If you could do it again, would you go back to the same PS? I am wanting to do my fat transfer to the breast and butt with him.

Yes indeed. Dr Urzola is very proficient at fat transfer. I was told by many that the fat would disappear but it hasn't. I love that he is not only a very skilled doctor but his compassion and dedication to his patients is beyond measure. I'll also send you an email. He did fat transfer to my butt as well.

You look fantastic! And more so coz you haven't had any fat loss in your breasts.
What method did the doctor use for the lipo? Was it through vaser? From what I know, for fat transfer procedures, the fat needs to be removed by GENTLE liposuction (not sure if this is possible through vaser, since vaser melts the fat before it is removed), the fat is then processed carefully and using the PRP method the processed fat is transferred to the desired areas (butt, breasts, etc) through several micro injections.
What was the exact procedure your doctor used for the fat transfer to your breasts?
Also, did you need to use a device like brava for few weeks before the fat transfer? Apparently, women with dense breast tissue have a very high chance of subsequent fat loss in the breast region and need to use brava or some such device for a few weeks which expands the dense tissue, skin etc so that most of the transferred fat cells survive.

Hi Twisha, I sent you some videos. I did not use a brava. I also had decent breast tissue, I was a B cup. I'm not sure how well the results will be with little breast tissue, I would recommend doing a consult.

Hi, I think you are very smart by doing your research and taking your time to make the right decision. I agree that the natural look is better. It's been 6 months for me and I haven't had any fat loss. My breast look much better now than they did with implants. There are a few other women that I know who have had excellent results with him as well. It was for sure worth the trip from SC to Costa Rica. Not only bc my results are lasting but because Dr Urzola is just an amazing, compassionate Doctor.

Price

I've had a few inquiries about the price I paid. I think that I should note that my price did not include PRP blood work, garments, massages, medicine etc. The price I paid was only for my procedure from the doctor.

You are posting on my review so I think it's only fair that I respond. This experience is unfortunate but I can only speak to my experience as I normally don't write reviews concerning others because I am not privy to the entire situation. My experience was stellar and I feel badly for anyone who did not receive that outstanding care that I did. Once again, I will only speak to my experience and I was told well in advance that if my surgery went over that I would have to pay an additional cost. This surgery in the states would be at least $15k (I have consulted with other doctors) so I also didn't mind paying extra for any meds that I received, after all I didn't expect my medicine to be free.
I will not speak to the medical information that you put because 1. I am not a doctor and 2. this is these ladies' story not mine. But I will say that I also had leakage coming out. It happened when I stood up and is normal and the nurse at Chetica also put maxi pads on my areas.
I think saying that you "hate this doctor" is somewhat intense especially as you say "I don't even know him." But we are all different and I respect your opinion and review.
Best of luck to you.

I am so sorry! I tried to delete my comments and couldn't. I contacted realself and asked them to delete my comments. They did respond but said they could not delete them.
You are absolutely right, I had no business writing about someone who isn't my doctor and you have my deepest apologies. I am sorry I could not fix it!
