Almost 1 Month!
Hello Dolls,
It has been a while but I have been crazy busy. I am healing nicely. I am still swollen but I can tell I like my results so far.
Now since I left DR I have not heard from Medina. Thank God nothing has gone wrong. I am very disappointed with the follow up care. The surgery is important but taking care and showing that you give a [RS bleep] after is equally important. Anyway I am done with that.
I didn't get a BBL but my butt looks bigger and more sculpted. Anyway I attached pictures. I will keep you dolls posted.
Love ya and stay blessed!!!

Back home!!!!
So I am back home and back to work. I am very stiff still and my lower back is killing me. It is bearable during the day but at night OMFG!!!!! It feels like I got hit by a tractor trailer. I bought a heat wrap and that helps a little bit but still uncomfortable.
My last few days in DR were uneventful. I spend my days laying or sitting down with an occasional walk. Annie the masseuse came to my hotel everyday to do my massage. Love her, although I wanted to kill her when she was massaging me.
I saw the Dra. once before leaving. I probably would have seen her more if I stayed longer.
My husband now helps me with massages until I find someone in my area. I started showering as soon as I arrived home on Monday. It felt so good... water on my skin.
The swelling as gone down considerably. Tonight I 'll take pics. I am still in my stage 1 because my stage 2 is a death trap and was leaving dents and bruises on my body. I will try to fit into it this weekend now that my swelling has gone down. My husband hates that thing...
My incisions sites are healing very nicely. I will start my scar treatment regiment as soon as tomorrow for some of them are healed at the surface already. I bought Scar Away.
I am still not ready to give my thumbs up or down.... A couple more weeks....
Later dolls! Stay blessed! :-)

Uncomfortable but doable
Hello dolls,
It has been a couple days since my surgery, and I have to say the pain is real and I am uncomfortable but not as bad as expected.
I left the clinic the day after surgery. I went back to the condo. It was cool and my friend is making sure I take my medecine. She is like a [RS bleep]...lol
Anyway sleeping has been a little uncomfortable but I have plenty of pillows to keep me semi comfortable.
Going to the bathroom was trial and error I wet my faja a couple times. But I got it down now I have my own technique. Squat facing the toilet works best for me.
I did a #2 today for the first time after surgery. I had to take 2 stool softener pills.
Now let's talk about the massages, Annie is my masseuse. She is a sweetheart. She doesn't speak much english but we get along just fine. I know she is doing her job but it hurts like hell. She told me tomorrow she will remove one of my stitches to drain the fluid. Looking forward to that...not!
I have a lot of swelling but I can tell Medina did a good job. She told me she took out 9 liters of fat. That's a lot. I can see my shape is better for sure even with the swelling. I got my last oxygen therapy today, I don't know if it really helps but I am hoping.
Ok dolls that's it for today. Here are some pics (still very very swollen). Will take some when I am getting my massage tomorrow.

Wilfredo garcia no 5 arroyo hondo., Santo Domingo, Distrito Nacional
Dra. Medina is real nice and sweet prior to surgery and while you are in DR. Once you leave DR it is a different story. I have not heard from her once since I have been home. Her staff members are ok. Her assistant could be more proactive in her customer service. I am pleased with my results and thank God everyday that I didn't experience any complications so far. I hope it stays that way. If I had to do it again I would have stayed in a RH and stayed in DR longer. I was there for 7 days only because I had lipo no BBL or tummy tuck.
