Know Your Worth! - Santo Domingo, RD

Well, it's approaching 7 months since my surgery. Unfortunately, my results haven't improved. My sides are still noticeably uneven & I'm unhappy with the shape of my ass. I did achieve some projection but my ass is now wider than it was pre-op. However, I am happy that I did have a tummy tuck. My incision is low & healed well. I still experience swelling & numbness but I do get relief from my daily wear of my "faja". I've decided to have a revision but will not be returning to Dr. Goico.
I've learned many lessons during this journey. Main one being that not every surgeon is for everybody. I had done extensive research prior to choosing Dr. Goico & will do the same for my future surgeon. I was disappointed with the response that I recieved from him when he learned of my review & the overall satisfaction rating I gave him but with the support I recieved from this community & IG, I moved on. I definitely recommend following up with groups such as IG, Facebook & any other social media surgery group on the Dr you're interested in. It can be a wealth of information & insight on various surgeons. Nonetheless, it has been a learning experience & now I will go back to the drawing board while continuing to eat well & exercise. It has definitely been a life changing experience. I strive to give an honest & objective review but keep in mind it is my review & we all will have different experiences.

I am 3 months post op & already planning a round 2. Although I am extremely happy not to have a fupa, I am not satisfied with my results thus far. My sides are uneven which seem indicative to me that one side recieved more aggressive lipo than the other. Dr Goico was able to give me some projection but the shape I desired is still lacking. I was initially happy with my hips but it seems that the side that had the infection went down some. Overall, I find that he excels with slimmer patients. Plus size females should consider other options. I did inform him of my concerns & he advised me to be patient & give it more time since its only been 3 months. Because of his excellent work with breasts, I considered returning to him & he agreed to do any revisions necessary if these were still outstanding concerns for me. I still think he is a competent surgeon & his bedside manner & professionalism make him a great find. However, I've learned from my research & experience that every surgeon has their strengths & weaknesses. For example, if you're looking for a large booty...then Cabral is your man. While Yily is known for her plus size makeovers. Point is...do your research!
