DR. Yily July 9th 2013!!!!

HI ladies, I will be traveling to Santo...

HI ladies,

I will be traveling to Santo Domingo this July to get the signature Yily lipo & grafting done. This will be the 3rd time that I will be traveling to DR for nip/ tuck and such. I was originally ok (not ecstatic) with my tt & lipo work until one day I was searching for a PS to do my scar revision and came across Yily's work.. I immediately turned to my fiance and said.. Babe, just one more time I promise!! lmaaoo

I usually travel with him and he cares for me very well but I'm thinking I would like to take this trip on my own. Possibly buddy up and save the cash on the extra flight and food..ect

My only real concern is the recent reports of money being stolen and having to pay with a credit card. I have been a victim of identity theft/ credit card fraud in the past so I am always skeptical and have always opted to pay cash instead.


This will not be an option if I travel on my own because I sure as hell am not traveling with thousands of $$ in my pocket and trying to withdraw this kind of money overseas is a nightmare. I know that Yily has a paypal account and chase but I would rather not pay in full before hand because this leaves little room for any discounts the day of ;)


So I just wanted to start a July 2013 roll call to encourage those of us who are a little skeptical of traveling on our own.

Thanks. You are all amazing!!

im looking to go last week in May or the first week in June. I am ready to send my deposit as soon as she confirms the date i chose is open. i am a little skeptical of traveling with thousands of dollars as well...and i also want to make sure my personal items are safe while im under the knife. id dread waking up and my passport is gone lol! ive never been abroad before so i guess these are rational fears!

lol I will be leaving my passport in my luggage and taking a second form of i.d. to register at the clinic.I read in one of the blogs that one of the ladies registered with a student i.d. because that is all they had at the time. Hope this takes some of the anxiety away! Best of luck & keep us posted!!

I am looking to go in June or July and I'm also scared of going on my own, I've never gone out of the country or I've never been on a plane lol. I emailed her on Sunday and I'm going to wait a bit if not then I'll be calling. I had chosen a surgeon in texas but not I'm trying to go with Dr Yily. I want to get a tummy tuck and a bbl.I know its going to be painful having both done at the same time

Hi BeStrong, Honestly the pain is not that bad as long as Yily prescribes good pain meds. You will just be uncomfortable for a few days. I will definitely be purchasing the pain meds that I was prescribed the last two times that I had sx in DR. The best part is that in DR all meds are over the counter! You just have to shop around for a good price or send a local to buy it for you because they will overcharge you once they figure out you are a foreigner. Best of luck on your sx!!

That would be awesome Mrs.HTx :) I had requested June 10-24 off from work cuz those are the only 2 weeks I can take off in June. If Yily doesn't have anything around the 10th I'm gng to have to schedule sx for July :( I'm waiting for her reply too. I hope I don't have to go thru this by myself.

Hi DRdiamond6, how did you get a hold of Dr. Yily or how did you get you appointment set up because I have emailed them 3x already. I sent my first email last Sunday and I wrote all my emails in Spanish and I even called them and they told me it take 3 to 5 days to get a response. I speak, read, and write Spanish fluently and I thought if I communicated with them in Spanish it will be easier and quicker. Maybe I just need to be patient. I would love to have my surgery in June or July or even August as long as its before I go back to school. Any advice?

Hi BeStrong, Did you get your quote yesterday? She replied to an email I set her March 13th, also Spanish by the way. I've never waited more than 3 days for a reply.. so far anyways lol I did read somewhere that some of the emails with multiple messages are being pulled to the side for whatever reason but I am not sure if this is true. I do know that if you pass the five day mark you can call Yira (her assistant) and sweeten her up and she will pull your email and give it to Yily. Hope this helps!

Hi Drdiamond6 No I haven't heard anything :( this is frustrating. I'm going to call again. Thank you for the advice. I'll let you know what happens :) Hopefully I can get a hold of Yira.

I rented a condo where we will e staying with my mom, my children my aunt will be spending some time with us also to help out... I will be in the country for 20 days. On the 11tg day after surety my husband arrives, I hope I am good enough by then to explore my country with him. I have a couple of day trips planned to Boca Chicca, 2 days at a resort in Juan Dolio and a couple other things with the kids. I will e having lipo in my arms, abs, full back, flanks, bra line, and thighs... I am hoping for a quick recovery since when I did my tummy tuck 6 years ago I was up and going by day 6

Hello, does anyone know if the $500 deposit for Yily is dedcuted from the quote she gives you or is that an additional fee. I was little confused and I asked and all she said was yes but didn't tell to which question lol

Hey dolls Im selling my $500 Yily deposit I am no longer having surgery at this time my family needs me. You could use my $500 deposit on any date you want and need. Just let know in my inbox

Hi Ddiamond, May I ask who did your first BBL? It isn't often that we have ladies who can go that far back to report your experience. You can educate all of us! How long did it take for the fat to absorb, and how much of the original fat did you retain?
