BBL, Lipo and Breast Lift - Coming to Ya Dr Leon

ORIGINAL POST

Hey Ladies, Let me start with a very brief...

WORTH IT$7,200
Hey Ladies,
Let me start with a very brief introduction. I'm 37 yrs, with 3 children, the youngest my 6 year old princess. I've had 4 previous cosmetic procedures done in the past, all over here in the U.K. (During the period of 2004 - 2016.
Honestly, none of the procedures fulfilled the desired results I was hoping to achieve. I've always had a very honest, realistic attitude towards my expected results (as these surgeons aren't magicians!! Haaa)
However, I feel that over here in the U.K. the surgeons aren't as experienced in creating a more curvier, sculptured body shape as you'll find overseas.
Earlier this year, I decided to start my search for a surgeon abroad.
My first point was Turkey (Elite aftercare) I came across this clinic via social media.
I doubt, very much I would of chosen Elite as I didn't feel confident that the surgeons would achieve the hourglass figure I'm hoping for.
Which brings me to Dr Leon.
The reasons why I've chosen him is frankly down to his perfection in his craft!!!
My cousin travelled to the Dominican Republic during the time I was researching Turkey. She had a few procedures done including the body scalping, bbl & liposuction. I was completely blown away by her results!! She looks fantastic.
I saw her 3 months post surgery. Her waist is still defined, her bbl (butt) was still full & perfectly sculptured. Your most probably thinking... "well obviously after a cosmetic procedure its normal for your results to improve in time!! Lol
Well, that wasn't the case for me with the procedures i had here in the U.K which included a bbl & Lipo, I experienced the total opposite!!
Day 1 of my surgery my results fantastic, however a few weeks later you would never have thought I had liposuction around my flanks and tummy area and as for my bbl (Butt) waste of time. My results had gone! back to a flat bottom!!!!!
Bearing in mind I followed all instructions given by the surgeons: To wear the waist training garment and eat healthy.
Following my cousins trip to Dr Leon, another one of my cousins booked to see him a few months after for a mommy make over she also looks amazing.
One of my friends has recently returned back last week. Again,
Dr Leon did an amazing job on her also.
I have read and seen loads of pictures and online reviews of Dr Leon which helped me feel at ease and reassured that I'm making the right choice.
I finalised my decision to choose
Dr Leon after seeing my friend and cousins and hearing their positive feedback back about Dr Leon, his aftercare team etc.
Of course, speaking to Dr Leon himself made me feel 100% confident that I'm certainly making the right decision by choosing him.
I contacted Georgina his assistant via whatsapp. By the end of the day she replied & it was all smooth sailing from then onwards.
I'm booked for my procedure January 2018 ???? 3 weeks to go!!
I'm really feeling anxious as I've never travelled alone.. this will be the first time I'll be traveling without my hubby, kids, friends etc???? & I'm terrified of flying!! ???? I have to stop off twice there and coming back so I'm sure I will conquer my fears of flying by the time I return back to the U.K ;))
Thank you for your time Ladies :))
I'll keep you all updated of my journey along the way... X

Hi ladies,
I'm back!!!!!! :))) sorry about the delay with my update.
Okay, so I'm not going to go into a long story about my journey to the airport, getting on the plane, arriving at the recovery house, how I felt the morning of my procedure, blahhh blahhh blahh
Honestly, it's all a little vague. I don't have the time to recall my thoughts of my journey step by step I'd rather get straight to the important parts like my results ????????????
So I went to Dominican Republic with the intention of having 3 procedures - BBL, tummy tuck and a breast lift (Mommy makeover) However on the morning of my procedure I was informed by Dr Leon that due to my iron levels being slightly low I'll have to choose 2 out of the 3 procedures.????
OH MY F**KING GOSH!! ???????? As u could imagine I was absolutely gutted!!! Now the reason being.... I bombarded Georgina his assistant with messages asking for feedback from
Dr Leon on whether I should start taking supplements right up to the last week of me flying out..... ????ANYWAY.... I can feel my blood pressure raising so I won't go into detail.... In short, she kept promising she'll get round to asking Dr Leon however I didn't receive a response.
Even though I didn't top up on supplements prior to my arrival, I didn't have any doubts regarding my blood levels. I had forwarded my full blood results twice to Georgina & Dr Leon who confirmed my blood levels were all fine???????????
Anyway, I decided to go with the breast lift and BBL. I felt very upset and emotional having to make that decision as this wasn't apart of the plan!!!! ????????
I had waited months for this mommy makeover, I was so ready, so prepared and filled with excitement to now feeling deflated and having to come to terms that my results may not be as expected!
Dr Leon explained the severity of having surgery with low iron levels, he answered all my questions, showed empathy and reassured me that he'll give me the best result possible!
He honestly made me feel so much better. I may have initially felt upset but without a doubt that was the right decision for my health.
I have a huge amount of respect for Dr Leon????????
Well as for my results!!! I'm sooooo happy! :)))
I can definitely see a difference.
Without a doubt.. Dr Lon has definitely given me more of a result from this one round of surgery with him then I've had from 3 cosmetic surgery procedures over here in the UK.
I'm very happy with my body shape that Dr Leon has created however I would like to add some more fat to my hips and my buttocks. I believe having both breast and BBL together puts a lot of pressure on the end result of your buttocks. Your having to sleep and rest on back / buttocks as your unable to do so on your front / breast. The rules of recovery after fat transfer to your buttocks is to ensure you don't sit or sleep on your back / buttocks for at least 2/3 weeks. That's why I plan to go back to Dr Leon in December for one more round of BBL to achieve the best of my results this time round by sticking to the "No sitting on bum rule"
As for my bread I love them :)) still can't believe how high and firm they are. I'm so used to my breast touching my belly button!! Lol
I had enough breast tissue to do my lift without implants.
I honestly believe once I've seen him
again in December that will be the finishing touches to complete my body shape.
I'll upload some pictures Xxxx

Hey hun, I too am looking at Dr. Leon for my procedures needed. YOU LOOK AWESOME!!!! Congratulations! Since the doctor didn't do all the procedures previously agreed upon, did he refund you any of your money or charge you less?? Just curious on how that works in this situation. Thanks in advance!

How do the scars from the lift look?
December 1, 2018
Your results look fantastic!! Dr Leon is the best, hands down! He's the total package! Providing excellent results, wonderful clinical skills, AND great bedside manner! You can tell he really cares about each and every patient. I had surgery with him in 2015. I did the bbl and tummy tuck. I've been wanting to go back for round 2, to have a breast lift. My only reservation is regarding loss of nipple sensation. I'd heard this happens sometimes with breast augmentation. Have you found this to be true?
