stay. She will be picking me up at the airport taking me to all my appts preparing my meals and staying with me for my aftercare surgery. I will have my in person consult jan 30 and 31st w Dr. Redondo and then surgery Feb 1st. Still not sure what kind of tt i will have..mini, modified or full..and will need to assess breast implant sizing. Im a 34A now so want just a little bit more for some oomph :) im think between 175 and 250cc which i know is quite small..but i feel that would best suit my frame and lifestyle..will see what doc thinks and will let y'all know what i decide! Getting anxious but excited as the surgery is coming up fast. Ive modified my diet a bit ( i already eat pretty clean) to include kefir probiotics and 1200 mg vit c daily. I am going to start my arnica 200c tabs few days before and both arnica and bromelein after to see if that helps recovery. Thanks to all of you who posted details of your journey. I have gained much insight as to what to expect and feel confident Ill get through this with great results as many of you can atest to. Will update once i have more to report.
