After 12 years of trying to get my husband's blessing to have a tummy tuck he finally said yes. So now my work begins. I have gotten great reviews for Dr. Yuseff Serulle of BellaForma in Santiago, Dominican Republic. I am of Dominican descent so I speak fluent Spanish and have been to DR many times. My sister in law lives there and has offered to take care of me during my recovery. I have emailed Dr. Serulle and he has been very responsive. Asked for pics which i sent and he then provided his price. I also expressed my concerns about general anesthesia since I've never had it. He stated i would need a tummy tuck some liposcupting and breast augmentation. He also provided me with his cell phone number so I could call him and we had a "telephone consultation". I wrote down all my questions and called him. He was very pleasant, professional and patient. He answered all my questions and more. He said they could perform the procedures under regional anesthesia and iv sedation. I'm still months away and im bogh excited and nervous. If any one has first hand knowledge of this surgeon please let me know. I do have a friend who had her tt done by him and 4 years ago and she looked and continues to look great. Any feedback is appreciated.

Surgery scheduled for July 4. Doctor gave me preoperative instructions. The same as here. No aspirin, eat well, no smoking and said to take iron. He also said to think positively about my upcoming procedures. I love him already.

My fljght has been purchased. I'm so excited and so utterly scared. I've been reading so many stories on this website and I'm astounded by how brave these women are. I at least am Dominican and have family there. Some of you travel alone to an unknown country to have your dreams come true. That's amazing. I wish i could just relax about my decision to do this for myself and imagine my new body.

Hey Melanic95 yes I'm all packed and ready to go. I feel much better because my m decided to go with me. I was going alone however I have family in DR so it wasn't bad but I feel better that she's going. I think I have almost everything I need I have been checking to see what else I'm missing. I spoke to the doctor about the whole faja (garment) and he says I don't have to buy one here the one he gives me will work fine for the whole recovery period. So here's a list of what I got.
-tank tops
-leggings
- wash clothes
-baby wipes
-sports bars
-bio oil for the scars
- stool softener
-pads
-daily vitamins
-rubbing alcohol (dizziness)
-bottle of collagen helps with scar healing. Is there anything else I need? I will be posting some pre op pictures soon not looking forward to that lol
