BBL TT Lipo Scheduled With DURAN 6/13/2016. Dominican Republic, DO

ORIGINAL POST

And so it begins! I just got my date confirmation...

WORTH IT$4,800
And so it begins! I just got my date confirmation with Duran today for July 2nd at 6am. I went through Bella Vita because I had emailed and called Duran since the summer of 2014. Maybe I wasn't stalker enough because some girls do get through. But, once I saw I only had 4 months before July (the only month I can go to D.R) I went ahead and gladly paid Bella Vita the $200. I knew that whatever month we were on Duran was scheduling 3 months from that thanks to all the ladies who reviewed the doctor on here.

I know some of you are like you're stupid for paying Bella Vita for a quote. But the way I see it, the girls at Bella Vita do more than just get your quote. I've seen many girls here who get their quotes through Duran herself and then find themselves waiting months for Duran to confirm a date or to let her know the deposit is sent I didn't have that hassle. That's 1. Number 2 they can guide you through all the unknowns, I didnt really need that because I'm Dominican and I have family out there. And 3 many many doctors don't bother with emails at all. You have to go for an in person consult and pay for that initial appt. So I take it as "hey I paid for my hassle free consultation" lol. Not to mention that the surgery cost is already pretty low that to risk not getting yours for $200 is absurd.

Duran is already scheduling into July ladies. So keep that in mind.

A little about me:

I'm having a BBL with liposuction and a TT.
I weigh 168lbs.
Height 5'9".
Bust: 40"
Waist: 36"
Hips: 37"

Ms. Lovely the only thing I can tell you is to stalk Duran on her facebook, twitter, instagram, whatsapp, email, and phones daily, or just pay Bellavita their website is http://www.bellavitaconsultants.com.

Sorry about that Candyvelour that was not a reply to you. In response to your question yes I was quoted in USD, so the GBP will be like twice this number. As for how you can go about it overseas, you can stalk Duran on her many communication outlets like I told Ms. Lovely or go through Bellavitaconsultants.com. If you're worried about the money and how you will send it, if you go through Bellavita they will have you send it to their bank account for a fee and I imagine she will either exchange the money into dollars for you, or maybe you will have to go to one of those tourist exchange houses, perhaps you can do what I did and deposit the money to Duran through a company called Ria money transfer. https://www.riamoneytransfer.com/ria-locator they are very reputable, they have offices in london maybe you can pop in one day and ask if you send money can the person get it in dollars or maybe they can point you in the right direction. I didn't deposit my money through Bellavita's bank because they wanted $45.00 for the wire. My bank wanted $20 which is not bad but Ria charged me $5.00! And I did it all online.

How I got my quote, confirmed my date and sent my deposit

Like I said in my first entry I went through Bellavita to get my quote because after 8 months of constantly trying to contact Duran... I got nothing. So I just wanted to briefly outline the steps and attach pictures, hopefully realself will not delete anything as I believe my last post had parts deleted where I wrote about having twins and why that is the reason my stomach is like a deflated mylar balloon, but I digress...
Step 1: I went to bellavitaconsultants.com, wrote them on March 4th, 2015 at 6am through their contact us link and got an automated response at 10am which I have pictured above.
Step 2: I filled out the client registration form that was attached to automated email and sent it back on March 9th, 2015 to Bellavita with my 3 before pics and 3 wish pics. Pictured above.
Step 3: On March 12th, 2015 I received an email stating I was a candidate for elective surgery pending further approval from the doctor and confirmation from BV that they received my form and pics and shortly after received an invoice to pay the $200 fee pictured above.
Step 4: I paid the fee through paypal on March 12, 2015.
Step 5: I received my quote, instructions on how to deposit money into Durans account, and instructions in relation to pre and post op care on March 29th, 2015 pictured above. Now I know that it was 2 weeks and a 1/2 before I got my quote but in their defense Jazmine, the head of bellavita and the one who was coordinating my case, was sick around the time as per her Instagram. So Im not trying to defame or tout anyones business I'm just putting the facts of my journey. But I am comprehensible enough to understand her being ill. Either way I'm happy because I got my quote!!! :D
Step 6: I sent my deposit through an independent money wiring agency March 30, 2015(Dominicans know all about this! Lol we have family in the Dominican Republic we wire money to and we use agencies around the way to do so) BV wanted $45 to deposit money from their bank to Durans and it was a bit steep for me considering my bank only wanted $20, and then I thought about how my mother sends money out there and I was able to wire it for $5!!! I don't know if I can post the name of the agency here because of the terms and conditions or what not but if you're interested you can inbox me privately they're very popular and reputable and I did my wire online.
Step 7: I sent a copy of my Duran deposit receipt to BV. Pictured above. And I kind of f'd this part up, because the money is supposed to be sent in dollars and I sent it in pesos like a dummy please keep that in mind. The money wire agency I used has the option of depositing money in dollars but I didn't notice that button when I did it. You live and learn.
Step 8: I was reprimanded a bit by BV for sending money in pesos lol but they still got me my date confirmed! As pictured above. All she said was take the deposit money with me to DR just in case but my date is set by Duran for July 2, 2015 as pictured.

Now onto the rest of my planning... Supplements, supplies, passport renewal, flight, and recovery places. Until next time thanks for following my journey!

No, the $4800 only covers the BBL with Lipo and the TT. INCLUDED in the quote: Costs: Admission into the surgical clinic, anesthetic drugs, medicines [in the hospital] use per hour of surgery room, gastable material, one night stay at the clinic, operating costs, one post surgical compression garment, and all post surgical follow up appointments. Now, as far as the Robles deaths these are the two girls I heard of. Janie Jewell and Venus O'neill However when I saw the news coverage: http://www.noticiassin.com/2015/02/cierran-clinica-estetica-cecip-por-muerte-de-paciente-tras-cirugias-plastica/ it only said a 35 year old nurse (Venus O'neill was a nurse) and it doesn't mention the doctor... but on facebook there's a man who claims to be Venus O'neill's husband who confirms Robles was the doctor. I did NOT see any news reports on Janie... That being said doll, you and all of us need to do our homework and then go with our gut instinct. We don't know under which circumstances the death happened, and we also need to remember it can happen anywhere. At the end of the day you know your body and what it can handle, and if you hear rumors and feel funny then make the choice guided by the feeling. http://elnacional.com.do/muere-otra-mujer-por-cirugia-estetica/ http://www.obitsforlife.com/obituary/1059548/ONeill-Venus.php http://www.listindiario.com/la-republica/2008/1/19/44869/Hospital-Gautier-ha-reimplantado-dos-manos-a-jovenes-en-19-dias-16-casos

That listindiario article is the only one that explocitly mentions Dra. Walkiris Robles that I could find anywhere on the web, and it's a positive one about reconstructing two peoples hands after an incident with a machete
